My cygwin on Vista seems to work but when I try to do rsync to fixup files on
my unix ftp server, it chokes with lots of errors and does a bizarre reset
of the permission bits for the destination folder. Here's what happens:
[this is the same rsync command that works fine on XP]:
===========================
$ rsync -avz --stats --progress -e ssh . mylogin@myftp.com:/mypath/wherever/
mylogin@myftp.com's password: xxxxxx
building file list ...
8 files to consider
./
rsync: failed to modify permissions on "/mypath/wherever/.": Permission
denied (13)
rsync: recv_generator: failed to stat "/mypath/wherever/firstfile.xxx":
Permission denied (13)
rsync: recv_generator: failed to stat "/mypath/wherever/secondfile.xxx":
Permission denied (13)
...etc...
rsync: recv_generator: mkdir "/mypath/wherever/." failed: Permission denied
(13)
*** Skipping everything below this failed directory ***
...etc...stats...then...
rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at
/home/lapo/packaging/tmp/rsync-2.6.6/main.c(791)
=============================
Then after I have done this, I find that the remote directory has had all
its permission bits turned off (chmod 0) and the files in the folder are not
sync'd. As I said, this is a sequence I have used many times on XP and
continues to work there.
Any suggestions?
PS After fixing the documented mkpasswd/Vista problem, cygwin starts without
errors on Vista but then behaves as described above. Here is the output of a
cygcheck -c (I have updated rsync to 2.6.6 as you can see).....
