Could you please make sure that the user on behalf you try to backup your SQL Server databases has enough rights to the following folder C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.EPOSERVER\MSSQL\Backup
No is not resolved. I’m still facing problem not to able to backup my 1st copy SQL data.
I installed the SQLBackupAndFTP in PC1
SQL data is in Server1
Grant domain administrator right for C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.EPOSERVER\MSSQL\Backup
Run SQLBackupAndFTP but failed all the time with error message [ERROR: Failed to backup “ePO_ANTIVIRUS-SVR” database with “Full” backup type: Could not find file ‘C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.EPOSERVER\MSSQL\Backup\ePO_ANTIVIRUS-SVR201711210005.bak’.]
I hope someone can help as I’m evaluating this software.
FYI, I installed the SQLBackupAndFTP on the machine that have MS SQL installed and run the backup. Surprisingly it able to backup successfully.
Don’t tell me that SQLBackupAndFTP only worked when it installed in the same machine as MS SQL installed and not on other machine (backup across network)
Sorry, but SQLBackupAndFTP version 11 cannot perform a remote backup. [Correction: as of Feb 2018 remote backups are included again] Please install and use SQLBackupAndFTP version 11 on the same computer where SQL Server is installed.
Remote backup is rolling out automatically in SQLBackupAndFTP version 11.4.2. If you don’t have it updated yet, just wait a day or two. To do a remote backup, on “Connect” window select “Remote SQL Server” in “Server Type” field.
