Re: [BackupPC-users] fileListReceive failed

2014-07-08 Thread Elodie Chapeaublanc
Hi,

Actually I use the following version of rsync for the server and the 
ubuntu client:

rsync --version
rsync  version 3.0.9  protocol version 30


My RsyncArgs are :

$Conf{RsyncArgs} = [
   '--numeric-ids',
   '--perms',
   '--owner',
   '--group',
   '-D',
   '--links',
   '--hard-links',
   '--times',
   '--block-size=2048',
   '--recursive',
   '--checksum-seed=32761',
   '--one-file-system',
   ''
];

$Conf{RsyncRestoreArgs} = [
   '--numeric-ids',
   '--perms',
   '--owner',
   '--group',
   '-D',
   '--links',
   '--hard-links',
   '--times',
   '--block-size=2048',
   '--relative',
   '--ignore-times',
   '--recursive',
   '--one-file-system',
   '--checksum-seed=32761',
   ''
];


Concerning my in/excludes :

I have no folder for the server configuration.

For My Ubuntu machine, I have :
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [
   'Documents_win',
   'home',
   'etc',
   'var',
   'data'
];


$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
   'home' = [
 'echapeaublanc/Dropbox',
 'echapeaublanc/.local',
 'echapeaublanc/ici-clone',
 'echapeaublanc/.gvfs',
 'echapeaublanc/.cache'
   ]
};


Extract of my Rsyncd.conf :

[Documents_win]
path = /media/OS/Users/echapeaublanc/Documents/data_windows/

[home]
 path = /home/

[etc]
 path = /etc/
[var]
 path =/var/

[data]
 path =/media/DATA/


Yes I added some folders after the first try because  I had some access 
errors.

Yes I have the same error on the other machine.

But your error is coming from the remote side.   The older protocol
negotiated by backuoppc is going to force it to load the whole

Hi all,

Of course after having mailed to this list about how good BackupPC is and how
it worked flawlessly, I ran into a problem with one of our ancient
SGI-machines. The error I get is seen below.

full backup started for directory /etc
Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root xxx.yyy.zzz.nnn
/usr/sbin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D 
--links
 --hard-links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive --ignore-times . /etc/
Xfer PIDs are now 16088
Got remote protocol 1920169263
Fatal error (bad version): /usr/sbin/rsync
Read EOF:
Tried again: got 0 bytes
fileListReceive() failed
Done: 0 files, 0 bytes
Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive failed)
Backup aborted (fileListReceive failed)

First problem was that it couldn't find the rsync executable, but I managed 
to
track it down and change the path in this particular machine's setup page in
BackupPC.

After that, I got the above error message. Here however, I'm not entirely 
sure
what's causing the failed fileListReceive command. I have a hunch it might be
a case of BackupPC looking in the wrong place for something, just as with the
former rsync executabel, but what?

Unfortunately I'm not that into Irix at all, but know enough to know that it
isn't quite like normal linux.

Would anybody who has any insights in Irix please give me a hint or two as 
how
to fix this?

What's worse, there is no dmesg, as I know of in Irix, as suggested on 
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/backuppc/index.php?title=Troubleshooting#fileListReceive_failed...

Valid protocol numbers should be 30 or lower; backuppc must negotiate 28 or 
lower.  Something is very wrong here.

First, make sure that there is nothing like a message-of-the-day generating 
output from the shell before rsync starts.  That's a common problem but I'm not 
sure if it causes this issue.  You should be able to test with some rsync 
commands from the backuppc server command line to see if it works at all.  If 
not and you have a compiler, I'd try to build a newer version from source.  Or 
switch to tar as the xfer method.  For that you need the gnu version of tar 
which may be named gtar if you have it at all.

Sorry, missed replying to your original message, but from memory (on
linux systems) it seems to suggest that when backuppc logs into your
irix machine and attempts to run rsync, it is getting some input from a
shell or other login script instead of input from rsync binary. You
might try to login to the backuppc machine as the backuppc user, and run
the command ssh r...@irix id and make sure you do not get *ANY* output
other than root. If you get any other output track down what is
causing it, and remove it.

Thanks. It would seem that using tar instead with this machine might be
easier. 

I'll try it out and see what I get, and then post back when and if.

 This part implies that you're exceeding rsync's MAXPATHLEN -- in other
 words, the path you're trying to transfer is bigger than what rsync can
 accept (on one end or the other.)

Re: [BackupPC-users] (fileListReceive failed)

2010-01-21 Thread Michael Stowe

It is [unfortunately] compiled in, but this comes from the OLDNEWS file on
my distribution:

- Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where
  MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin).

So it may suffice to upgrade to a later version.  It's defined in
rsync.h but would typically be set by the build platform.

 So is there any way I can change rsync's MAXPATHLEN ? I have a look at
 the config file but I can seem to see it any where ?

 Any help would be greatly appriceated.

I realize you have switched to gtar, but just for the record, the
reason it is failing is that the ssh command generates this output

/usr/sbin/rsync

instead of quietly running rsync.  So something on that machine
(.bashrc, ssh debug etc?) is printing the command before it
executes it.

 2010-01-18 15:53:42 Backup failed on law98 (fileListReceive failed)

This part implies that you're exceeding rsync's MAXPATHLEN -- in other
words, the path you're trying to transfer is bigger than what rsync can
accept (on one end or the other.)

 this much tells you
 - ssh authentication is working (without prompt or extraneous output)
 - sudo invocation is working (without prompt or welcome message)
 - sudo isn't complaining about requiretty being set ;-).

