reports an error "Unable to list the Exchange mailbox users. Make sure sufficient permissions are available for the user account under which service is running.
Resolution :
If you encounter an error while accessing "Add Exchange Mailbox Backup" page in the webconsole, then follow the steps given below to resolve the issue:
Create a new user with sufficient rights through Active Directory Users and Computers.
Assign "Full Mailbox Access" permission to that new user.
Use this new account with full mailbox rights as service's logon account and restart service. Specify the display name of this account [and global catalog server name in case of Windows Server 2008 machines] in the configuration page that opens on clicking the link shown at the bottom of the tree view section and check if mailboxes are listed successfully.
Add the 'MSPST MS' service by modifying the MAPISVC.INF file.
(NOTE: above 3 steps should resolve the issue in listing the Mailbox users in the "Add Exchange Mailbox Backup" page. However 'MSPST MS' service should be added in the MAPISVC.INF file to successfully backup the Exchange users mailbox).
Please refer Granting Mailbox Rights document on creating a new user and granting the sufficient rights to access the mailboxes.

reports an error "Unable to list the Exchange mailbox users..." when trying to configure Exchange Mailbox level backup in 2007 Exchange server (64 bit) machines.
Resolution :
uses Microsoft's MAPI client component installed in the Exchange Server to backup the Exchange Mailboxes. For 64-bit environment the MAPI client component is yet to be released by Microsoft. Currently, uses its 32-bit exe to list, backup and restore the Exchange Mailboxes in 64-bit machines. To accomplish this, 32-bit exe requires Microsoft's 32-bit MAPI client component.
Please refer Granting Mailbox Rights document on creating a new user and granting the sufficient rights to access the Exchange 2007 mailboxes.

SG0147/SG0136: Unable to connect to the Backup Server
Cause:
This error occurs when
Client is not able to connect to the Backup Server's Backup Port (default 32004).
is not started in the server machine, therefore Backup Port (default 32004) is not occupied by .
Resolution:
Confirm if the client is able to connect the Backup Server's Backup Port (default 32004) by executing telnet <Server Name/IP Address> <Backup Port> command in the Client system through the command prompt.
If the telnet command doesn't work, then check the firewall configuration of the Server and make sure the Backup Port (default 32004) is open for the incoming traffic.
Check that the server is running in your Server machine and the Backup Port is in LISTEN state by executing netstat -an | find <Backup Port> [in Windows OS] or netstat -an | grep <Backup Port> [in Linux OS] in Backup Server system.
If Backup Port is not in LISTEN state, start the in the Backup Server. Also make sure is running as Server.
If the Backup Port is in LISTEN state and telnet command fails, make sure the Backup Port is open in the Backup Server network's NAT/Firewall settings.
Also confirm that both the backup server and the client are configured with the same Backup Port (by default, the port should be 32004). Verify this by checking the < Home>/conf/SGConfiguration.conf file.

SG0198: Connection failure error / SG0083: Unable to send backup details to server
Cause:
These errors occur when the connection between a client and the Backup Server is closed prematurely by an external force, while the is actively processing the backup data to the Backup Server. The external forces may be:
NAT/Firewall configurations.
Low end routers/switches.
Intrusion detection software.
Internet-link error.
Resolution:
Most routers, NATs and firewalls keep a track of all connections made through them. They will assume a connection to be dead if no data is transferred in either direction for a certain time interval and they may then close the network connection. Hence, check the “Idle Socket Timeout” configuration in the NAT/Firewall settings.
-
The premature closure of the connection can be prevented by configuring either the Keep Alive Time in the Windows Registry or by configuring the Application Level Keep Alive Time (available since 2.2 Release)
Top
-
SG0132: Invalid remote socket
Cause:
This error message occurs when client exits or its connection is closed when the backup is in progress. Check the Client side historical backup report from the Backup -> List Backup Schedules -> Backup Summary Report(action) -> Click to view historical backup report (link). The historical backup report page will show one of the following errors:
' stopped during backup' – This error indicates that either the process was stopped during backup or the Client machine was shutdown/restarted while the backup was in progress.
'Unable to send backup details...' - This error indicates that the socket connection was closed prematurely. Check the timeout settings in the server side NAT/Firewall settings. Sometimes an existing socket connection is closed when the socket remains idle for a specified time period.
Resolution:
-
This problem occurs when the socket connection to the backup server from the client is disconnected for reason. When the connection between the client and the backup server is lost, the client will automatically try to reestablish the connection and proceed with the backup from where it left off. However, if the client is not able to reestablish the connection after several attempts, then this error message is thrown In such a scenario, check the elements (NAT/firewall/Router) in the network and see if they are closing the connection for some reason.

