I am running rdiff-backup with the --exclude-sockets option, but I am
still getting this kind of error for every socket:
ListError private/var/launchd/0/sock [Errno 1] Operation not
permitted: '/private/var/launchd/0/sock'
I am running rdiff-backup with sudo, and below is the output for ls:
$ ls -l /private/var/launchd/0
srwx------ 1 root wheel 0 Feb 19 10:18 sock
Am I doing something wrong, or is the program not able to correctly
detect sockets in this environment (HFS+ Journaled under Mac OS X
10.4.8)?
I installed rdiff-backup using MacPorts:
sudo port install rdiff-backup-devel (1.1.5)
sudo port install py-xattr (0.2)
Also, what is even more puzzling, is that most of these error
messages contain a path that does not make any sense:
ListError private/var/run/cron.pid/cupsd [Errno 1] Operation not
permitted: '/private/var/run/cupsd'
While the latter path is correct, the first one is not. As you can
see from the ls output snippet below, there is no directory called
cron.pid, but that is in fact the name of the file just before the
socket cupsd:
$ ls -l /private/var/run/
-rw-r--r-- 1 root daemon 3 Feb 19 10:18 configd.pid
-rw-r--r-- 1 root daemon 5 Feb 22 18:52 cron.pid
srwxrwxrwx 1 root daemon 0 Feb 19 13:19 cupsd
drwxrwxr-x 2 www www 68 Feb 19 10:18 davlocks
As there are not really too many sockets, I have just excluded them
manually for now, but it would be nice to get --exclude-sockets working.
All the best,
Ilari
