Preparing for backup Error: EndpointBackup

Post by Hans-Juergen »

I am using the version Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows 2.0.0.0.700 - Free Edition.

The Agent doesn't work. I only get the error message Preparing for backup Error: EndpointBackup
The backup should be made to a NAS over the network. With the Windows Explorer, i have access to the NAS.

can you give me a tip to make the bakup work again?

nice greetings

Hello everyone,
we are experiencing the same issue on some of our machines, and recreating the configuration database fixes the problem (see https://www.veeam.com/kb2335 for reference). The backup configuration needs to be recreated from scratch, but it's no big deal, at least for us. I don't know if the issue is somehow related to Microsoft's security patches, but again is not a problem in our environment, so...

Hope this helps, at least a bit.

Regards.

Davide M
