Summary: Rsync fails with older version. Product: rsync Version: 3.1.1 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 Component: core AssignedTo: way...@samba.org ReportedBy: r.e.wo...@bitwizard.nl QAContact: rsync...@samba.org Does not work: Trusty Tahr. Rsync version 3.1.0 Protocol version 31 DOES work: Saucy rsync version 3.0.9 protocol version 30 In both cases: "server side": Suse 7.0 version 2.3.2 protocol version 21 with both "client" side rsyncs I of course get: > Server is very old version of rsync, upgrade recommended. but with the newer rsync I get: Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding. Server is very old version of rsync, upgrade recommended. protocol version mismatch - is your shell clean? (see the rsync man page for an explanation) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [Receiver] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(226) [Receiver=3.1.0] According to the manpage I can test the "is your shell clean" with ssh oldserver /usr/bin/true > out.dat but I get a clean file (0 bytes). I just checked: the "no xauth data" doesn't matter: rsync -e "ssh -x" vsuse:/etc/issue . has the same problems. The Ubuntu guys asked me to report this here.... I used "git bisect" for the first time. The commit that caused this problem is: [8b3e60523aa3d86583a1df54c81c9d480ea19740] Improved the fix that ensures that the generator gets notified about an I/O error for the incremental directory that generated the error. The PROTOCOL_VERSION was bumped to 31 to implement this. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsync/+bug/1300768 for my original ubuntu bugreport. (but mostly copy-pasted here). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
