tb303 Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 I'm using Retrospect 7 and every night we backup about 30 GB of files. The problem is that I get error on 40 of the files and I can't find any help anyware on how and what the problem is. We backup our data to a 250 GB external Firewire harddrive connected to our server. The files mentioned in the report seems to be correcte... Thankful for any help and suggestion! The errors are like this: poster 1.psd": didn't compare at offset 90 in stream ":Comments:DATA" MCskin1.jpg": didn't compare at offset 98 in stream ":AFP_Resource:DATA" hbg_ANP_inst_800-1.psd": didn't compare at offset 99 in stream ":AFP_Resource:DATA" \H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natew Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Hi Are you backing up these files from a Mac? It sounds like the files are either corrupt or there is innacurate file system information about them on disk. To resolve it, move (not copy) the problem files to another physical disk. Then copy them back. This will force the OS to rewrite the files and file system info for the files. Thanks nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tb303 Posted December 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2005 Hi! Yes these files are located on Mac's. I'll do what you suggested and I hope it'll work. Thank you for your help! \H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tb303 Posted January 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 Hi again. unfortunately the errors still remain.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natew Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Hi Is it the same files every time? If you duplicate to another disk does the problem still occur? The error may be related to write failures on your external drives? Thanks Nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tb303 Posted January 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 hi again. the files are the same every time and I've tried several different external harddrives but it's still the same. I'm also using retrospect express 5 on another machine that backs up the same files to anothe disc and the strange thing is that I ghet no errors there although it's backing up the exakt same thing over the network..
