I installed Fbackup 4.7 today on my Windows xpPro computer. I use Fbackup to backup my Outlook 2007 .pst files. I created a schedule, but it will not work. I can manually backup ok.
The error page says:
Configuration
Schedulers
fba_Outlook 2007.job
Application not set or invalid
How do I fix this error?
Configuration Error...

I have the same problem as N7AS. It was working fine until I disabled the schedule, now I can't get it re-enabled. I check the box in Properties/Scheduler and save it, then when I close Fbackup and reopen it, I get the error and the box is no longer checked. I'm running build 266. I saw a message somewhere while I was trying to get it working that said to go to Tools/Options and check a box to allow the scheduler to run without a password, but that option is not there.

Yes, I have tried it with both the built-in scheduler and the Windows scheduler, same results. I have a hunch that it is somehow related to the fact that I don't have a Windows password set. I'm guessing that the "run without a password" option that I mentioned above only exists in the paid version(?).

Yes, it will run one time and then gets disabled. Opening Fbackup after that shows the backup was completed, and the Configuration Error message. I have completely uninstalled and re-installed Fbackup, same deal. I guess I'm just going to have to find another backup application to use, which is too bad 'cause I really liked Fbackup. Oh, well.
