when i try to use rsync with --progress or -P option (--progress --partial) i get an error saying:



Unknown --info item: "flist"
rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at options.c(453) [client=3.1.2]


I'm using ubuntu 18.04, uninstalled and reinstalled rsync but problem still persists. Example command:



rsync -avzP /home/test/testdir /home/test/testdir2/


or



rsync -avz --partial --progress /home/test/testdir /home/test/testdir2/

  • Both your examples work for me, rsync version 3.1.0.

  • I found this, indicating it could be a permission issue. How did you create the directories (as user or root)? What user tries to rsync the files?

  • You you have a .popt file in your home directory? Show its contents if so. Have you determined if it is the --partial or the --progress option, or only the combination? Note also that -z option is useless on a local transfer.

  • @eblock Directories are mine and permissions are correct. Trying it with sudo gives the same error.

  • @wurtel no .popt file in my home dir. --partial works, --progress doesn't. -P automatically doesn't work too.
