rsync: fork failed in do_recv: Cannot allocate memory (12)
This error is happening on the receiving side, and you seem to have only
mentioned the OS and memory for the sending system (I assume -- you
didn't explicitly say). Is the receiving system also running cygwin?
What is its version rsync?
..wayne..
Ahhh The receiving side is a fresh install of Debian, kernel 2.6.8-2
with a whopping 256MB of Ram.
I have 2Mb 'free', no swap (What the heck did I do there? Watch my
confidence start droping drastically :P ) and 5 rsync processes eating
about 35Mb each..
The receiving system is running rsync 2.6.4 protocol v29.
Ok, so I'll throw another 256Mb in there asap - I still don't know why
just changing the sending side's version of rsync would cause the
receiving side to run out of memory..
Thanks
Rick
