7.7 "TMemory::freeSpace: HeapValidate failed"

[rxlaw 0]

What the heck is this error that shows up in the log for backups? Every time.

 

And where is the procedure for the update ("Patch") that I've seen others post about here?

 

7.7, two "lucky numbers," have been anything but with respect to Retrospect. :angry2:

When you open Retrospect it should ask you if you want to install the driver update file.

 

That update does contain a memory bug fix.

Robin,

 

Thank you. Unfortunately, Retrospect did not offer to update itself. I found the update patch file on the website and manually applied it.

 

The error doesn't appear in the logs anymore. Can you tell us if that memory problem caused any untoward effects on the integrity of the backups?

 

Bob.

I'm still seeing these messages.

I am seeing the same errors, also with Driver Update Version 7.7.1.102 on Win7 x64

 

Retrospect also locked up in the first two attempts of a full backup...

I am getting this as well, but only on a Transfer backup sets operation:

 

version 7.7.203 (64-bit)

Driver Update and Hot Fix, version 7.7.102(64-bit)

Hi,

Yes, I am getting this too, but not on every backup. I have Retrospect 7.7 64 on Win 7 x64. All patches up to date.

I too am getting exactly the same message and have created a new post called "TMemory::freeSpace: HeapValidate failed"
