I should have mentioned I'm running on 0.9.7 of librsync.
Another thing I should clarify. The second run of these backups takes
forever. I could see the first run taking a long time since it's
copying huge amounts of data, but I thought since it's only going to be
sending differences (or maybe that's what's wrong here) it should be
much faster. In fact, it took less time to do the initial backup than
it did for the second one. I started another backup yesterday morning
to see how long it takes, and it's not done now 26 hours later. Here is
what I'm getting:
python: ERROR: (rs_job_iter) internal error: job made no progress
[orig_in=129238, orig_out=65536, final_in=129238, final_out=65536]
UpdateError TWDOCS2001.adm librsync error 107 while in patch cycle

to the list.)

Upgrade librsync to 0.9.7
There is a documented problem with large files over 2Gigs in size with
versions earlier than this.

Hi, I'm new to the list and I tried searching the archive for this
problem, but the search utility didn't seem to work. I tried
scanning through the archive a bit, too, but didn't see anything.
Sorry if it is a well covered topic. I've been trying to get
rdiff-backup-0.13.4 working for some extremely large files (25 to
100Gig) backing up from Windows 2000 with latest cygwin to a Linux
machine, running the command from the Linux machine. The first
backup goes fine, but when running a second time on any files that
have changed, I keep getting a librsync error 107. I read the
librsync.h file and it has a comment for error 107 as
RS_INTERNAL_ERROR = 107, /**< Probably a library bug. */. I
compiled both librsync and rdiff-backup myself on cygwin. I also
noticed that there is no longer a --windows-mode option in 0.13.4, or
at least it didn't work for me. Is there some other option that
replicates this behaviour? Another thing is that these backups take
an extremely long time, 20+ hours. Does that seem right?
