Why is Rsync failing to sync a specific folder? - google-cloud-platform

Question

We are using rsync when syncing to our dev server on GCP. Recently ive noticed that it does not sync some of our files in a specific folder. The others work well like before.
This is how our trigger looks like:
First one is working
rsync -aqe ssh \
--no-g \
--no-p \
--delete \
--force \
--dirs \
--perms \
--no-owner \
--no-group \
--exclude-from="/opt/projects/puppet/devtools/sync_script/support_files/sync_web.exclude" \
--log-file="/tmp/rsync.log" \
/opt/projects/web/src/ \
"${DEV_IP}":/var/www/src/
Not working example:
rsync -aqe ssh \
--no-g \
--no-p \
--delete \
--force \
--dirs \
--perms \
--no-owner \
--no-group \
--exclude-from="/opt/projects/puppet/devtools/sync_script/support_files/sync_web.exclude" \
--log-file="/tmp/rsync.log" \
/opt/projects/web/ \
"${DEV_IP}":/var/www/
So when we specifinc that folder it works. But if use one level up from it thoose files will not be synced.

In my opinion, it is best to turn off the -q option, which would indicate if there is an error. In case there is no error you can always try to debug with
-v, --verbose increase verbosity
--info=FLAGS fine-grained informational verbosity
--debug=FLAGS fine-grained debug verbosity
you can also check the rsync.log log file.
