robert800 Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 I coulnd't find any post so I'm starting a new one. I recognized that RetroEngine doesn't connect to the destination afp share for backup. I'm backing up my client to a retrospect file which is stored on an afp share. My Mac was as sleep and so Retrospect couldn't run the backup. As soon as I woke up my Mac RetroEngine starts the backup. So far ok. But RetroEngine cannot do the backup because the volume to the afp share isnt mounted. So RetroEngine hangs. My afp share only mounts when I start the RetroConsole by clicking on the dock icon. So directly after waking up my Mac I have to start the RetroConsole. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eppinizer Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 I am a bit confused. Is the problem that you can't connect to the afp, or you lose the mounted connection after your mac sleeps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olli Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 (edited) I encounter exactly the same problem: I added my backup destination - an AFP share - in Retrospect Console under Sources. The scripts run fine until the next reboot of the machine. After the reboot the AFP share does not get mounted automatically by Retrospect Engine and as a consequence all subsequent backups fail. Once you start up the Retrospect Console it will mount the share and everything is back up working again. The problem simply is that Retrospect Engine will have to mount the AFP shares specified in Retrospect Console automatically if they are not mounted already.

Mayoff Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Thanks for the description. That is strange and I will report it as a bug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert800 Posted March 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) @ JMcIntire: like olli said. RetroEngine doesn't mount automatically my afp share. I had to open RetroConsole to mount the afp share Robert Edited March 29, 2009 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
