Strange problem

[Manuel Rodriguez Morales]

Hello.

I have a strange problem with rsync
With a cron, I run a script that launches about 30 processes at once, two of which fail, always the same.
It worked fine until recently.

The commands executed are of the type:
rsync -Aavq  --password-file=passfile --del --log-file=logfile rsync://user@machine1/path /mnt/backups/machine1/
rsync -Aavq  --password-file=passfile --del --log-file=logfile rsync://user@machine2/path /mnt/backups/machine2/

/mnt/backups is a path mounted with nfs

The error received is:

[3565] Receiving file list
[3565] rsync: chown "/mnt/backups/machine1/usr/local/etc/inspircd" failed: Invalid argument (22)
[3591] rsync error: Received SIGUSR1 (code 19) at main.c (1402) [receiver = 3.1.0dev]
[3565] rsync error: errors with program diagnostics (code 13) at log.c (247) [generator = 3.1.0dev]

In machine1

[36714] connect from backups.domain (X.X.X.X)
[36714] rsync on path / from user at backups.domain (XXXX)
[36714] building file list
[36714] rsync: connection Unexpectedly closed (56 bytes Received so far) [sender]
[36714] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c (601) [sender = 3.0.7]

If I run the script manually it works correctly.

I have also tried to put a strace to see if it yields more information, but with strace does not fail.

Someone could help me?

Regards.
