Thanks for reporting this bug. rsync likely is simply relaying a ENOSPC it got from the kernel. This can happen for a few reasons. If you have a 200Gb fat32 filesystem then you are likely hitting a maximum number of file entries. Are you able to manually create new files, i.e.
sudo touch uploads/helloworld.txt If so, then please run the rsync command under strace strace -f -ostrace.out rsync -avz r...@xxxxx.net:/var/www/vhosts/xxxxx.net/httpdocs/uploads . and attach the resulting strace.out file here. ** Changed in: rsync (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1242940 Title: Bogus "no space left on device" error message To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsync/+bug/1242940/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
