Hello,
I installed the bacula win32 version on a Windows Vista 64bit
pc.
I enabled VSS in the job definition.
But I got the error message after every job.
So I checked the services “Microsoft Software Shadow,
Copy Provider” and “Volume Shadow Copy”.
Both services are started.
Then I checked the eventlogs.
I found error messages like this:

I also installed this bacula version on a windows 2003 64bit
server. There I have no problems with VSS.
I research the net and found a thread. It explains
differences about VSS under win 2k3 and win 2k8 in 64bit version. It seems that
win2k8 VSS can’t handle calls from a 32bit application. http://www.nabble.com/VSS-failure-backing-up-Exchange-on-Windows-Server-2008-64bit-td18743108.html
Is there anyone who has the same problem?
Does a workaround exist for this problem?
What’s with bacula version 2.5 beta? Does this work?
Regards
Manfred
