There are two things that bring that message.  One is the inability to 
chroot.  I think non-chrootable operating systems get their rsync 
configured so it never tries (and therefore, never fails).  If you're on a 
real OS, you might be initiating the daemon as a non-root user (uid in the 
module doesn't matter).

The more common cause, though, is an error in the "path = /whatever" entry 
for a module.  You can't chroot to a place that doesn't exist.
