small business server 2011 and 2008 backup failing
Published on June 22, 2014 by mark in server
VSS – various error messages, several fixes we apply all at once to cover all bases
fully update your server, reboot
Run the sharepoint configuration wizard from start –> programs –> sharepoint –> reboot
run this batch file to register and fix certain DLL’s
Open an Administrative command prompt.
Change directory to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\BIN
Run PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force -cmd applicationcontent -install -cmd installfeatures
stop SQL server VSS writer
Try backup after all of this, or after each fix to see if it works
