Yes, I think it is broken in 5.0.3. Check Job.PurgedFiles in the catalog for the bscanned jobs. If it is 1 then set it to 0 and restore should work. __Martin ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Thanks.

Thanks again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
