none of the requested files were backed up  (2)

I have checked that there is space on the drive and that the conf file is "rw" not only "r".

I dont really know why it just stoped working...It dossent even look like its staging the DB.

Problem  Solved:

There was some old staging files from an failed backup in the staging folder. They where the cause of the problems.

Hi Andy

Thx for your replay looks like the same problem.

I can hardly take credit for resolving your issue as I only commented "after the fact" that it looked similar to the other post! Could well be that your resolution may help sort the other posters issue.
