shadow copy:0x80042319

I am using SBS 2003 with SP1 and also have 3 hard drives and external backup disk. The scheduled backup fails permanently, but manual backups complete successfully. By manual backup I mean by going to the SBS SRV Management Console and clicking on the "Backup Now" button. So, all the settings are the same as for the scheduled backups as well. Can anyone tell me how to solve this issue? Thanks. Below is the error that I am getting:

=====================<BEGIN NTBACKUP LOG FILE>=====================

As per your question it seems that SP level should be atleast SP1. So you can try to exclude System State for a test. Some of them find that they have to do SS separately. Also check that VSS is running or not. You should also try to re-register your VSS dlls. As per the microsoft support this is the proper procedure to follow when re-registering the Volume Shadow Copy Service Dll's.

CD to Windows\System32
Net stop vss
Net stop swprv
regsvr32 ole32.dll
regsvr32 vss_ps.dll
Vssvc /Register
regsvr32 /i swprv.dll
regsvr32 /i eventcls.dll
regsvr32 es.dll
regsvr32 stdprov.dll
regsvr32 vssui.dll
regsvr32 msxml.dll
regsvr32 msxml3.dll
regsvr32 msxml4.dll

After that restart your server. After the restart, open cmd prompt and then run: vssadmin list writers

Make sure that all your writers are displayed without any errors, if you are backing up to tape, MS CSS usual suggestions are:

1. Try the job to a local or external hard drive
2. Check the HCL for the tape drive compatibility with Windows Server 2003.

If I execute the followings commands

CD to Windows\System32
Net stop vss
Net stop swprv
regsvr32 ole32.dll
regsvr32 vss_ps.dll
Vssvc /Register
regsvr32 /i swprv.dll
regsvr32 /i eventcls.dll
regsvr32 es.dll
regsvr32 stdprov.dll
regsvr32 vssui.dll
regsvr32 msxml.dll
regsvr32 msxml3.dll
regsvr32 msxml4.dll

is there any chance to corrupt my server's database or any data?

I think No, if you want to register dlls then it wont corrupt any data or databases. You can check the SBS support which is working on:

And also check your SBS with the SBS Best Practices Analyzer
