This rsync lacks old-style --compress due to its external zlib. Try -zz.

Hi all,

Show : See My freeNAS system

Version: TrueNAS-12.0-U6.1
CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) E-2224 CPU @ 3.40GHz
Memory: 15.9GiB with ZFS Cache: 9.9 GiB
Total Disks : 4 (data) RAIDZ1, Model WDC, type HDD
2 (caches), Model:256G TOSHIBA, type SSD
Ethernet: Media Subtype: 1000baseT with no vlan

I got a rsync problem since I upgraded my FreeNAS-11.3-U5 to TrueNAS-12.0-U6.1.

I use software for backup named Backup Assist and the saves used rsync for backup data.
Since I upgrade to TrueNAS 12, the rsync transfer don't want to works and the error appear:

Code:

rsync: This rsync lacks old-style --compress due to its external zlib.  Try -zz.
rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(1592) [server=3.1.3]
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(601) [sender=3.0.7]

This is the command used by Backup Assist for the backup on my pool:

Code:

C:\ProgramData\BackupAssist v11\temp\Rsync\rsync.exe
-a
-z
--no-owner
--no-group
-H
--chmod=u+w,a+rX
--out-format="%o:%l:%b:%f:%i"
-ii
--modify-window=2
--filter=". /cygdrive/C/Users/Administrateur.WIN-VE07FNB77GJ/AppData/Local/Temp/47/l4xzutrb.ujf"
--8-bit-output
--progress
--rsh="'/cygdrive/C/ProgramData/BackupAssist v11/temp/Rsync/ssh.exe'
-o PasswordAuthentication=no
-o KbdInteractiveAuthentication=no
-o StrictHostKeyChecking=yes
-o UserKnownHostsFile='\"/cygdrive/C/ProgramData/BackupAssist v11/.ssh/known_hosts\"'
-i '/cygdrive/C/ProgramData/BackupAssist v11/.ssh/ba_id'
-o ServerAliveInterval=60
-p 22" "/cygdrive/C/Users/Administrateur.WIN-VE07FNB77GJ/AppData/Local/Temp/47/0igjctsi.om1/" "rovatti_sav@backup.antsys.fr:~/save_quotidienne"

and after that, the error appears.

This is not possible to change the command launched by Backup Assist, so I can't change the -a compression by -zz or simply remove the -a.

There is a possibility to solve this rsync problem?
There is a possibility to downgrade the rsync version without breaking the TrueNAS?

If I forgot some information, I apologize in advance.

You can install whatever version you want in a jail without harming the host... then either link that version or just specify the path to it for your needed software.

What about a wrapper script? As long as it is placed in the path before the binary ...

Hello guys,

First, thanks for your help and sorry for being late.

You can install whatever version you want in a jail without harming the host... then either link that version or just specify the path to it for your needed software.

I don't think it's possible to specify to my external software Backup Assist to use a specific rsync version in a jail.
I tell him to rsync on an IP address and he connects directly to the host.
Or maybe if it's possible, I don't know how to do it ...

What about a wrapper script? As long as it is placed in the path before the binary ...

What do you mean by wrapper script ?

Regards,
Jean-Yves.

What do you mean by wrapper script ?

A script with the name rsync that by its position in the PATH gets executed instead of the actual command. In this script you could "translate" the options so that they are compatible with your rsync version.

I wanted to create a jail in the old release "11.3-RELEASE" for the project to put the args: "--rsync-path" on the rsync command for linking to the rsync version of this jail, but it gave me an error when I want to create the jail :

Do you know guys why?
