Backup Issue

[MitchellEve]

Hey Guys,

I recently setup a Home Server to have Windows 7 automatically backup. The home server has a 1TB HD and I've set full permissions for everyone in my network but the problem is Windows 7 will go so far with backup and then all of a sudden it will stop and say it can't be completed.

Then if I click Details it just comes up and says Access denied. Whats up?

Have you checked the Event Viewer for any errors?
Do you have a screenie we can see?

yeah, I'll give you all the errors from Event Viewer when I get on my PC.

So what do I do?

Looks like your backup destination drive needs to be in NTFS format. Can you confirm this is the case please?

it is in NTFS

Hey Guys,

I recently setup a Home Server that allows me to automatically backup my computer files to the network server. The server is running Windows 7 Ultimate but I've slimmed a lot of things down and turned off a lot. It has two hard drives

1. 40GB HD - With the OS
2. 1TB HD - For storage

Each time I try to backup my files I get an error so far the errors have been the following:

• The backup was not successful. The error is: Access is denied. (0x80070005).
• The backup was not successful. The error is: The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003).
• The backup was not successful. The error is: The system cannot find the file specified. (0x80070002).
• The backup was not successful. The error is: A backup cannot be done to a remote shared folder which is not hosted on a volume formatted with NTFS. (0x807800B0).

and

• The backup operation that started at '‎2009‎-‎10‎-‎22T22:03:36.307200000Z' has failed with following error code '2155348315' (Windows Backup encountered an error when accessing the remote shared folder.). Please review the event details for a solution, and then rerun the backup operation once the issue is resolved.
• The backup operation that started at '‎2009‎-‎10‎-‎22T22:25:55.987200000Z' has failed with following error code '2147942402' (The system cannot find the file specified.). Please review the event details for a solution, and then rerun the backup operation once the issue is resolved.

Sometimes if I click View Details to see what went wrong it will just come back with "Access Denied" resulting in this in the Event Viewer: The backup was not successful. The error is: Access is denied. (0x80070005).

I would love to use backup, but I can't get it working. Please help.

Are you getting all of these errors at each backup?
"The backup was not successful. The error is: Access is denied. (0x80070005)." says to me that the files are in use by something and therefore cannot be accessed/backed up.
Is the PC to be backed up in use when the backup is running?