-
SG0145/SG0134: Unable to get target machine
Cause:
This error occurs when there is a problem in resolving the Backup Server's name at the client side. This can be verified by running the following commands in the client machine's command prompt:
ping <Backup Server Name> command.
nslookup <Backup Server Name> command.
If the above commands work, then the should be able to resolve the Backup Server's hostname. If the above commands fail, then check the DNS configurations on the client side and make sure that the client is able to lookup Backup Server's hostname. Also, try running the telnet <Backup Server Name> <Backup Port> (by default the Backup Port is 32004) command in the client machine. If the telnet command works (shows a blank console screen), then backup should work.
Resolution:
If the client is not able to resolve the Backup Server's hostname, try configuring the backup with the Backup Server's IP address as the server name by following the steps given below:
-
Go to the Settings -> Add/Delete peer page in the Client web console.
Delete the Backup Server name from the list of running machines.
Add the IP address of the Backup Server in the Add Peer. Now the IP address of the Backup Server will be listed in the list of backup servers in the Backup -> Add Backup page.
Configure a backup using the Backup Server's IP from menu Backup -> Add Backup page.

SGRP0001: No Server available for Replication
Cause:
This error will occur if the Backup Server is unable to connect to the Replication Server during the replication process due to one of the following reasons:
Replication Server is not running in the system.
Backup Server is not able to resolve the Replication Server's hostname due to DNS lookup issue.
Replication Port (default: 32004) is not open in the Replication Server side NAT/Firewall/Router settings.
Resolution:
Use the following commands to check the connectivity from Backup Server to Replication Server:
ping <Replication Server Name>
nslookup <Replication Server Name>
telnet <Replication Server Name> <Replication port>
If the above commands work, then replication should also work. If the ping and nslookup commands fail, then it is a DNS lookup issue for the Replication Server hostname from the Backup Server. If the telnet command fails, then check if the Replication Port is open in the firewall at the Replication Server and make sure Replication Server is running in that port.

-
SG0083: Exceeding allotted backup space in the server
Cause:
This error occurs if the client is trying to use more backup space than the allotted space.
Resolution:
Check the allotted space for the particular client in the Backup Server.
-
To increase the space for the client in Backup Server, go to Server Admin -> Group Management -> List of Resellers -> [Group_Name] -> [Customer_Name] -> Edit Configuration (Action for the particular Client) page and enter the required space in Space Allotted field. Refer to the URL PageHelp/client-backup-configuration.html for more details.

Server incorrectly shows that a backup is still in progress when the client has suspended the backup
Cause:
This error occurs when the TCP connection between the client and the server is closed prematurely, due to which though the backup was suspended in the client, the server thinks that the backup is still in progress. In the next incremental backup schedule from the client, will reset the status of the backup schedule in the Backup Server. If the reset of active status completes successfully, then the client will continue the backup. However, if for some reason the reset of active status fails, then backup will fail with the 'Backup in progress' error message in the client's backup report.
Resolution:
This error should be cleared during the next backup schedule. If it doesn't, then try restarting the Backup Server once to see if this error goes off in the subsequent schedule.
This issue is fixed in v2.3 by updating the status based on the Keep Alive messages (for each backup schedule) received from the clients.

-
Clients not backing up to the server after moving the clients from trial group
Cause:
This error could occur if the client is deactivated or the group doesn't have enough MCALs.
Resolution:
Make sure that the group and client are not deactivated by going to the Server Admin -> Group Management page and then checking the action (activate/deactivate) for the particular group. To check the client status, go to Server Admin -> Group Management -> Group [group name] page and check the action (activate/deactivate) for the particular client.
Ensure sufficient MCALs are available for the group.
Check the MCAL's configuration to verify the MCAL's limit set to the particular group.
Increase the allotted MCAL or edit the MCAL configuration for the group to AUTO by choosing the option Automatically use MCALs from the Server Admin -> Group Management -> <Group Name> -> Edit Configuration page.
Now, try configuring the backups from the client to the server and check if the error is resolved.

