I am trying to backup a folder on Computer A to a folder on Computer B.
When I set up the backup profile and test the connection it says everything's OK. But when I try to do the backup it fails saying it cannot create the target folder. The target folder is already there and doesn't need to be created.
But, the target folder is not exactly the same as the one defined.
Say the target folder is:
\\computerB\targetdrive\targetfolder
It will say it cannot connect to or create
\\computerB\targetdrive\targetfolder\C\
Here's the error message:
Error running backup job 'My Backup' from "My Backup Jobs" group.
Cannot create directory "\\computerB\targetdrive\targetfolder\C\".
Retry to create directory or cancel backup?
There is no "\C\" on the end of the target folder name.
