Re: [PATCH] Fix build error with unison 2.40.61

I'm having the same issue on both Mac OS X 10.6.5 and CentOS Linux, so let me add some info about it.

Specifically, the error trace is:

% cd ~/local/x86_64/src/unison-2.40.61
% make UISTYLE=text
./mkProjectInfo > Makefile.ProjectInfo
/bin/sh: ./mkProjectInfo: No such file or directory
make: *** Deleting file `Makefile.ProjectInfo'
UISTYLE = text
Building for Unix
NATIVE = true
THREADS = false
STATIC = false
OSTYPE = linux-gnu
OSARCH =
make tags
make[1]: Entering directory
`/projects/lowelab/users/auzilov/local/x86_64/src/unison-2.40.61'
./mkProjectInfo > Makefile.ProjectInfo
/bin/sh: ./mkProjectInfo: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** Deleting file `Makefile.ProjectInfo'
if [ -f `which etags` ]; then \
           etags *.mli */*.mli *.ml */*.ml */*.m *.c */*.c *.txt \
         ; fi
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/projects/lowelab/users/auzilov/local/x86_64/src/unison-2.40.61'

So it looks like "mkProjectInfo" is missing, and we need it to make "Makefile.ProjectInfo".  The
workaround is to make it manually:

Note the last message: the rule has been executed, but mkProjectInfo
hasn't been created yet.
So the rule fails.

FWIW, I came up with the same patch while updating my Unison ebuild for
Gentoo Linux, and it fixes the issue.

Hi Marco....

I think you and I are saying the same thing, but in different ways.  

It turns out this bug has also been described by Ron Isaacson in
Message #9550, so it is quite widespread.... hope the gods are
listening and will add the patch to the next release!

Cheers,
Andrew U.

keep getting "Failed: Error in renaming" on unison 2.40.61

Hi all....
(sorry if this is a dup, sent from wrong email last time)

I just got started on unison a few days ago and it seems like a great
tool for what I need!  However, I keep running into weird issues
syncing my collection of ~190,000 files between local and remote --- a
measly 38 files refuse to sync.  I am having difficulty reproducing
the problem, so I was wondering if someone has any advice for what I
could look at to fix or reproduce it.

I am syncing between:

local: Mac OS X 10.6.5 (MacBook Pro laptop)
remote: CentOS Linux 2.6, synced dir is on NFS version 3 filesystem

My unison setup: unison 2.40.61 manually compiled on both machines, I
have UNISONLOCALHOSTNAME set on local host, I do not have any profiles
set up (all command-line), and I am invoking like this:

% cd ~/Research/FragSeq/
% unison . ssh://USERNAME <at> HOSTNAME//path/to/my/home/dir/FragSeq/ -times

I begin with the files on local and remote being identical, so that on
the first pass unison just builds the data structures storing the
state --- no content should be different.  Unfortunately, for some
files, unison thinks they are different (although their md5 hashes are
the same).  A subset of these are the 38 problem files.

Here is the error trace for a sample file:

Re: keep getting "Failed: Error in renaming" on unison 2.40.61

Upon some searching, it looks like Message #9576 is having a very similar issue (also unresolved):

Win32 drive not found problem

GUI issue [1 Attachment]

<*>[Attachment(s) from Adrian Klaver included below]

Kubuntu 10.04
Unison version 2.40.61
Ocaml version 3.11.2
lablgtk2-ocaml 2.14

I built the latest stable version of Unison from source. Other than the Makefile 
problem discussed in other thread there where no issues with the build. When I 
work with the GUI interface there is no Quit button on the toolbar. Typing q 
works to exit though. See attached screenshot.

Re: Win32 drive not found problem

Is this external USB-connected HDD? If so, I often met situation when
Windows promptly (2-5 sec) disconnect and reconnect such HDD on access
after long idle (5 minutes). I believe this is due to powersave/sleep
mode of HDD itself.

Try "chkdsk s:" (in command prompt) also. If any error found, "chkdsk
s: /f /x" (both without quotes).