-
Problem in accessing the snapshot device while opening file
Cause:
This error appears when the is unable to open the configured files for backup from the snapshot device, when the 'Volume Shadow Copy' option is enabled for the backup schedule. This happens if the file to be backed up doesn't exist when the snapshot is performed, but exists while is listing the files for backup.
Resolution:
will backup these skipped file(s) in the subsequent backup schedules
Check the skipped files count in the next schedule.
If the problem persists, try disabling the 'Volume Shadow Copy' option for that backup schedule through the Backup -> List Backup Schedules -> Edit(Action for the particular backup) -> Advanced Options page.

“Error Code 21 Cannot Start ” message from the tray / “Error in Starting " message from Tray
Cause:
These errors occur when the tray is unable to start the Application or the Service. The reason could be one of the following:
The Tray application doesn't have permissions to start the Service.
The Application file is not available at the Tray Applications path, i.e < Home>\bin location.
Another instance of is already running in the machine.
Resolution:
Check if the Tray Application is running in an user account who has privileges to start the Service.
Check if the service's logon user has enough privileges to start Windows services.
-
Check if any other instance is already running in the system. You can verify this by checking for "StoreGrid.exe" process in the 'Task Manager' tool. If there is already another instance running, try stopping that process and then starting it again.

Client did not receive a valid license from the Backup Server
Cause:
This error occurs if the client does not have enough MCALs for the Group in the Backup Server. will validate the MCAL allotted for the client based on the MCAL pool allotted to the Group or globally on the Server. The MCALs will be used every month for the clients in the Backup Server based on the client's operating system and the usage of SQL & Exchange Server Plugins in the client.
Resolution:
Apply MCALs for the group. For more information on MCALs and their usage in the Backup Server, refer to the following URLs:
For MCAL Management : PageHelp/mcal-management.html
To Add MCALs : PageHelp/add-mcals.html
For MCAL Utilization : PageHelp/mcal-utilization.html

Group Migration failed. The target group does not have enough licenses (MCALs)
Cause:
The error message occurs when there are not enough MCALs available for the group to which the clients are being migrated.
Resolution:
-
If the paid group doesn't have enough MCALs for the new clients, generate the necessary MCALs through the Partner Zone from your existing MCAL credits and add them to the Backup Server using Server Admin -> License management -> Add MCALs page in the Web console.

-
Failed to authenticate this client with the Backup Server
Cause 1:
If Disable Auto Authorization is selected in the Backup Server.
Resolution:
Enable Auto Authorization option for the particular group and check.
Cause 2:
If there is a password mismatch between the Backup Server and the Client.
Resolution:
If this is the case,
-
Reset the client's password in the Backup Server. Go to Server Admin -> Group Management -> List of Resellers -> [Group Name] -> [Customer_Name] -> Reset Password (Action for the Backup Server) page in the backup server's web console.
-
Reset the server password for the client through Settings -> Authenticate Client -> Reset Password (Action for the Backup Server) page in client's web console.
-
Authorize a new password (for both client and server) by editing the password in the Backup Server in Server Admin -> Group Management -> List of Group -> [Group Name] -> [Customer_Name] -> Edit Client Configuration page in the server web console and then authorizing the client with the same password from the Settings -> Advanced Options -> Authorize Client page in the client web console.
Resume the backup schedule and check if it works.

Backup request failed for backup [Backup Name] To Server [Server Name] with Error : Unable to take backup to Replication Server
Cause:
This error will occur if the Backup is configured directly from the client to the Replication Server.
The Replication Server will not accept the backup request from Clients.
Replication Server is designed only for receiving replication requests and replication data from the Backup Server and to handle restore requests from the client.
Similarly, the Backup Server is designed for receiving Backup/Restore Requests from the client.
Hence, Replication Server will not process the backup request from the client.
Resolution:
Configure backup from client to Backup Server.
Enable replication in the Backup Server for the corresponding group.
The client will backup to their server and the backup data on the server will be replicated to Replication Server.

On backup completion, a message "there were no modified files" is shown though several files were actually modified
Cause:
This error might occur if files to be backed up are from a mapped drive and Automatic Directory Monitoring is enabled for the backup.
-
client running on Windows OS can use the Windows Directory Monitoring to get a notification when a file configured for backup is added/deleted/modified.
These notifications are saved in the database to create the list of files that need to be backed up during the next backup schedule.
However, notifications are not sent by the Directory Monitoring when the files modified/deleted/updated are in a mapped drive.
Therefore, will not be able to identify the changed files when Automatic Directory Monitoring is enabled for backup of files from a mapped drive.
Resolution:
Disabling Automatic Directory Monitoring should resolve this issue.
Uncheck Automatic Directory Monitoring in the Backup -> List Backup Schedules -> Edit Backup Configuration (Action for particular backup) -> Advanced Options page.
If the backup is already in progress, then suspending and resuming it manually will make the list all files/folders for backup again and therefore the files will get picked up.

