• Looks great but I have a problem

    By sean cull 2 decades ago

    This looks really fantastic but it only works if I back up to the root ie E:\ as opposed to E:\xxxxx

    If I specify a folder it does create the folder but then I get the error "Could Not Create Backup File E" in the console



    Has anyone else found this problem ?



    There are also two release 1.02b downloads, one is correct ( ATTFH7QG.zip ) and one appears to be an older release



    but as I said it looks really usefull



    Thanks, Sean

      Can you post an example of your backup document. Does the user the Domino server runs as have access to the newly created folder?

        Hi Tom,



        sorry for the delay in getting back to you, we had our first child in Janruary and my "discretionaery" time vanished. The problem must have been at my end, I could not find my original setup but when I did it agin it seemed fine.



        I have been messing around with the database getting it to create a different folder for each day using scheduled agents to change the directories. I am keen to have a go at making this front end better and letting you have it - would you be interested ?



        The broad idea would be to have an action that compiled a list of all of the databases on a server with a record per database. Users could then flag selected databases for backup and also assign these to folders. There would also be an option to increment the folder name daily ( based on a scheduled agent )



        I don't think this would need you to change your dll - I have no idea how to modify dlls in any case. One question would be - does your dll look for all of the documents in the database or all of the documents in a given view - for the above system to work I would need to be able to tell it to ignore some documents by either flagging them or excluding them from a particular view.



        Once agian, aplogies for the bum steer and the time taken to come back to you
