Re: Backup aborted - SQL error
After a lot of off-list help from the backup team, I now have a working backup again. For the sake of anyone else who meets a similar problem, these are the possible issues we came across: I have backups of backups of backups, going back years, and even backups that are imports from backup CDs, so i...

Done. Apologies for the delay - I never got the notification that you had answered.

Backup aborted - SQL error
One of my backup jobs has started failing. A similar job also relating to a mapped drive continues to work perfectly. I can't see any obvious reason for the abortion - nothing has changed in the job definition. Here is the relevant part of the log: Backup aborted. Reason: SQL error " INSERT INTO Tem...

Practical usage advice?
I have a backup job that handles quite a large amount of data, and it runs daily. It is currently set to Smart, with the limits set to 85% of the destination capacity. 1) What does that 85% represent? A full backup + differentials until that limit is reached? and then what? 2) Nightly differentials ...

Re: Backup without compression?
Hah! The reason I'd rejected that option is that I was afraid that it would remove files that are not on this laptop. Now I see that "remove" is optional, I can use it with confidence. Thanks.

Backup without compression?
One of my backup jobs is intended to keep my laptop work copied onto the NAS, i.e. keeping certain folders in sync. My "Projects" job is creating a zipped file in the correct destination. I can't seen any settings that would allow me to simply copy the missing files to that destination. Is it possib...

Re: Odd behaviour after Windows reinstall
In fact much of what has been said was pure "red herring". As recommended elsewhere I changed my local password to match the pw on the NAS. Since then it has been possible to backup files to the NAS and from the NAS to a local USB drive. Clearly the problem lies in Windows Scheduler not passing my c...

Re: Odd behaviour after Windows reinstall
Earlier this week in my search for solutions I set the target to X:\LydgateDesign\ hoping it would find the subdirectory Projects and write into that. Since then I've been getting success notices, saying that the backup completed having found 0 files and 0 folders to back up. There are definitely fi...

Re: Odd behaviour after Windows reinstall
Yes indeed - though of course that's not what I want to do.

Odd behaviour after Windows reinstall
After a long fight I'd finally got my backups working as I wanted them, then Windows (8.1) update failed and left me with an unbootable system. Once Windows was running again everything had to be reinstalled. System: Windows 8.1, Backup4all 5.2. First requirement: Source: C:\Users\Anne\Documents\Lyd...
