Thanks for reporting this bug.

rsync likely is simply relaying a ENOSPC it got from the kernel.  This
can happen for a few reasons.  If you have a 200Gb fat32 filesystem then
you are likely hitting a maximum number of file entries.  Are you able
to manually create new files, i.e.

sudo touch uploads/helloworld.txt

If so, then please run the rsync command under strace

   strace -f -ostrace.out rsync -avz
root at xxxxx.net:/var/www/vhosts/xxxxx.net/httpdocs/uploads .

and attach the resulting strace.out file here.

** Changed in: rsync (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
