Hi Rubén, No. You are talking about files of the client. I am talking about (internal) files of bacula in the tape. The permissions problem is not surely your problem. Only when you read explicitly "Marking Volume "YOURVOLUMENAME" in Error in Catalog" then, a little before, you will see the cause of the "Error Status".
