unable to backup/sync data

Troubleshooting
1

Hey all,

I am having troubles backing up my data and running the sync program, i have a raspberry pi 3b+ and runing the latest diet pi 6.28

when i try to run the backup program it stops all the services then just stop there, i have waited about 15 mins and nothing happens. Then i tried Rsync to have a backup that way and it also fail but at least told me why:

rsync error: received SIGINT, SIGTERM, or SIGHUP (code 20) at rsync.c(644) [sender=3.1.3]
rsync error: received SIGINT, SIGTERM, or SIGHUP (code 20) at io.c(513) [generator=3.1.3]
[FAILED] DietPi-Sync An issue has occurred

Hopefully someone has a idea.

Is there somewhere to look or something to try?

Hi,
unfortunately I’m not able to replicate your issue as dietpi-backup is running fine for me. But you could try to reinstall rsync as follow

apt-get reinstall rsync
