A failed backup doesn't imply data loss... that would also imply I'm
losing data whenever I skip making a backup :)

I'm guessing this is related to #307923. Please add a line
log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log
to the top of /etc/rsyncd.conf, and try it again. At least, I'm assuming
you're using an rsync daemon; you give very little information on how
rsync is being used.

If that fixes it, please let me know ASAP so I can upload a fix for your
problem.


Thanks,
