Can you copy and paste the exact commands that you enter, and the output of
them?
By the way, I have found out that it is very easy to crash the file daemon
when running the Exchange plugin, and it is not always obvious.
Whenever anything goes wrong, it is a good idea to check that it is still
running. Restarting the director helps too.
Also, I have found that you can only restore reliably from a full or a full
and a single incremental. If you have a chain of incrementals, it doesn't work.
Which rather defeats the point of the plugin.
There has been an unacknowledged bug entry for this for a month now
(bugid 1647).
