cron, rsync and permissions
Hello, I am at my first attempts with scripting, cron, and rsync, so please bear with me... The scope is to backup two servers from a dedicated backup pc, with the following script: mv *.log archive rsync --log-file=oracle.log -av -e ssh -i .ssh/rsync-key [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/gian/exp* oracle/ rsync --log-file=vib_home.log -av --delete --exclude=.*/ -e ssh -i .ssh/rsync-key [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/ vib_home/ rsync --log-file=vib_office.log -av --delete -e ssh -i .ssh/rsync-key [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/office/ vib_office/ This script works fine from the command line, but the last two lines hang with permissions errors when executed as cron job. The cron job is in my user table. First backup from server oracle works fine, because the two files copied are in my home directory, so no permission issues. The second backup hangs with this error: 2008/04/17 02:00:28 [6161] receiving file list 2008/04/17 02:00:28 [6161] rsync: opendir /home/gabri/Maildir failed: Permission denied (13) 2008/04/17 02:00:28 [6161] rsync: opendir /home/enzo/Maildir failed: Permission denied (13) 2008/04/17 02:00:28 [6161] rsync: opendir /home/enzo/Mail failed: Permission denied (13) 2008/04/17 02:00:28 [6161] rsync: opendir /home/francesco/Maildir failed: Permission denied (13) 2008/04/17 02:00:28 [6161] rsync: opendir /home/deborah/Maildir failed: Permission denied (13) 2008/04/17 02:00:28 [6161] rsync: opendir /home/deborah/mail failed: Permission denied (13) 2008/04/17 02:00:28 [6161] rsync: opendir /home/lost+found failed: Permission denied (13) 2008/04/17 02:00:28 [6161] rsync: opendir /home/william/Maildir failed: Permission denied (13) 2008/04/17 02:00:28 [6161] rsync: opendir /home/faxmaster/Maildir failed: Permission denied (13) 2008/04/17 02:00:28 [6161] rsync error: errors with program diagnostics (code 13) at log.c(230) [receiver=2.6.9] I do not have read permissions for the folders above, but I can read all the rest. Why rsync aborts? The third backup reports this: 2008/04/17 02:00:33 [6163] receiving file list 2008/04/17 02:00:33 [6163] rsync: opendir /office/lost+found failed: Permission denied (13) 2008/04/17 02:00:33 [6163] rsync error: errors with program diagnostics (code 13) at log.c(230) [receiver=2.6.9] The same here. I have read permissions for all folders excepting for lost+found. Why rsync gives up on the first error? As I said, launching ./backup.sh from command line the script warns about permission errors, but goes on. Thanks for your time, cheers, -Gian -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
expand file_list pointer array
G'Day, rsync 3.0 to 3.2 is giving us trouble, keeps failing at certain points, latest error is :- expand file_list pointer array to 262144 bytes, did move I see this code is in flist.c, but why are we getting this and how to avoid it ? we are syncing from svn.

That's not an error, that's an informational message. If you don't like it, don't use such a high level of verbosity. You might also make sure that rsync is using its incremental recursion algorithm (e.g. make sure both sides of the connection use rsync 3.x). ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
DO NOT REPLY [Bug 5401] New: getpassf() should honor strict modes
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5401 Summary: getpassf() should honor strict modes Product: rsync Version: 3.0.3 Platform: All OS/Version: OS/2 Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P3 Component: core AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] QAContact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Porting to platforms without true stat() support would be simpler if getpassf() (authentic.c) honored the strict modes option. The code would be similar to the existing code in get_secret(). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

The getpassf() function is a client function, so the two are not related. It might be nice to have a way to make the client strict -- perhaps a configure option. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

A configure option would be handy. For now, we will just patch it out with an #ifdef.

Rsync Error Code 23
Hi, Is it possible to log rsync error messages and read them in console (Mac OS 10.5 Utility), or perhaps a text file? I have tried running my script in verbose mode -vv but I really don't want to read all 1000+ lines of output to look for the error code. Currently my script looks something like this: rsync -aE --delete --progress ~/(Entire Home Directory) /Volumes/(My backup drive) Thanks, Ken -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
