Re: Backup job won't finish and can't be cancelled

Yes that seemed to work, but of course I have now lost my other backup jobs. Is there any way of restoring them from the old folder?

Re: Backup job won't finish and can't be cancelled

I closed all 3 FBackup processes in Task Manager, then restarted FBackup and restarted the backup job. Once again, it does not complete. It just seems to hang after writing this line to the log: Opening file ":memory:" It never gets removed from the "Running" list, and remains hi...

Backup job won't finish and can't be cancelled

I have a job which has been running for several days now. I have tried cancelling it, without success. I also tried deleting the associated .fkc file on the destination, and stopping/restarting the FBackup service. It just won't budge. I'm running Fbackup v9.9.948 on Windows 11. The log is attached....

Can FBackup wake Windows 10 for scheduled backups?

I currently run my FBackup jobs overnight on my Windows 10 PC, but would like to leave my PC in sleep mode overnight when the backups are not running. Is it possible for Fbackup to wake the PC from sleep when it needs to execute a scheduled backup, then put the PC back to sleep when the backup jobs ...

Job keeps repeating endlessly after upgrade to v9

I recently migrated from v8.9 to 9.0 (build 199) - free edition. Ever since the upgrade one of my scheduled jobs keeps endlessly repeating 24/7. It's scheduled to run at 02:00 every day, but actually keeps completing then restarting all day long until I cancel it. Any idea why this might be happenin...

Re: "Access denied" errors after upgrade from v8.9 to 9.0

I just tried re-creating one of the jobs manually in v9.0. When I try to run it manually it gets added to the "Running" list but never executes. We are also corresponding via a separate thread in the Troubleshooting forum (sorry - I put this message in the wrong forum) so will follow up th...

Re: No backups running after upgrading from v8.9 to 9.0

No I didn't get any error/warning messages during the upgrade - it all appeared to go smoothly. If I try to run a job manually it gets added to the "Running" list, but the job never starts. After attempting to run it manually in this way the option to run it again becomes disabled (I am on...

No backups running after upgrading from v8.9 to 9.0

I was prompted to upgrade FBackup (free edition) from v8.9 to v9.0 a couple of days ago. I did the upgrade, and imported all of my backups from v8.9. When the scheduled backups ran on the first night, from a Windows 10 machine to various drives on an Ubuntu file server, all of the jobs failed with a...

Re: "Access denied" errors after upgrade from v8.9 to 9.0

...and now a day later I've noticed that none of my daily scheduled backups ran last night. I then tried running some of them manually, and couldn't get any of them to start. So upgrading from 8.9 to 9.0 has basically completely trashed my backup regime.
