Thank you very much for you time I have had issues like this before and have resolved them by removing the partial backup using the script from http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/backuppc/index.php?title=How_to_delete_backups Copy the script to your local bin directory and then run it like so: /usr/local/bin/remove_old_backups.sh -c server_name -d 326 (or whatever the number of your partial backup is) Once the partial backup has been deleted try running a full backup again and see if that completes successfully. > > Kind regards, > > Matias > > +---------------------------------------------------------------------- > |This was sent by arctic...@gmail.com via Backup Central. > |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. > +---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
