ExplorerManagementService: Failed to create Explorer session

[ks.any.cloud]

Hi guys

im writing a script to restore latest SQL backup to a file, and i got some errors so i tried to run the commands in powershell and got the result below.

Commands:

Code: Select all

Get-VESQLRestoreSession
$restorepoint = Get-VBRApplicationRestorePoint -SQL -Name "Veeam" | Sort-Object –Property CreationTime –Descending | Select-Object -First 1
Start-VESQLRestoreSession -RestorePoint $restorepoint

Result:

Code: Select all

Start-VESQLRestoreSession : ExplorerManagementService: Failed to create Explorer session
At line:1 char:1
+ Start-VESQLRestoreSession -RestorePoint $restorepoint
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Start-VESQLRestoreSession], Exception
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.Exception,Veeam.SQL.PowerShell.StartVESQLDatabaseRestoreSessionCmdlet

I have installed SQL browser, but that did not solve the issue.

Hi Kim,

In your further posts please use </> label to wrap your script examples and errors in code tags to make it clearer.
As for the issue, I do remember several bugs related to this powershell exception, but it is hard to find precise root cause without viewing the logs. Please open a support case and share its id here so that we could follow it up closely.

Thanks,
Oleg
