Re: rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c

2004-02-27 Thread Jonathan Hurley



Follow up to my own posting.

I was running rsync with -v and rsync was having problems chowning (not
transferring) files.  I realise now that the error message applied to this
problem. I found the error message a little confusing, as I was trying to
track down the non-transferred files, while knowing all along about the
chowning problem.

rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c

2004-02-26 Thread Jonathan Hurley

I am using rsync to backup a machine with a large number of files, and I
am getting this error.

It would be helpful to know which files this is occuring with, to diagnose
the problem.

Is there a configuration option to rsync (that I may have missed) that
will reveal this info.

Alternatively, is there a source code patch that I could apply to rsync
in order to find out?

Thanks for any help

Jon

Look in the server's log file -- rsync puts some of the messages there
out of paranoia about exposing too much about the server's setup to the
end user.  It may well be that rsync is being too paranoid in this
instance.

Is there any way to *change* that behavior, particularly if rsync is running as root anyway?  That's annoyed me a couple of times myself.

May the file-list is getting a bit to big for rsync?

If I splitt the transfer using

for i in *; do
  rsync -avv --delete --delete-excluded server::public/$i dest/
done
it works seamlessly. The file list is about 50 files long.
This brings up something I've been wondering about.  If I were to 
compose a list of files and pass them to rsync one at a time, what sort 
of overhead would this entail as opposed to simply pointing rsync to a 
directory containing those files?

rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(1045)

2003-12-22 Thread Thomas . Schweikle
Hi!

How can I find out what files wheren't transferred If I have error:

   rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at 
main.c(1045)

running rsync?

I've tried rsync -v[v][v] but had no success. It wasn't possible to make 
sure what where the files producing the error. Any idea?

rsync is version 2.5.7

You might try capturing stderr.

Tried that too, but without success. The only message I see is
IO error encountered - skipping file deletion

Yes.

 B) Is there any specific argument/parameter to supress this message?

No.

 C) Is there any specific patch to fix this problem?

No, because it isn't a bug.  If files disappear mid-transfer
you want to know.  The message is just a warning.  If i
recall correctly there is a patch in CVS that changes the
message.
