error message when backing up but no logs available

Post by wandbutt »

Hello,

we receive this error for an agent-based backup on a Windows host.

Error: Failed to establish connection to Amazon S3. See log file Task.HOSTNAMEAGENT on server HOSTNAMEBACKUPSERVER for details.

HOSTNAMEAGENT is the hostname of the Windows server to be backed up. On the Veeam B&R server, I searched C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Backup and its subfolders but do not find any with a name like Task.HOSTNAME... . There is a file called Task.Host in the subfolder Resourcescan in this directory but it does not contain any logs why the job failed.

Where can these logs be found?

Best Regards
Mildur

Hi wandbutt

Please check the agent logs directly on the protected host:
C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Endpoint
