Hi! In my opinion the most common error for the filedaemon in windows not to start is that you have not specified the working directory and/or the piddirectory correct. If my memory is correct it is not a full path in the default config file and if you change it to the full path including the driveletter then it should work.
WorkingDirectory = c:\program\bacula\working Pid Directory = c:\program\bacula\working Hope this helps. /marcus Rainer Kormann wrote: > Hi, > > i'm trying to backup files from win2003-server.
