Re: Error messages 3.0.6pre1
This is a malloc (memory allocation) error. It shows that a non-aligned pointer (pointer that doesn't start on an address multiple of 4 in a 32-bit machine) is being freed. As pointers must always be aligned, this indicates an error and the function free() doesn't know how to deal with it. But even if it doesn't release the memory at all, there are big chances that rsync ends up the execution normally. The only issue is a possible memory leak that is normally stopped when rsync exit. I didn't look nor am aware of the rsync code, but I guess this could be an issue of 32-bit pointer on a 64-bit machine.

Re: --delete-before doesn't seem to actually be deleting before transfer
Matt McCutchen schrieb: Thanks for the help but I've still had no luck with this. The command now looks like: backupstoremove.py | rsync -av --progress --no-p --no-g --delete-before --stats --include-from=- --include=/media/300GIGHD/backups/dar/restore --exclude="*.dar" /media/300GIGHD/backups/dar/ /media/BACKUPUSBSTICK/backups/ I forgot: the --delete-excluded option is needed so that the exclude does not protect destination directories from deletion. Before you give up, you might want to try again with that option. Thanks, that looks like it's worked. However I've found that the effect is the same as doing an rm -f before the transfer - since --exclude=*.dar it removes all files, even the ones that are --include'd, and then starts the transfer from scratch. Just using rm keeps my script simpler and easier to read. Regards Tim -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

No, rsync will never change anything in de files itself, they should be bit-for-bit exact copies of the original. I suspect that perhaps you're transferring between different operating systems which have differing opinions about how an mbox file should look, particularly what constitutes a line ending.

Lots of "file exists" errors with rsync version 3.0.6
Hi, we have started getting "file exists" ~100s errors every day. I think we never got it with rsync 2.6.9. Is there anything changed in new version that has been generating these errors? Error while syncing /usr/local/theapp/: rsync: symlink "/usr/local/theapp/2009.uv" -> "../thedt.uv" failed: File exists (17) ... Error while syncing /usr/local/theapp/: rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1039) [sender=3.0.6] Am I missing anything?
