Ok... More testing.. Opened up the dir perms to 775 -- just to see if this was/is an issue. I can successfully do mkdir -p /home/webdev/composer/vendor/laravel with the /home/webdev dir being empty. This creates the dir path However, running the rsync cmd, still generates the error: rsync -aq --rsync-path='mkdir -p /home/webdev/composer/vendor/laravel && rsync' /home/test/.config/composer/vendor/laravel/ /home/webdev/composer/vendor/laravel rsync: mkdir "/home/webdev/composer/vendor/laravel" failed: No such file or directory (2) rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at main.c(664) [Receiver=3.1.3] I can't seem to determine why the "mkdir" within the rsync isn't working but the mkdir when run alone does. hmm... thanks On Tue, Jun 23, 2020 at 11:17 AM Jamie Fargen <jamie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Bruce- > > Try rsync -av /home/test/.config/composer/ /home/webdev/composer/ > > Regards, > -Jamie > > On Tue, Jun 23, 2020 at 11:09 AM bruce <badouglas@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> >> Hey. >> >> I've got a test scenario.
