           Summary: rsync cannot delete remote file, yet exit value is 0.
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.0.9
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned at samba.org
        ReportedBy: samba-bugzilla-contributor at famsik.de

Created attachment 9052
  --> https://bugzilla.samba.org/attachment.cgi?id=9052
Shell script that shows the problem.

Done:

Some recursive rsync that should have deleted a remote subdirectory with some
files in it. It cannot do that, as the permissions on the remote machine don't
allow deletion.

Expected:

rsync should give a useful error message and terminate with an exit value that
is not 0.

Seen:

While rsync does give a useful error message, it terminates with exit value 0.

I enclose a script that demonstrates the problem, with rsync version 3.0.9 on
both ends.
