FuzzyJohn 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2010 I had one JPG file that had no problems running Retrospect Single Server v6.5. After upgrading to v7.5 I started getting the "File did not compare error". A week ago I installed v7.6 and the error remains.I made a copy of the file and the copy also fails to verify. I resaved the file and the newer version verifies OK. I have no problem ditching the original (which did not compare) but I am uneasy as this may still come up with other files. The verification method I use is the default. Fast forward two years. As my last post indicates, resaving the 2 files eliminated the "file didn't compare" errors. Now I started getting the same error on 2 different JPG files. These are files that have been backed up without any problems for about 8 months and now, all of a sudden, I get the "files didn't compare" errors. The files have not been changed ever since they were placed on the server. OS: Windows Server 2000 Retrospect: Retrospect Backup Single Server v7.6.111. Verification Method: Default. I can copy the files to other locations without any error messages from Windows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ramon88 2 Report post Posted July 24, 2010 Maybe you should try to (free) update to Retrospect 7.6.123 and see what happens? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgowing 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 I am afraid I am also experiencing this problem on a trail copy of 7.7 for Windows we are running as a test at a client. I am agreat fan of the MD5 Digest verification, and have used seamlessly at several of my customers. This is my first experience of this problem. I get a simple statment that Path\file.jpg didn't compare. On the same server during the same run I am also getting :- An error occurred during the verification step. The MD5 digest for the file "C:\DATA\Home old do not use\benita\My Documents\nero.nrg" did not match, error -1129 ( MD5 digest mismatch) And necoIncoming: empty stream packet, tid 34 or 33 The client is MS SBS 2003 SP 2, and the Retrospect is on a separate server. Has anyone else had this bug reappearing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
