Re: Rsync stops inmid of synchronisation
LMH, thank you for your hints. So I checked all the drives and files and they're good, as well as the other hardware. Also the file's permissions are good. The idea to sync just one folder after the other is good. It turned out that those few folders with many smaller files (up to 35000 files, mainly man pages) cause the hang of rsync often, but not always because with a certain chance these folders sync fine. That makes it very hard to find the real error. My syncing script now uses separate rsync commands (i.e. lines in the script) for all the problematic folders in contrast to before where all the folders have been separated by spaces in one rsync command. In combination with rsync's timeout parameter (see below please) only those rsync commands with an offending folder are being skipped when the timeout happens, so that the remaining rsync commands can continue to run. This is an improvement. :-) This is what I found out in detail, so far: - If I rsync the problematic folder to a local device, rsync always runs fine! - If I rsync the same problematic folder to the remote computer (on a local network), the problematic folder makes the sending rsync to hang often. So it can't be a problem with the files, it must be some rsync network stuff causing the hang. - If I add the --dry-run parameter, then interestingly rsync hangs too at about the same position in the problematic folder, i.e. without actually having send content data (just information data?) to the receiver. - So is it the sender or receiver which causes the hang? I think the sender, because when I add the rsync parameter --timeout=30 the rsync command is being terminated/skipped at the offending folder and continues with the next rsync command in the script. When however I use the parameter --contimeout=30 instead, the scripts waits forever -- as it happens with no timeout parameter. So in the end I still don't see what's going on, unfortunately. -Richard LMH wrote: One thing to check is the disk drives. I have had rsync stop when it reaches corrupted sectors, especially if those sectors corrupt part of the file system. I don't remember anything helpful in the log files, I just noticed that it wasn't finishing. Try running disk diagnostic software and make sure your hardware is good. What kind of hard drives do you have and what OS? If that doesn't show up anything, I would start by synching just one folder. Create a test folder on both computers and add a few files. Make sure your permissions are correct. Make a change in one file and then run rsync. If it finishes and the logs look good, add more to the test folder and see if you can find where it brakes. You can test things like very large files, and folders with a large number of files. If you can't get it to fail, then the issue may be with the data on one of the computers. The problem may also be with the rsync software, but I can't advise well on that end.

Re: 1.7.10 : output from .NET programs does not get through pipeline
Hi all, I started observing some very strange effects when launching .NET programs from cygwin, after upgrading to version 1.7.10. The example below is using the MSBuild.exe as an example, but I get analogous results with any console program compiled for .NET. One can see that each pipeline works normally exactly once. The second time the pipe does not bring anything.

There's no such option. Shift+End will get you back to the current output after looking at something in the scrollback, as will any keypress that sends something to the terminal. Any chance to implement this? Automatic scroll-to-bottom is a useful feature, IMHO. I disagree. The point of being able to scroll back to earlier output is to read and perhaps copy something. When doing that, having the scrollback jump back to the bottom without the user asking for it is rather unhelpful. The Windows console does this, and I always found it really frustrating. THat's why this is an option in xterm. Every use has another idea how the terminal should behave in this regard, I guess. I'd also appreciate very much implementing that option. mintty is promoted here as a replacement for rxvt but obviously lacks a functionality I've come to depend on. My use case is a terminal window in which I don't do much but where a lot of background jobs regularly produce output. A quick glance at the window tells me the current status of those jobs. Not with mintty anymore. Same with the classic use case tail -f logfile. What you describe above sounds more like mintty allowing a visible end of output to scroll off the bottom without following it, a behavior I've never observed and which would arguably be a bug. That's not what I said. When I fire up something that produces copious output (gcc bootstrap, compile emacs, etc.) mintty scrolls to track end-of-output unless I purposefully scroll upward Right, same here. Turning on scroll-to-bottom would change that. It scrolls to bottom immediately. (in which case I'd prefer it to stay put long enough to read/copy the text rather than immediately jumping me back to end-of-output). That depends on what I am doing in such a terminal. I might have a tail -f /var/log/messages in that session on a system with low syslog activity. I want to be notified immediately if there is output and don't mind being interrupted. Once the scrollbar is set back to bottom, it again tracks end-of-output. Correct. And that's the step I want to skip. The si-option does exactly that. Am I missing something? Or do your background jobs just produce output really infrequently compared to 'make all'? In this case yes, but I also like scroll-to-bottom if there's more output. The latter is the only way I can see reading stuff from the past and scroll-to-bottom coexisting peacefully They usually won't. That’s why this should be an option and not the default. Most of the behaviour discussed in this thread can be achieved or emulated using screen (notification on activity, scroll and output logging at will, etc). Might be useful to take a look at it. -- Huella de clave primaria: AD8F BDC0 5A2C FD5F A179 60E7 F79B AB04 5299 EC56 signature.asc Description: Digital signature

The URL for your site is, and has been, correct in the mirrors list. But, as I said, your site has actually not been listed for a while since it was apparently not up to date. I don't know why the user had it wrong but I don't have any evidence that it was ever wrong in the official mirrors list. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
