single quote problem with rsync

mr_boysito · #1 (**permalink**) 12-04-2008

Hi everybody,

I'm a newbie and hope that someone help me in this problem.

I have a filename in LINUX with single quote like this:

abs@hosttest:~/ABS/BETY/cygdrive/C/DECLARANOT 1.1.4/02 - ROCK/052 - GUNSROSES> dir You*
-rw-r--r-- 1 abs users 2365881 2008-08-25 09:16 You're Crazy.mp3

The file is You're Crazy.mp3.

I want to recover this file from windows, i use the next command:

C:\>rsync -avrz --progress abs@test.no-ip.org://home/abs/ABS/BETY/cygdrive/C/"'DECLARANOT 1.1.4/02 - ROCK/052 - GUNS
ROSES/You're Crazy.mp3'" /ABS_RECOVERY\
Password:
bash: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''
bash: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [receiver]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(644) [receiver=3.0.2]

when the filename has no single quote, i have not problems.

I hope someone can help me with this problem.

Thanks in advance, and congratulations for this great forum.
