I think it could have its origins outside of Bacula. I'm backing up a lot of Windows systems running Oracle and Java. Certainly some Java applications (OC4J) seem to have some strange controls over the file system, I also have problems with .Net applications on certain other systems where I get errors which nobody else seems to get. 1. Packet size too big (apparently fixed, but the fix doesn't help for me) 2. Overlapped I/O operation is in progress, when trying to take a VSS snapshot. Since the Windows file system is a rather different beast from UNIX and I've never had a sniff of a problem backing up our FreeBSD, Linux and Solaris systems I'm inclined to suggest they are responsible. The 'more than one file name' error doesn't tell me what file has more than one name, although I think it is supposed to: 30-Jul 19:00 bacula-dir: backup-gdc055.2006-07-30_19.00.07 Warning: sql_create.c:831 More than one Filename! 2 for file: I believe the path to the file should be printed after the colon, perhaps a valid file in Windows created somehow with a null/empty name? It seems strange that it would happen on a number of clients almost at the same time. In fact - this all started on 28th of July, interestingly it seems to have originated on the system of a .NET developer. After his initial backup it looks like pretty much all our developers systems started getting the same error message. I can make the mail report from Bacula available to interested parties but I'd rather not make it widely public. I've had a read but I don't really know what to look for and frankly the log is rather odd, perhaps even a red herring. Very happy to work with interested parties on the issue, preferably in private until the issue is resolved (if there is one).
