I've been getting this error at the end of my log file:
[2/7/2011 2:00:41 AM] Preparing shadow copy
[2/7/2011 2:01:04 AM] Shadow copy created.
[2/7/2011 2:01:13 AM] Close catalog file "C:\Users\Stewart\AppData\Roaming\Softland\FBackup 4\fkcFiles\Incr Backup.fkc"
[2/7/2011 2:01:13 AM] Error: Backup aborted. Reason:
Cannot create a file when that file already exists
Backup aborted at 2/7/2011 2:01:14 AM with 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
What file ist it referring to? Did the backup succeed?
I'm running on a W7-64 platform doing a shadow backup to an external USB drive on another W7-64 computer. I think the read/write permissions on the external drive are wide open...but I could be wrong, I haven't managed to figure out Windows file security settings completely.
File already Exist err msg

The second time it ran with the same settings as I ran with to get the good back up cited in my previous post I got the same error and no back up:

I looked in fkcFiles and saw Incr Backup.fkc there for last night so that isn't the file to which it's referring. Over on \\server\G-Backup\Server-backup1 where the setup was directing the back up target, I find a directory structure of the disk and two folders along with their sub-folders specified to be backed up. There are files in some of the sub-folders as would be expected probably from the run the night before last. Security for the lowest level shows that I and my home group have complete access permissions. I notice in the general tab of properties that the "Read Only" button is on, but I don't know how to click that off for all folders in the image back up area, there are a lot of folders and I don't think I should have to do so. Especially since the first back up worked that created the folder and the file in each.
HELP!!
