[BackupPC-users] Backup fails over rsync
2010-08-14 23:20:30
Hello,
I am trying to backup a remote device using rsync.
I have Backuppc installed and everything appears to be operating OK. I have
changed where files are stored to a connected external USB hard drive - logs
are being saved to there so the setup must be correct.
I have tested Rsync with the remote device using the format:
rsync -avz -e ssh remoteuser@remotehost:/remote/dir /workstation/dir/
and the files are copied correctly without asking for password, so rsync is
working OK.
However, when I try to backup with BackupPC the backup fails. The error log
shows me:
full backup started for directory /remote/dir
Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root 192.168.72.11 /usr/bin/rsync --server
--sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links --times
--block-size=2048 --recursive --ignore-times . /remote/dir/
Xfer PIDs are now 1893
Read EOF: Connection reset by peer
Tried again: got 0 bytes
Done: 0 files, 0 bytes
Got fatal error during xfer (Unable to read 4 bytes)
Backup aborted (Unable to read 4 bytes)
Not saving this as a partial backup since it has fewer files than the prior one
(got 0 and 0 files versus 0)
I must have something configured incorrectly but cannot find it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
