Re: Error backing up the Registry

Hello Joe,

Thank you for posting back and the backup logs!

>From the log files, I cannot find much related errors. I need to know
whether you have performed fully backup before you install SBS 2K3 SP1?

Based on my research, when we installing the SBS 2K3 SP1, server always
reports some error messages. For your case, the SBS 2K3 SP1 has not being
fully installed on your server yet at the moment, so I suggest you that
strictly follow the installation instrunctions below and fully install all
the patches in SBS 2K3 SP1 on your server, then reproduce the issue again
to see whether the issue occurs again or not.

I am appreciated your time and cooperation. If you have any questions or
concerns on this issue, please feel free to let me know. I am glad to be of
assistance!
