ntbackup / wsus? sql? / Error returned while creating the volume shadow copy / Event Source: VSS / Event ID: 6013

Sponsored Links

I have a 2003 sp1 machine which has worked well since installation, recently
I have added WSUS which I believe comes with a version of SQL.

Recently scheduled NTbackup jobs are failing with this in the backup log:

Error returned while creating the volume shadow copy:80042319

and this in the application log:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: VSS
Event Category: None
Event ID: 6013
Date: 02/11/2005
Time: 00:54:42
User: N/A
Computer: CHERRY
Description:
Sqllib error: OLEDB Error encountered calling ICommandText::Execute. hr =
0x80040e14. SQLSTATE: 42000, Native Error: 3013
Error state: 1, Severity: 16
Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Error message: BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally.

Any ideas?

When I remove WSUS the backup succeeds. I tried to re-register the following
binaries:
net stop vss
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

But it didn't work. I also tried to apply the KB833167 hotfix from microsoft
but it said that this hotfix is not nessecary for my machine (windows 2003
server x64 SP1)
I'm really stuck on this problem. Anybody an idee?

Make sure that the Volume Shadow Copy Service is running in the Services MMC. Mine was some how set to manual, therefore it was not currently running. I changed it to automatic and started it. Then the backup ran just fine.

Thanks
