Mirroring Trisquel rsync issue

Hi, I've been trying to mirror Trisquel Packages using the rsync command from the wiki.
Everytime, it will stop on a specific file and show an error. (Error message shown in attached file)
If I exclude this file and run rsync again, it will continue but then later stop on another file with same error.
This has happened on my 2 home machines as well as a VPS, so I'm not too sure what I can do about it.

End goal is to be able to host a repo for Trisquel to help out the project.

Errored filenames:
pool/main/b/boost1.62/boost1.62_1.62.0+dfsg.orig.tar.bz2
pool/main/0/0ad-data/0ad-data_0.0.25b-1~oibaf~f+10.0trisquel1.tar.gz

Can anyone help me get passed or at least understand the error?

Thanks :)

Are you executing the following command, given on http://archive.trisquel.info ?
rsync -rlpthi --delete-after --stats rsync.trisquel.org::trisquel.packages trisquel.packages

Thanks for the reply :)
Yes I am. Only the command I had found has .info instead of .org but other than that, it's the same.

I'd got my info from this page: https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/mirroring-trisquel

That wiki page has not been updated for 4.5 years. I guess trisquel.org should be used now. That said, I doubt it will make a difference. You can try though. I asked you the command you executed because anybody who can help you would certainly ask. Unfortunately, I am not one of those: I have never mirrored anything.

Good point. I should have included that in my original post.
After reading your post I did try the .org instead of .info and the result was the same.

I would suggest some kind of hardware/network issue, or maybe just pulled on a high IO timing.

I'm testing,
rsync -rlpthi --delete-after --stats rsync.trisquel.org::trisquel.packages .

and I've already passed:

>f+++++++++ pool/main/d/dogtag-pki/dogtag-pki-console-theme_10.6.0-1ubuntu2_all.deb

And it keeps going while this is posted.
AFAIK, both rsync.trisquel.org and rsync.trisquel.info point to the same machine, so that should not matter much.

Since this is a test I don't think I want to download the whole archive.

Are you able to test not using the same connection?
Regards.

Wow that's interesting. Thanks for testing :)
I did try on a VPS justs to prove to myself it wasn't my PC or my internet connection. But it had the same issue.

I will try on a laptop at work an see what the result is and post back.

update:
It ran pretty well at work on a work laptop (not a full mirror, but enough to show it was working). So I tried again at home, got same issue as earlier but tried again using a VPN.
While using a VPN, it ran for a week and downloaded 109GB of data. Hooray!
But unfortunately it stopped again. (screenshot attached).

This may be due to a VPN issue. Have restarted VPN and will continue. Safe to say the issue is my bad luck and dumb things just happening.
