Backup to Windows network share
Hi, I use ReadyNAS fw 6.5.0 and have setup some backup jobs from ReadyNAS to a network share. One of the jobs (Type = Full) fails with this error: Backup Status: Fail: destination is read-only o...
Hi,
Source is ReadyNAS and destination is a Windows 7 share.
Backup Source: [Gemensam]/ADMINISTRATION - KONTORET
Backup Destination: [remote:cifs]///192.168.1.12/Backup/AdminKontor
The strange thing is that I don't have a folder named "job_005" or file named "__foo__.19098" and all files are copied fine from source to destination.
I have deleted all files/folders in destination, but still same error.
Kind regards,
Tommy
Hello TommyD,
Can you check the destination folder on the computer if you can write to it?

Hi JennC,
Yes, I can write to destination folder. As I wrote... all files are copied fine from source to destination.
Kind regards,
Tommy
Hello TommyD,
Can you the destination folder's permission?
See this article. You might also want to setup a new backup job that has the same destination to test.

Hi,
I have Read/Write permission on the folder. I have setup the backup job as the article decribe. I have done new backup job with the same result.
Do you know what the filename (__foo__.19098) means? It's nothing we have in source folder so it looks like a file reference that's made up by ReadyNAS, what do you think?
Thanks