-
SG: Unable to allot backup space
Cause:
This error will occur if the sum of the allotted space for all the clients is larger than the total allotted space for the Backup Server.
Resolution:
Before increasing the space for a client, confirm if the server has enough allotted space.
Then increase the allotted space for the client.
If the server does not have the necessary space, increase the allotted space for the Backup Server by going to Settings -> Server Settings page and then increase the allotted space for the client.
After increasing the allotted space for the client in the Backup Server, schedule the backup from the client and check if the backup is successful.

-
not able to backup over the internet
Cause:
is not able to connect to the server on the Backup Port (default 32004).
Resolution:
Check the Backup Server side NAT/firewall settings. Make sure the incoming traffic on the Backup Port (default 32004) to the Backup Server is not blocked.
Run a quick check for the connectivity from the client with the command telnet <server name/server IP Address> <Backup port>.
If this command works, then the client should be able to backup to the server over the internet. If it fails, then make sure that Backup Port (32004) is open in the Firewall/NAT configuration in the network where the server is installed.

doesn't seem to work in XP SP2/SP3
Cause:
In Windows XP SP2/SP3, the firewall is enabled by default. can neither discover other peers nor it can backup data to other machines.
Resolution:
Either disable the firewall settings or enable the ports for to work.
-
To disable the firewall, follow the steps below:
Open START->CONTROL PANEL->WINDOWS FIREWALL
Select Exceptions tab
Under 'Programs and Services', click on Add Programs button
Browse and choose the StoreGrid.exe and Apache.exe. StoreGrid.exe is located at "InstallDir"\\bin directory. Apache.exe is located at "InstallDir"\\apache directory. "InstallDir " is the location where is installed (by default it is C:\Program Files).
Select OK to save the configuration and exit. can now use any TCP/UDP ports as the firewall settings have been disabled for the and Apache applications.
-
Enable to the following ports:
TCP Ports: 32004, 32005, 32007, 32008, 6060, 6061
UDP Ports: 32006, 6363, 6364
Open START->CONTROL PANEL->WINDOWS FIREWALL
Select Exceptions tab
Under Programs and Services, click Add Port button

Server is not listed in the "Backup Servers" list
Cause:
automatically discovers other peers in a network using various means (multicast, UDP port scan, TCP port scan etc). If for some reason a server or client is not discovered automatically, it will not be listed in the 'Backup Servers' list.
Resolution:
Manually add the peer to the list from the menu item Settings->Add Peer. In the "Add Peer" page, enter the peer’s name or IP address. This is especially relevant if some peers are outside the network (as in the case of remote online backups).
Top
-
has exited, do you want to restart it
Cause:
This error appears when application is shutdown and Windows does not clean up the TCP network connections.
Resolution:
Run the command netstat -a from a command window (Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt) and check if the TCP ports 32004 or 32005 are in listening mode. If the ports are in listening mode, then the system has to be restarted.

Linux installation fails while installing GD/PHP (applicable only to versions older than 2.3)
Cause:
uses Apache, GD and PHP for its browser based user interface. is bundled with Apache, GD and PHP source files and these files get compiled during installation. installs Apache, GD and PHP in "/" directory. And it is packaged with the modules that are required for user interface. If the required packages or third party libraries are not present, then the compilation will fail.
Resolution:
Before installing in linux machines, please check that the following packages are installed.
make, available from http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/make/
gcc, available from http://gcc.gnu.org/
g++, available from http://gcc.gnu.org/
libstdc++5, available from http://gcc.gnu.org/libstdc++/
The following third-party libraries will be used by GD if found by configure. While GD will compile and install even without these, it is recommended that at least zlib, libpng, freetype and jpeg are installed as well:
Data compression library: zlib, available from http://www.gzip.org/zlib/
Portable Network Graphics library; requires libpng, available from http://http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/
Free, high-quality, and portable font engine: FreeType 2.x, available from http://www.freetype.org/
Portable JPEG compression/decompression library: JPEG library, available from http://www.ijg.org/
To install PHP following 3rd-party libraries are required :
Flex, available from http://lex.sourceforge.net/
Flex is a tool for generating programs that perform pattern-matching on text.
Bison, available from http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/
Bison is a general-purpose parser generator that converts a grammar description for an LALR context-free grammar into a C program to parse that grammar.