 That's good.

   
 Here is the config for that machine:
   

 Thank you for including it. Looks good to me (except that your excludes are
 not specific to a share, so you're excluding '/u01/media', '/u01/mnt',
 '/u01/proc' and '/u01/sys', but that probably does no harm - it's not the
 problem in any case).

   
 Both machines have the same version of rsync(rsync-3.0.3-1.el4.rf) and 
   

 Note that BackupPC uses File::RsyncP, so the BackupPC server machine is, in
 fact, *not* using 3.0.3. We see a negotiated protocol version 28 above, and
 File::RsyncP reportedly works with rsync version 3, so that is *probably* not
 the issue, though I wouldn't rule it out completely.

 Try running the closest 'rsync -essh ...' command you can use 
 from the backuppc server command line as the backuppc user.
 

 Which would be

   rsync -e ssh --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links \
   --hard-links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive --one-file-system \
   --ignore-times --exclude=/media --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/proc \
   --exclude=/sys [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/ /tmp/foo

 Please note:
 We are not testing 'ssh' or 'sudo' - they work (see above). I would actually
 run that as root (locally and remote), because you want a full file list to be
 generated on the remote side (which probably won't work for user backuppc),
 and local warning messages about skipped devices (you aren't excluding /dev -
 you might want to ;-) would only be confusing.

 You might even want to choose a copy destination below TopDir instead of
 /tmp/foo, just to have tested writing to the file system in question, though
 BackupPC is quite clearly not getting that far before the error occurs - and
 you are going to interrupt the process once it starts anyway (though / is
 not the bulk of your 100GB, I suppose). The command does not seem to give any
 output, so you'll have to check the copy destination to find out if anything
 is happening. Alternatively, you could add '-P' or '-v' switches, but you'd be
 changing the command, and that could have an influence on whether it works or
 not (probably not, but who knows?).

 Regards,
 Holger

   
I can run the rsync command on the client machine and it creates root 
level directories, but if I try to run it from the backuppc server then 
I get:

Disconnecting: Corrupted MAC on input.
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (1300700 bytes received so far) 
[receiver]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(635) 
[receiver=3.0.3]
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (391 bytes received so far) 
[generator]
rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(635) [generator=3.0.3]

This is the only circumstance in which I've had any problem with ssh on 
either machine.  Google suggests that this error is indicative of a 
machine-wide ssh problem.  I'm able to ssh to the client machine as root 
and as the BackupPC user without any errors.  Am I to take from these 
errors that ssh is breaking and causes the rsync errors that follow?

Is all I get regardless of how long I let it run(including the

doesn't change, so it doesn't seem to be backing up anything.

this is output generated by your shell startup process. Non-interactive shells
should probably never generate *any* output (except perhaps on fatal errors),
as this will commonly lead to problems (not only within BackupPC).

Craig Barratt wrote on 10.02.07 [[BackupPC-users] Strange Backuppc Problem with

 The most likely cause is that root's .cshrc (or equivalent) is doing
 an stty.  You should change it so that it doesn't do an stty on a
 non-login shell.  For csh/tcsh you could do something like this
 
 if ( ! $?USER || $prompt ==  || ! $?term ) then
 # done for non-interactive shell
 exit

 prior to running login-shell commands like stty.

As it turned out, in that case it was something different (though in your
case the above may apply).

There are other commands (and shells and startup processes ...) that could
lead to the same problem, but these two examples might give you a hint what
to look for.

 Fatal error (bad version): stdin: is not a tty

The remote shell says stdin: is not a tty.  An rsync version
is expected instead, hence the error.

I suspect you have an stty in bbBackup's .login (or .bashrc etc).
There was some recent discussion on the mail list about how to
stop .bashrc or .cshrc processing for non-login shells.

 I am brand new at using BackupPc. It took a while to figure it out but I

 For the heck of it, I told it (the Linux box that runs BackupPC - runs Fedora 
 FC6) to backup itself. I made a custom config.pl and set $Conf{XferMethod} = 
 'rsync'. This morning, it has this error called fileListReceive failed. 
 This log file says this:
 
 2007-02-06 16:40:22 full backup started for directory / 
 2007-02-06 16:40:23 Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive failed) 
 2007-02-06 16:40:28 Backup aborted (fileListReceive failed) 
 
 I read through the help file as well as googled the error but can't find the 
 fix. Like I said in another post, I don't know a lot about Linux...just 
 tryign to learn.

You didn't say what version of BackupPC and File::RsyncP you were using.

If BackupPC is  3.0.0 or File::RsyncP  0.68 then you should
replace --devices with -D in $Conf{RsyncArgs} and $Conf{RsyncRestoreArgs}

Please send the contents of the XferLOG file.  Most likely the
ssh keys are not setup correctly.

Re: [BackupPC-users] fileListReceive failed, ruled out a dirty shell, what next?

2006-06-14 Thread Troy Davis
 I learnt a couple of days ago that when using rsync 2.6.8 you need  
 to change --devices to -D in your config file. That fixed it for me.

 Nils.

Excellent, that did the trick. Thanks Nils!

Is there any updates in the works for BackupPC? If so, it would be  
great if this change was included in the next release.

Thank You,
Troy
