Title: backup to desktop incomplete
Post by: bowhuntr on September 23, 2005, 12:04:42 PM

I can't seem to get a complete backup to desktop anymore. I have never had a problem with it but now it gets to about 150MB and stops and when I verify it, it says its not complete. I am running  SME Server 6.0.1-01, does anyone have any ideas what the problem could be?

I have had exactely the same problem on a sme 6.0.1 The reason apeared to be that I had made some "unathorized" or homemade modifications that involved the users home directories. The modification worked until I wanted to do a backup. It did then just freeze in the end of the backup. I think the solution were to delete all user acounts and then to build them up from the bottom again.

I think modifications of different kinds might be a possible reason for hanging backups.
