Error reading file

Im gettting an error when backing up: (It happens on several files)

Error Reading the File (0x40001)
Tag=0X61F188FE
50B0A2F (0x1003EB)
Tag=0x14181022EF 45AC01
Retry/Ignore/Canel

Ive run "chkdsk /r", "verified" the raid, and run the driver tools from Seagate. All of which dont show any errors.

Any idea as to what may be causing this Oh and I have updated to the latest release.

The sytems is a Dell 670 running a RAID 1 (2 500gig Seagates) on WinXP64.

Thanks,

You may want to try the following: -

1. Set the backup to the slowest speed and see if the problem goes away

2. Disconnect from the Internet, and then disable your AV and Firewall

Ive tried the AV before and it didnt make a differance.... as for the firewall, Im not sure all of the files are local but Ill give it shot. Ill chekc into slow the back speed... Im not sure were that is.

Thanks,

Backup speed is set in "Setting Backup Options". Set the "Backup Priority" to Low, this will ensure that the backup is created using the slowest speed. The actual speed depends on your CPU, RAM and other factors.

But give it a try and see if it helps...

Setting it to slow didnt work. I have to wait until tonight to try the internet disconnect.

Sorry I did forget to mention that:

Acronis True Image Workstation w/ Acronis Universal Restore version 9.1 build 3,887

Running on a Dell 670, 500gig RAID 1, WinXP64

Let me know if you need more information

I am running Acronis True Image Workstation 9.1 with current updates and I receive the same error; Error reading the file. (0x40001).

I have found that on occasion (Not all the time) that if I run a file backup from a clean boot that it works more often (but not always).

My system is a new high end custom build that has not show ANY other problems.

Did you ever get this error resolved??

 

I too get this error "Error reading the file. (0x40001)" - 15 files (of thousands) had this error! Is this a CRC problem, a permissions problem or what?

This was my first full backup of c:\users\*.

These errors stall the backup process and had to push the pop-up "ignore" to complete the backup. A backup file of 30Gb was created with all but these 15 files / folders.

Looking at the log, I see that I pushed the retry option ten times on the first but still got the same error. Finally I pushed ignore. On the next two errors I retried twice and then did ignore. On all subsequent I pushed cancel. Some errors were jpg files in the same directory but others were not. Some were files and some were folders.


A typical error message is:

<event code="1" id="5" level="4" message="Failed to backup file or folder 'C:\Users\Robin\Archive\My old computer documents backup from f colon\My Pictures\Photos 2006\5 Spain March 2006\IMG_0650.JPG'.
Error reading the file. (0x40001)
Tag = 0x61F1883FE50B0AF4
(0x1003EB)
Tag = 0x14181C22EF45AC01: Retry/Ignore/Cancel" module="4" time="1185677067" />

In the last error the log lists the folder name incorrectly.
The folder is:
'C:\Users\Robin\Computers & Network'
The log lists:
'C:\Users\Robin\Computers &amp; Network'
The last error was the folder 'C:\Users\Robin\Contacts' - a Windows-generated folder.

Most errors were in subdirectories of directory 'C:\Users\Robin\Archive\My old computer documents backup from f colon\' but others were not. This gives a fairly long pathname (around 150 chars) but well under 250. Many peer files were handled without errors. I can look at any of them with image viewers.

The problem seems not to be a timing or network problem as the retries show the error can be repeated ten times.

I am using Windows Vista on a fast new dual core Pentium with 2Gb of memory. I am backing up onto a new XPSP2 workgroup server. I am using True Image Home 10.0 build 4,492.

I am also doing an incremental sector method backup daily with no errors, but it generates 5Gb daily! So I need more focussed file backup and that is where I have this problem.

Some were files and some were folders.

What is the problem?

Suggested change to the program:
It seems to me that the True Image 10 'Default backup options' should have another category 'Error handling' with an option:
either 'On error - prompt user'
or 'Do not prompt user - Log all errors and continue'
and would report final status 'Backup completed with omissions - see log'. This would work quite well for full backups allowing most files to be backed up with those that are not being logged. It would work less well for incremental backups where correctly backed up files might be deleted.

You are not the only one suffering this problem, it has been ongoing for months, if you do search within the forum you will found others with the same problem. Disconnecting the virus/firewall and internet is not an option when systems using this program are remote.
It is very frustrating and I know the developers are aware of this and other problems which have not been cleared since I started using this program in version 7. ie. when doing back ups to the another hard, why not self deleting the oldest files so the system runs continously with out us having the manually delete to make space on the back up drives. But obvioulsy they have reasons, but do not disclose them to us, and its keeps this forum active.

Hi,
I get the same error (0x40001) when I want to create a full backup of the mDaemon folder (mailserver) to a local network drive.
When I perform the same operation to a local drive, everything is ok.

I have the latest version of ATI Workstation on WinXP Pro and I have performed a checkdisk.

Updating snapAPI.dll does not help.

 

Hello tom_sm,

Thank you for choosing Acronis Remote Workstation Disk Backup Software.

Please notice that most likely the backup was created successfully, and the failure occurs on the validation step. Please try removing the "validate archive after creation" checkmark and see if the error message disappears. If that's the case, to make sure the backup is not corrupted you can copy it to local drive and validate there.

If the problem remains, please try limiting network speed in Backup Options.

If that doesn't solve the problem, please do the following:

- Run "regedit" command (Start -> Run);
- Find the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\parameters registry key;
- Increase the IRPStackSize value or create it and set to 18, if it does not exist.

If the issue persists, please collect some information to let us investigate it thoroughly:

Please collect the application log of the operation:
- run the program;
- select Show log on the toolbar or from the Tools menu;
- select the log with error messages;
- click "Save the log entry to file" (the diskette icon).

Please also describe your network configuration in details (where is Acronis True Image installed; where are the folders to be backed up stored; where are you directing the backup to).

Then submit a request for technical support. Attach all the collected files and information to your request along with the step-by-step description of the actions taken before the problem appears and the link to this thread. We will investigate the problem and try to provide you with a solution.

Thank you.

I've been using Acronis True Image v10 for a while and the day after I installed McAfee SecuritySuite 2007 I started getting these errors.

I'll bet that there is a relationship between the two.

What Antivirus are you running?

 

I have the same problem with the Read-File-Error (0x40001).
Sometimes a backup is finished without any errors and the next day i got the read-error again. The error occurs on different files every time - never the same files.
Wen I try to open such a file, everything is fine.
CHKDSK etc. also fine.

Has anyone solved this problem
How can I auto-reply to this annoying read-errors.
These erros stop the backup-process evry time :-(

I habe Acronis True Image Home 10 Build 4.942 on Win XP SP2

 

Norton used to be infamous for setting the IRPStacksize too low. Perhaps McAfee is doing that also.

See Marat's Aug. 8, 2007 post on this.

I'm using ATI 10 and after appyling the updated drivers, I still get the same error. The priority for my backup was already set to LOW. I have NO COMPRESSION. Using Win XP, SP2. Same problem if I try right after rebooting the PC. Doesn't matter if I disable antivirus; I dont have any software firewall.
This is pathetic that so many people have this issue for so long and support has not been able to resolve it.

 

Hello all,

bluesmith, could you please let me know your Acronis request # which was sent to you in autoreply to your letter? I will find out how the investigation of your issue is going.

Thank you.
