    Those errors are probably occurring from copying files from a
    partition that supports permissions to a drive/partition with
    something like a fat32 filesystem that does not support permissions.<br>
    <br>
    By changing the -a to a -r rsync simply copies the files instead of

          (copied below for your convenience.) Their solution was to
          change the archive tag (-a) to a recursive (-r) tag. What
          about the other settings that -a preserves? <i> </i></div>
        <div>However, it didn't work for me and I just noticed that what
          rsync seems to be doing is taking all of the videos I have in
          the folder "Darktable" and refusing to copy them and in the
          error message appending the file name with a 6 character
          string (.y4Qitq in the example shown).</div>
        <div>Perhaps it is expecting a file type (.mp4 or something) and
          when it doesn't find it creates it's own.</div>
