When you run rsync with the -vv option, it outputs the ssh command it is running to connect to the other machine. Run that command manually and see if it generates the error. If it does, change the remote command to narrow down what is causing the problem (and remember to run the command ssh host which rsync as I mentioned). ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Re: please help -- Variable syntax error
Yes. I typed exactly without any variables in the command line. No variable invloved. It works perfectly in one other machine where the shell is ksh.(That is the only difference between the machines i know of) rsync -vv testfile mydestmachine:/export/opt/geneva/temp/testfile Here testfile is a simple text file with 2 lines. When i did this with scp, it worked.

I tried to scp and ssh from the remote machine to the local machine. I works well. But doing rsync gives the same error. Variable Syntax So of the two machines from which ever m/c i do rsync it says the same error. I tried -vv to debug. It uses ssh. Can you be more specific on how to running the remote shell command directly to see if it gives the error. ssh machine works well. rsync and ssh is installed in both machines. They are the same version.

please help -- Variable syntax error
Hello I am using rsync to sync w machines. I had no problem untill. Now i am trying the same script to sync 2 differnt machines. The code is the same. I just changed the machine names. When i execute the script i get Variable syntax rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(150) I am able to scp or ssh to the from the machines. I have proper keys. Where does the Variable syntax come from., I have 5 folders in include file. So this error is repeated 5 times. I tried rsync -vv testfile mydestmachine:/export/opt/geneva/temp/testfile even for this command i get the same error. How do i overcome this error. I tried everything. Is it something to do with c-shell. Because my previous scripts where working in ksh. I really dont understand. Please help .
