Hi, Been using rsync for many years but I'm stuck with this problem.
I'ts a simplistic backup using rsync from a Windows 2k3 machine to a Linux
box out on the 'net, using pre-shared ssh keys. In this case I'm saving,
files belonging to various users, using the administrator account on the
windows machine and the destination is a normal user account and its home
file area. I'm using the rsync --chown option to stop rsync trying to change
the ownership/mode on the destination filesystem. I'm not bothered about
saving the file perms/ownership.
If I do a small transfer of a couple of dozen files as a test, all goes
well.
The path of the source on the windows system has spaces in the name, I've
tried every type of escaping that I can think of to get the shells to work
properly. If I run rsync running on a larger batch of files it seems to
stall. Using the -vvv option I can see rsync, on the windows.cygwin end,
collecting a list of files prefixed by
[sender] make_file (filenames)
that I guess it is going to transfer and then this is followed by
recv_file_name (another filename)
Which I presume is the first file that it is transferring. That file is a
few hundred k so it won't take long, But rsync stalls at that point. Cntrl C
does nothing and I end up having to kill the rsync process.
I've tried
rsync -az --progress --delete --chmod=ugo=rwX -e "ssh -i
/home/administrator/rsync-key" /cygdrive/c/Users Shared Folders
u...@remotehost/home/user/backup/
rsync -az --progress --delete --chmod=ugo=rwX -e "ssh -i
/home/administrator/rsync-key" /cygdrive/c/Users\ Shared\ Folders
u...@remotehost:/home/user/backup/
rsync -az --progress --delete --chmod=ugo=rwX -e "ssh -i
/home/administrator/rsync-key" '"/cygdrive/c/Users\ Shared\ Folders"'
'"u...@remotehost:/home/user/backup/"'
rsync -avvvz --progress --delete --chmod=ugo=rwX -e 'ssh -i
/home/administrator/rsync-key' /cygdrive/c/Users\\\ Shared\\\ Folders
u...@remotehost:/home/user/backup/
The cygwin rsync is v3.0.6 and the Linux (Centos) target machine has rsync
2.6.8
Any ideas most welcome.
Thanks
Ken

i think /cygdrive/c/Users\ Shared\ Folders or "/cygdrive/c/Users
Shared Folders" is just enough. you have too many escapes, one is
enough. it's not a rsync problem, it's a problem about how escape
works.
and you can use filename completion, you can just enter
/cygdrive/c/Users or “/cygdrive/c/Users, then press tab button, then
it will give you /cygdrive/c/Users\ Shared\ Folders or
"/cygdrive/c/Users Shared Folders"
Thanks for your help. I think you are right about the escaping. I've
been experimenting a bit further and came to a similar conclusion.
Here's a log of what happens
$ rsync -avvz --progress --delete --chmod=ugo=rwX -e 'ssh -i
/home/administrator/rsync-key' "/cygdrive/c/Users Shared Folders"
u...@remotehost:/home/user/backup/
