A brief description
I am having a problem when trying to play with CMake project for Linux. The project (super simple) is attached. -
Expected results
Everything is done without errors. -
Actual results (with build output window contents if applicable)
1> Copying files to remote machine...
1> rsync -t --delete --delete-excluded -v -r --exclude=.vs --exclude=.git /D/Projects/linuxproj/libyui/proj1/ rsync://jacob@localhost:51067/temp
1> rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]

VC++ version, Linux system name and version, GCC/GDB/gdbserver version, CPU arch, etc. If you are using a specific version of Linux on an embedded board, we might need to know about it to get a repro on similar hardware

Linux version: opensuse leap 15.0, cmake 3.10.2, rsync 3.1.3
- Steps required to reproduce the error
I don't know. I did the following: just open cmake project. When I click the Generate link at the top of the screen (in the message "C++ IntelliSense information may be out of date, generate the CMake cache to refresh. Generate - Settings"), the behaviour reproduces. - Required packages and commands to install

15.9 was supposed to resolve this problem, but it did not for me:
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at /C/Users/t-elmor/rsync-3.0.8-1-msys-1.0.17-src.tar/rsync-3.0.8-1-msys-1.0.17-src/rsync-3.0.8/io.c(601) [sender=3.0.8]

In version 15.9.2 the problem is still present :(
@aWeinzierl @Pitt14 it is possible that you have on the remote target a process (rsync) listening on the same port that is being tried by the rsync spawn by VS. Could you please ssh onto the remote machine and kill the process (e.g. 'pkill rsync' using the same user account you set up in VS) and retry again?
Please open this bug on the Developer Community forum, thanks!
I tried to do that with my test project:
- opened project, got the error message;
- killed rsync via ssh;
- clicked Generate at the top of the window.
result: the same error message.
Please open this bug on the Developer Community forum, thanks!

@lukka @elizabethmorrow can you take a look?
Closing as the issue is now present at Developer Community forums.
I have the same problem, none of the suggested workarounds (e.g. pkill rsync
) really works. I'm on the latest VS 2019 Preview. Really sad that every time I try this, for the last year or two, there's still something that doesn't work out-of-the-box yet. And the displayed errors make it nigh impossible to try and find out what's going on without spending hours on it.
I wonder why can't they just revert that feature to the state when it worked? Don't they use version control systems?

I sort of agree: It seems that the quality of Microsoft products deteriorates with every release (I use Windows and Visual Studio).
@IakovK To be fair this feature is evolving a lot, and in principle improving quite a lot. The problem I'd say is that there's so many things that can go wrong along the way. Maybe I've just been unfortunate. I'd love to use VS & direct CMake integration & WSL and it's awesome what MS is doing in that direction. I just wish their testing was a bit better, and the error messages were better, so you could do more about it (and more easily) when something goes wrong.
@patrikhuber
I don't know in which direction it is evolving. What is improving if the feature doesn't work? In first version it was poor (good for first version), but it worked. Good promise. In next update it just stopped working. Evolved. Now, given the Microsoft's attitude, I am afraid to install any updates: Who knows, maybe they are evolving it in such a direction that breaks what always worked? Code editor, for example.
Every next update is worse than previous one.
So, I won't update Visual Studio, I won't update Windows anymore. Every update is a risk to make the computer unusable.

I have the same problem. VS 2019 Preview 4.
For the reason stated above I am not going even to try VS 2019. Enough.
I also have the same problem, VS 2019 Preview 1
I also have the same problem with VS 2019 16.1.0 Preview 3.0. There is no remote rsync
process running. I did turn on the "Cross Platform Logging" feature, and here's some useful log output:

This continues until it times out. I checked for myself, and I see that the /var/tmp/40488/
directory doesn't exist. If I run the commands from the log myself, Visual Studio will connect, but the next time around, the /var/tmp/40488/
directory gets deleted.
