#549: rsync crash when remote filter rule changes -----------------------+---------------------------------------------------- Reporter: anonymous | Type: defect Status: new | Priority: major Milestone: | Component: Other Version: | Keywords: -----------------------+---------------------------------------------------- {{{ Hi,
I have setup a nightly backup pull via rsync like this:
$ rsync --version rsync version 3.0.7 protocol version 30 $ cd /backup/target $ rsync -axvSAHX --delete --numeric-ids --relative --delete-excluded --bwlimit=10000 --filter='. /backup/conf/filter_glaukos_home' root@glaukos:/exports/./data/ ./
Today noon I wondered why it's is still not ready. After finding out that it was caused by a very large tmp dir of a user I told him to fix his local .rsync-filter.
While rsync was still pulling from the guilty "tmp-2011-09-05/" he changed his local filter from ... + /download*.xz - /tmp + /tmp*.xz ... to ... + /download*.xz - /tmp* + /tmp*.xz ...
and moreover he deleted the whole directory "tmp-2011-09-05".
And rsync exited this way:

This is IMO a very critical issue, since users may crash my backup every day.