Unable to log you in. Make sure is running / No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
Cause 1:
application is not running in the system.
Resolution:
In Windows OS.
Confirm that the application [StoreGrid.exe] is running in the system by using "Task Manager".
If the application is not running, start through the system tray application.
In Linux OS
Verify if the application is running in the system by executing the command 'ps -e |grep '.
If the application is not running, start it with the command "sh start.sh" in <_HOME> directory.
If you see the following error message: "error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5..." while trying to start , check whether the libstdc++.so.5 and other compatible libraries are installed in that system. You can check this by listing the libraries by "ls -l /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5*" command.
-
If it is a 64 bit system, make sure 32 bit compatible libraries are present in your 64 bit Linux OS as runs as a 32 bit application in a 64 bit Linux machine. If the libraries are missing, please install 32 bit compatible libraries in your system and then try to start .
For example, if your Linux flavor is Debian or Ubuntu or Gentoo, then install the 32 bit libraries with the following command:
$ apt-get install ia32-libs
For RedHat machine, you can search the dependency packages and install it by the following commands:-
$yum search <Package Name> - To check the package is in the machine or not.
$yum install <Package Name> - To install the package.
Note: The above command should be executed with the root user privileges.
Cause 2:
The web console is unable to connect the applications UI communication port [by default, 32005].
Resolution:
Confirm if the is in the listening mode at the UI communication port.
Verify this by running the command 'netstat -an | find "32005"' in the command prompt to check if the port 32005 is in LISTEN state.
Run the "telnet <machine name> 32005" command in command prompt to confirm if the web console can access the application UI communication port.
If any personnel firewall/intrusion detection tools are installed in the system, try adding the StoreGrid.exe, SGTray.exe applications and 32005 default port in the NAT/Firewall configuration's exception list and then try logging into the ’s web console.

doesn't seem to run properly after upgrading Windows to Vista.
Cause 1:
If was installed in an older version of Windows and then if the OS was upgraded to Vista, may fail to run.
Resolution 1:
Install (upgrade) the same version of again on top of the existing install.
Cause 2:
is installed under C:/Program Files in Vista.
Resolution 2:
Make sure you run with the option "Run as Administrator". The reason been, Vista allows an application to access the 'Program Files' folder only when run as an administrator user. You can enable the 'Run as Administrator' option for the < Home>\bin\StoreGrid.exe application from it's file properties dialog through 'Compatibility' tab -> 'Privilege Level' -> 'Run this application as administrator' option.
If you don't have administrator access or if you don't want to run under the administrator account, make sure you install under your user account folder or install it in a folder which is not under 'Program Files'.

Error while dumping the Exchange Mail Boxes. Unable to create the PST file [or] "No new/modified files for backup"
Cause :
'MSPST MS' is not configured in the Exchange Server.
Solution :
The MAPISVC.INF file should have the information of the Microsoft Personal Folder store service. If this file does not have this information, then the Exchange Mailbox dump will fail with an error indicating that it was "Unable to create the PST file" [or] "No new/modified files for backup".
The MAPISVC.INF file is usually located in the Windows system directory (e.g.C:\Winnt\System32\ or C:\Windows\System32\).
Verify the file has an entry for the Microsoft Personal Folder store service. You can determine this by looking for the following information. If this information is not in the file then you need to add it in the proper sections:
Note: Please take copy of your "MAPISVC.INF" file before making any changes.

I had changed the dump location and now I am not able to restore the previous backups.[Applicable for Exchange Server, Exchange Mailbox and SQL Server backups.]
Resolution :
Please follow the steps below to restore the files from backup server to client and then to the Exchange Server/SQL Server.
- Restore the files in the backup server side which were backed up before changing the dump location (i.e. backup files pertaining to the old dump location).
- Transfer the restored files from the backup server to the client machine, say by using an external USB drive.
- Edit the 'restore.conf' available in "<Restored_location>/plugin/" folder in client machine.
- Change the 'DumpLocation' attribute value to old dump location in <StoreGrid><Restore><Plugin> tag.
- Save the 'restore.conf' configuration file.
- In the client machine, choose the second option - "I have previously restored data from my backup server to a local folder. I now want to use this data to restore the Exchange Mailbox." in 'Step 0' in the Restore Backup Data page and restore the files restored in step 2 by specifying the location of the files in 'Restore Location' field.
