backup options?
Dear Perlers, A little while ago I asked about solutions to the graceless failure I was experiencing with psync (would look like it copied data, but would happily create zero-byte files once out of room, without complaining; and on re-psync, would copy reams of links, making me unsure that everything'd been copied before, since it was copying again ...). Rsync was mentioned as a solution, and using rsync under Tiger or using rsyncX, whis looks plausible. However, when I've tried this I've gotten errors. Also, others complain it's not ready for prime time: http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2005/07/22/backup.html? page=2 (see comments in bottom; these reflect my experience, with broken pipe errors, etc.) One happy note was that rsync has a flag for comparing checksums during rsync runs. This assures that copies really put the right data -- and all the right data -- in each of the files. The downside is that I have no idea what it does to compaare checksums on extended attributes, resource forks, or the like. The psync script could certainly have md5 sums added to the scanning cycle of both source and destination, and have a scan of all copied items to ensure the sums were correct ... but I don't have an instinct for the least- overhead way to do this. Also, doing checksums over a connection to a remote volume would create ridiculous traffic: the machine running psync would need to receive all the data in all the files to do a checksum on each, which is in my view why rsync has a client/server model (to do processing on each end, reducing transmission of data). So my questions are: (1) Does psync really have an issue with symlinks, and recopy symlinks all the time? (or is there a difference between relative and absolute paths in symlinks, and does psync treat them differently and thus fail to recognize a good copy during pre-copy checks, forcing recopies?) (2) Does anyone have a solution for copy verification under psync, or should I experiment rolling my own verify flag in the psync script? (3) Does anyone have experience getting backups to work well under rsync, with or without perl involvement? Thanks in advance :-) Best regards, Chris

This presumably also includes the extended-access lists which psync won't handle. I thought the issue wasn't a patched rsync, but filesystem changes that made regular unix tools automatically get the resource fork when they tried to move, rename, etc. I don't fully understand what it's doing, which makes me nervous -- also, I don't know how non- Tiger remote systems will treat data sent by rsync on Tiger, so I'm not sure how this will work for me as a backup. I will happily look forward to your tales of success (rather than woe) and proceed accordingly once you describe the transition into former psync user status. On the other hand, I have a warm spot in my heart for Perl, and I'll happily use psync 'till the cows come home if I can work out how not to get bitten by this silent failure to back up issue -- say, by following backup with a check for zero-length files on the destination volume, since that's the symptom. The incremental (within files) nature of rsync backups *does* have appeal, though, especially as I consider remote backup; my current setup involves only backup to an external drive. Now to spend a few hours reverse engineering carbon-copy-cloner so that I can ensure that I'm copying only the stuff that doesn't get cleared on reboot anyway... rsyncing your swap file across the internet could prove tiresome :-) Best regards, Chris

This would be all well and good, except that every text editor I point

Ideas?
What line numbers do your text editors say the above statements are
actually on?
Sprinkle a few
print __LINE__;
statements around and see what Perl thinks the line numbers are.
I replaced the entirety of sub displayResults with:
sub displayResults { print __line__ . sub displayResults; }
(both to get Perl's idea of the line numbers, and to implement another
suggestion I replace contents of problem subroutines with simple code
to track down bugs)
and my errors went from:
chris% ./nudice-01c

./nudice-01c line 193.

syntax error at ./nudice-01c line 457, near }
Execution of ./nudice-01c aborted due to compilation errors.
to the more modest:
chris% ./nudice-01c

syntax error at ./nudice-01c line 189, near sub rollRequest
syntax error at ./nudice-01c line 209, near while @rawRollArray
syntax error at ./nudice-01c line 341, near }
Execution of ./nudice-01c aborted due to compilation errors.
So, now that I know all the variable problems are in displayResults
despite the line numbers being off, I can start looking outside
displayResults for the other errors. I note in passing that I can't
find a bunch of my labelThrow masking one another, as in
displayResults I make the label for each throw using:
my $labelThrow; # Identifies throw type for table readers
# Calculates Label for Throw
$labelThrow .= $requests[$requestNumber]{numDicePerThrow} if
$requests[$requestNumber]{numDicePerThrow} 1; # Puts numDice in
throw's label if 1
$labelThrow .= d . $requests[$requestNumber]{numSidesPerDie}; #
Puts Die size
$labelThrow .= $requests[$requestNumber]{numAddedToThrow} if
$requests[$requestNumber]{numAddedToThrow};#Puts numAddedToThrow in
throw's labal if nonzero
Does anyone spot what I'm doing wrong in trying to build a this label's
contents in this way?
Note that I have no idea at all what I'm doing with these data
structures, what's why it is practice :-). @requests is not created
expressly, but is created as data is stuffed into
$requests[$requestNumber]{numDicePerThrow} and the like. It looks
like I need a primer on using these sort of storage tools. Advice?
