Search for "warning:" in the log file. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/this-does-not-make-sense#post-2734 Thu, 02 Jun 2011 16:54:46 +0000 HandyHomme 2734@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Thanks for the reply,</p> <p>But, scanning the log, there are no warnings in it. Just confused as to where that "1 warning(s):" came from.</p> <p>If it was not from within the backup, it would be handy to know what/where it refers to. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/this-does-not-make-sense#post-2729 Thu, 02 Jun 2011 14:14:56 +0000 Admin 2729@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>From the partial log you send, I understand the test found no warnings and the backup was made with one warning. The warning during the backup execution could not be related to the resulting zip file tested at the end of the backup. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/this-does-not-make-sense#post-2728 Thu, 02 Jun 2011 04:15:41 +0000 HandyHomme 2728@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Here's a report from a backup that ended, and I quote "with some warnings."<br /> ************************************************************************************<br /> * Test finished at 6/1/2011 8:42:31 PM, 66967 file(s) and 3714 folder(s) tested, 0 error(s) and 0 warning(s) found<br /> *<br /> * Total number of files added to backup: 66967<br /> * Total number of folders added to backup: 3714<br /> * Total size of files added to backup: 14,135,666.48 KB (uncompressed), 9,686,431.55 KB (compressed)<br /> * Number of files excluded: 0<br /> * Number of folders excluded: 0<br /> * Next scheduled backup:<br /> * Backup completed at 6/1/2011 8:42:31 PM with 0 error(s), 1 warning(s)<br /> ************************************************************************************</p> <p>So is it one warning or no warnings? </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/exclamation-point#post-2715 Tue, 31 May 2011 11:48:38 +0000 Admin 2715@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Please download the latest version of FBackup 4.6.253 as there were some fixes regarding the scheduler. Try again using the Windows scheduler.<br /> In Backup Properties->Scheduler->Edit->Schedule, go to Settings tab and check the "Wake the computer to run this task" option.</p> <p>You always have in destination at least one good backup in case something happens because the old backup is removed only after the new backup is done. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/exclamation-point#post-2691 Fri, 27 May 2011 12:51:18 +0000 MikeyChris 2691@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>When I do that I only have two logs - one is a non-scheduled full backup I did a week ago, the other log is for the previous night's data backup. It seems to be wrtiten over every night. Maybe I'm not setting FB up right. I originally had one daily job to back up all data. Then I realized I needed at least two backups in case something went wrong during the backup that corrupted the backup. So I made two daily backups, one runs Sun/Tues/Thurs and the other runs Mon/Wed/Fri/Sat. I did that when I could still use the Windows scheduler (see otehr post about problems I am now having with using Task Scheduler). Then I decided to do a Daily every day. when I set that one up I had to use the internal scheduler because TASK SCHEDULER didn't work anymore, and I set up one Daily Backup with multiple events (one for Sun, one for Mon, etc.). I have since deleted that because the computer goes to sleep and evidently the backup won't run.</p> <p>What's the best way to set up daily backups so you always have at least one good backup in case something happens during a backup?<br /> Thanx. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/exclamation-point#post-2685 Thu, 26 May 2011 13:49:57 +0000 Admin 2685@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>FBackup saves all logs. To access the log folder, go to View->Job Logs->Open Log Folder. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/exclamation-point#post-2678 Thu, 26 May 2011 11:25:46 +0000 MikeyChris 2678@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>The exclamation went away the next day.</p> <p>About the logs, it appears that FB only saves the last log, is that true? There are abbreviated logs kept in another file, but I can only see a detailed log of the last backup, and that is overwritten daily, right? </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/exclamation-point#post-2666 Wed, 25 May 2011 09:56:17 +0000 Admin 2666@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Please send us the last backup log from View->job Logs->Last backup log to info[at]fbackup[dot]com </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/exclamation-point#post-2642 Wed, 18 May 2011 11:00:34 +0000 MikeyChris 2642@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Every time I run a backup, there is an exclamation point in a yellow triangle on the icon in the left pane of the main FBackup window.

The firm that did this for me sold me an external drive and installed FBackup 4.3 for me. They suggested I backed up my stuff regularly.<br /> I ran full backup three times First time it seemed to hang up on me and I could only turn power off to exit. Second time it ran to complete and recorded 75 warnings most relating to skipping files due to an apparently open file. I ran full backup a third time today (having not used the computer since second backup) and I have 2930 warnings. Is this to be expected or should I take some corrective action? </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/warning-and-error#post-398 Wed, 01 Jul 2009 13:49:05 +0000 Admin 398@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>We were able to reproduce the problem in FBackup and we will fix it. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/warning-and-error#post-396 Tue, 30 Jun 2009 17:54:32 +0000 Spillage 396@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi. I'm new to backups and I've recently installed the latest version of FBackup (build 143). Every time I run a Backup to my external drive, I get multiple Warnings/Errors in my Log File. I'm running in Mirror mode. For example I did an iTunes (from the Plug-in) backup and got 47 Warnings of Skipping Files. I can confirm that the files are defintely there, even though the log says "Destination error (code 3). The system cannot find the path specified". I have also emailed the catalogue folder to info[at]fbackup[dot]com.<br /> Can you please help.<br /> Thank you, Spillage </p>
