I've owned Retrospect 8, 9, and I just upgraded to10 last week and all versions have periodically done the same thing. Backups work great but then stop with the next "Waiting" backup saying "Waiting for Execution unit" even though no backup is currently running and hasn't run for days. The previous backup (days prior) completed with no errors/issues. I found if I click the "Pause" buttom (to stop all executions) and then click it again to restart things, then my backups continue OK until the next time it gets stuck. I shouldn't have to keep monitoring Retrospect to make sure it is correctly running my scheduled backups and this hasn't been fixed in 3 different versions of Retrospect. Any suggestions, thoughts, or ideas would be appreciated.

Any update on this? I too am having the exact same issue. Having a list of cmds to manually create the same ISO that Retrospect would create would be helpful.

Hmm. Surprise surprise, following the recommendation in the form you mentioned which suggested adding: export LANG=C to /etc/init.d/rcl [at least that was where the file exists on my machine] and running a backup, all appears good (the errors I previously saw are gone). I even restored some of the files and compared them (on the Linux machine using "diff") and they all compared OK so it appears that the backup worked. I should mention that the default value on my system was: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 I'll update the other form too. Thanks

Sorry if I posted this in the wrong section. Should I ask this question there (or is there a way to move this to that form)? It wasn't clear whether it was server side or client side (you are right, it is more likely the client side). My client is running version 7.5.112 which appears to be the latest version.

I have a folder on a Linux Retrospect client that contains ISO 8859-1 characters in the filenames and the Retrospect server is producing errors when trying to back up those files. The error I'm seeing is: File "/home/www/phpGedView-4.0beta1/images/flags/réunion.gif": can't read, error -1101 (file/directory not found) There are also files containing Hebrew characters that are also not being backed up. Obviously Retrospect sees the file so what is going on that it can't backup the file?
