Settime_bypass problem ?

[Erminio Baranzini]

Hi rdiff-backupper,

I am trying to test rdiff-backup (about 12 GB data),
but after a lot of files transferred without problems,
I get 600 MB of log saying always the same things each
time for a new file (or dir), wich will be
nevertheless copied over :

Exception [Errno 1] Operation not permitted:

I have found a similar problem in the mailing-list
archive (Thread: Problem with rdiff-backup-0.5.1 from
Alberto Accomazzi, Thu, 28 Feb 2002 12:10:14 -0500). 

As I am totally ignorant of Python I cannot search
further.

My command line was:

home/tata/d/___BACKUP/rdiff-backup-0.7.2/rdiff-backup
--change-source-perms --force --exclude-device-files
--exclude /a --exclude /b --exclude /proc --exclude
/compat --exclude /usr/compat / /b/essai-rdiff

The problem is partly repeatable, but not always at
the same point of the tree.

I am working with FreeBSD v. 4.5, Python 2.2,
rdiff-backup-0.7.2.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance.

Erminio
