The error code is pretty inconsequential compared to the errors that
come before it.  See what rsync is actually complaining about, and make
sure you know if there is an issue with the remote side or the local
side.

The only known issues of cross-version incompatibility have been fixed.
If you know of any more, please let the list know.

Re: find out the meaning of rsync error code

2009-01-21 Thread Stuart Halliday
I'd recommend that you do a search on the failing systems for duplicate or
old copies of Rsync. It just takes a PATH variable to include another old
copy of rsync to make it fail.

I'd also check your firewall or router aren't the problem. If you need to,
temporary disable the firewall or any AV software as these can be
potential problems.

Also are you using SSH on these systems? Perhaps that isn't working?

I'd start with the very simplest set up and go from there. For example
manually start up a daemon on a remote server and see if a client can
connect to its resources. Try a different port number, some thing may be
blocking the value you're using.


P.S.
No need to send me a personal copy of your reply. I do read the mailing
list. I get quite enough email thanks. :-)

Re: find out the meaning of rsync error code

2009-01-21 Thread Jignesh Shah
I missed one point is that: It is also works between remote sites when
we run rsync as a client-server normally.(i.e.non-daemon mode).

Thanks.

Stuart,

This problem is harassing us since long now. It occurs only when we
run rsync in daemon mode and on remote sites. It works perfectly fine
if source and destination are in same site. We have tried
--blocking-io and also ran rsync manually but still no luck. We are
not able to find what is the actual problem.

Could you please help us here.

Thanks,
Jignesh

Re: find out the meaning of rsync error code

2009-01-20 Thread Stuart Halliday
When I get errors like that I do a manual rsync command via a terminal (or
command prompt) shell which tries to list the contents of either side of
the connection.

This at least shows you if the connection and rsync is working.

ie

rsync -v metatex.org::minimals-temp/test/

or

rsync /cygdrive/c/

See bottom of Man page @ http://www.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsync.html

EXIT Values 12 is:
Error in rsync protocol data stream

I suggest that this may be caused by you using two different versions of
Rsync? Please check that the daemon and client are running the same version.
