Don't know whether it means the source of the destination. In either case the directories do exist, as shown by the backup working. The destination is a drobo (mapped to the w: drive) if this makes any difference. I'm using windows scheduler. But again scheduler does run the job. It simply fails.

ChrisG on "username and password" http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/username-and-password#post-3356 Wed, 30 Nov 2011 21:52:19 +0000 ChrisG 3356@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ Thanks! Changing to the built-in scheduler worked a treat last night. This morning I have a successful backup message. One more question if you have time - I am a bit confused about the difference between full back up and mirror back up. Is mirror the best to use from now on, so that it just adds any new files or files that have been changed? Does a full back up take much longer, and therefore not necessary to do on a daily basis? The descriptions given for each type of backup do not make it really clear (to me anyway) when or why to select one or the other. Thanks for your help.

If you don't have a password, you can use the second option "With Built-in scheduler" which does not require a password. ChrisG on "username and password" http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/username-and-password#post-3334 Tue, 29 Nov 2011 00:05:32 +0000 ChrisG 3334@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ My hard drive was corrupted and replaced and FBackup 4.6 was started again but with a different username to the original one entered by the technician. A manual full backup worked the first day, but with 7 warnings. It was scheduled to then backup daily, but for a week now has not worked. When I try to edit the scheduler it won't accept any password and it also won't allow me to leave the password empty. I have tried all passwords that might be relevant, but none are accepted. I have tried using the original username and password but that is not accepted. I have changed to mirror backup but that still does not work. How can I get the backup to happen daily as required? I would appreciate any suggestions.

It seems to be a problem with the backup job itself, because recreating it under a different name means it will almost immediately go past "creating backup list" and start doing a volume shadow copy. I haven't touched the fkc catalogs on the backup destination, just created new jobs with the same settings. Fbackup did start a full copy and created a new fkc though, I assume you use some sort of identifier in it?

Even if FBackup scheduled tasks are stored with Windows Scheduled tasks, they are different. jgodfrey on "schedule with no password" http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/schedule-with-no-password#post-149 Fri, 27 Mar 2009 14:05:46 +0000 jgodfrey 149@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ OK, I just installed build 133, which does now work as expected, though I've still got a few questions. First, here's what I did: - Exited from FB 131 - Removed my Windows User password (that was only added to get FB backups to work as explained above) - Restarted FB 133 - Removed the currently scheduled FB backup job - Created a new FB schedule for my job Now, the new job does run as expected. The thing that I find odd is, monitoring the Windows Scheduler dialog, just as the new FB job fires off, its "status" changes to "Could not start" (in Win Scheduler). The job finishes successfully, but the Windows scheduler status still reads "Could not start" and the "Last Run Time" is shown as "Never". FB seems to have a strange relationship with the Windows Scheduler... Is that expected? Ultimately, build 133 *does* work as expected, so that's great. I just find some of the details strange... Any additional input appreciated.

I know I can *schedule* a backup within FB without a password. The problem is, that scheduled job (in Windows scheduler) doesn't run. I've read many places on the web that WinXP won't allow a scheduled job to run against an account with no password, and that's just what I see with a job scheduled from within FB, since I can't define the account password from the FB interface. > Please make sure you have the latest version of FBackup installed (now is build 133). Hmmm... I have 131, which doesn't find any updates available. Looking at the website, I only see 131 listed also. Where do I get 133?

Hmmm... I don't think that's true. Using Win XP Pro (SP3), my default account doesn't have any password. When I try to schedule a job in FB, it fails to start. My system has another admin-level account complete with password just for this purpose, so I went to the Windows scheduler and changed the FB job to use the other account and password. In that case too, it fails to run properly, though I'm not sure why. Finally, I created a password for my normal User account, and rescheduled the job through FB. Again, it failed to run, as there's no way to define the password through the FB interface. In order to get the scheduled job to run automatically, I finally had to go into the Windows scheduler, edit the job created by FB, and enter the newly assigned Windows password. Now, the job runs as expected, but it's not very convenient, as it doesn't seem to be possible to successfully schedule a job from within the FB interface. At the very least, I have to go into Windows scheduler, open the FB job, and add my User password. Any advice?

The scheduled jobs should run without using a Windows password. The information you posted from Help file is no longer valid and will be corrected in the next release. cspgsl on "schedule with no password" http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/schedule-with-no-password#post-133 Sun, 22 Mar 2009 10:39:51 +0000 cspgsl 133@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <blockquote>"If your user account does not have a password you must select the Allow blank passwords when scheduling option from Tools->Options->Preferences."</blockquote> Problem is, I don't see that option anywhere; either in Fbackup or Windows Scheduled Tasks Works fine when I use a password but I don't want to run a password on my computer Admin on "Failed backkups" http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/failed-backkups#post-132 Fri, 20 Mar 2009 11:11:00 +0000 Admin 132@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ Hi, From another post I understand you used to delete the fkc catalog files. Please note that FBackup does not look in destination to see the backed up file but is looking in the fkc catalog, where the files information is stored. If you delete those files, a new complete mirror backup will be performed. JWvanLohuizen on "Failed backkups" http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/failed-backkups#post-127 Tue, 17 Mar 2009 05:04:36 +0000 JWvanLohuizen 127@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ The problem may be that it isn't actually looking at the destination to see what is there. It should look there when mirroring to overwrite any old copies, add new ones and replace missing files. Right now I have several empty folders due to mistakingly thinking that I wanted a full backup and then changing it to mirrored after learning of my mistake. In this case the program must check to see what has actually happened, delete the zip file and folder as promised truky again with a new backup. Also there needs to be a way to ALWAYS backup as a mirror and making it the default since that is what most people expect when making a full backup. During the Install wizard and on the new screen it should show what is happening and direct a person to changing it so that we don't waste an hour trying to get this flawed program to do anything and still not having much backed up.

No files backed up. I am no idiot and have a dozen files and folders added to be backed up. All I got was an empty folder. I just need a mirrored backup of every file and folder in the properties every time I click back up. How hard is that???

First couple of days the backup worked fine on one of 2 PCs (vista on both). However on the other, no matter how I schedule, it won't run. Now, after this machine backed up automatically just fine twice, it now sits and idles saying it is creating the shadow for hours. Even if I remove the schedules and just run the backup, it hangs creating shadow on both machines. I have uninstalled. Should I try a clean install? Does virus software have any effect? I have it set to run even if I'm not logged on...do I need to wake the computer? Is the program using the Task scheduler or not? Do I need the program to be in my startup folder too? Thanks, seemed like a miracle program for a few days.

Please make sure you have the latest build of FBackup. squall0 on "How can I run FBackUp if it waits for user input?" http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/how-can-i-run-fbackup-if-it-waits-for-user-input#post-43 Fri, 02 Jan 2009 23:18:28 +0000 squall0 43@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ I too would like to know the answer to this, I need to run my backup tasks overnight, but some files need to be skipped and this requires user input, is their no way to change this so that these files are always skipped, or so the program just skips all user input of this type completely? neilhmurphy on "How can I run FBackUp if it waits for user input?" http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/how-can-i-run-fbackup-if-it-waits-for-user-input#post-42 Sat, 27 Dec 2008 03:26:34 +0000 neilhmurphy 42@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ I would like to schedule a backup or start one and then go get my morning coffee. When I return my system would be backed up and I would be ready to start the day. However, FBackUp waits for user input indefinitely. That means that I can't run it unattended and expect to have it complete its assignment.
