Full backup shows type as Incremental in log

Post by rjantigua »

I have set up my backup schedule as suggested with weekly Differentials, daily Incrementals, cleanups, and a monthly full backup. However, when I check the log file (successful status) for the full backup, it shows the backup type as "Incremental". When I check the scheduled job, it definitely is setup with type "Full".

Screen capture of schedule and zipped full and incremental logs are attached...actually getting an error now about "could not upload attachment to ./files/????? I'll try later

Getting the following error:

Could not upload attachment to ./files/128_f3599fd04feb6c0dcc483ed3aee758bd.

Is there a size limit

Sir or Ma'am;

I indicated twice already that I'm getting an error trying to attach a file to this thread. I've tried multiple machines with Win7 and WinXP, and Chrome, IE10, IE8 and FF. With IE8 on WinXP I get "This extension is not allowed" no matter what extension I put on a text file.

Please let me know what the problem is, or provide another method for you to get the files.

Hi,

In the backup log, the default backup type selected in Backup Properties->Type is listed, no matter if another backup type was forced to be executed.

Thanks, but you can see why that is very confusing. I'll add it to the wish list forum
