Hello all, I have problems with sending data names via rsync including german characters like “ä, ö, ü”. The daemon running on a SLES10. The Rsync version is: 3.0.3, Protocol version:30. My Client is a Windows XP machine with Rsync: 3.0.4 (or alternative 3.0.6), Protocol version:30.
For the conversion between both machines I use the ‘—iconv=850,UTF-8’ – switch. chcp told me that 850 is my codepage on my windowsmachine and locale on Linux said ther UTF-8 is the current code page. Now I use the command Rsync.exe –agzv –-iconv=850,utf8 /cygdrive/source Rsync://destination my output says: Rsync: connection unexpectedly closed <0 bytes received so far> [sender] Rsync error: error in Rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(632) [sender=3.0.4] Same when I edit my rsyncd.conf with ‘charset = utf-8’ and restart the daemon. When I replace my codepage 850 in my command thorugh “ISO88591” Rsync tells me iconv_open(“UTF-8”, “ISO88591”) failed Rsync error: requested action not supported (code 4) at Rsync.c(120) [sender=3.0.4] I tried so many different codepages and combinations, so I think the problem is something I didn’ t consider? Any ideas? Thanking you in anticipation.
