TeamworkServerBackupTool issue

Anonymous — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 09:31:48 GMT

Hi all,
I'm facing a big issue while trying for the first time to make a backup of our BIM Server (modules 14&15) thanks to the TeamworkServerBackupTool script.
The command line is : TeamworkServerBackupTool.exe "S:\BIM_Server"

The error message is :

What's the problem ?

Is this due to the fact that my default project repository is D:\Data files\Graphisoft\Projects (Attachments for the libraries) ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Maxime

Ok, I found why it didn't work :
1) You have to run it as an administrator.
2) Set TW services to run as a domain account (Computer -> Manage -> Services -> Log on as -> ...).
3) Don't use letters like S: for mounted network drives, give the full path instead.

My trouble now is that, although I used module 15's script (ie the higher module script), only V15 projects and libs were backuped. So I have to use both V14 & V15 scripts to save the whole BIM Server... Is that normal ???

Again, found by myself on archicadwiki :

rem -- The TeamworkServerBackupTool will only save projects from the top most module -- in this case AC 15
rem -- Restore tools only work for their current module, so you should dump projects from lower modules into separate ...

So this is what I did.
