9.0.1 (110) not recognising itself and backup

[ajwh 0]

Two issues - possibly related.

 

I upgraded from V8 to 9.0.0 (89) and then to 9.0.1 (110)

 

When I start Retrospect, it insists on telling me that V9 is available - do I want to upgrade.

 

Possibly related - the retrospect client on the same machine - 9.0.0.(187) keeps telling me there's been no backup for over a month - not true!

You really should not have the Retrospect client installed on your backup server. This copy of Retrospect can not do a network backup of itself. It runs as a local backup.

 

You can ignore the warning about needing to download the update to 9.0.0. The current version is 9.0.1

I know it's not actually the client - it's the bit of the program which sits on the task bar and produces warnings....

The only thing that can "produce warnings" like that is the Retrospect Client software.

I don't have a client installed on this machine - the client database only shows two networked machines.

 

I have a red icon on the lower right task-bar. When I hover over it, I get the attached frame.

The screenshot clearly shows that you do have the Retrospect client installed. That is why the text "Open Retrospect Client preferences" appears in that window. Have you looked inside add/remove programs for the Retrospect Client?

Aha - Retrospect Client 9 is installed - I'll remove it. I don't know how it got there...

OK Icon has gone.

 

I must have had a finger malfunction when installing 9.0.0 (from the date).

 

Thanks
