eMail report does not list number off errors

Post by Todd »

Under "normal logging", errors are not shown.
2021-12-02 17:49:26 Backing up the directory "C:\NtUtil" to "E:\MyDocsBackup\backup1\NtUtil 2021-12-02 17;49;26"...
2021-12-02 17:49:26 The directory "C:\NtUtil" has been backed up.
2021-12-02 17:49:26 * Backup part for task "KVM-W11 Reflector Test" ended. Number of backed up files: 1. Backup part size: 550 bytes. *
They do show under "Verbose logging".

RFE: please add back the number of errors, including zero, to Normal Logging. Users are only going to want to see "Normal logging" (the default) and will not realize when an error has happened.

What version are you using?

The number of errors IS shown in normal mode:

2021-12-09 00:18:52 *** Number of errors: 0. Time elapsed for the task "New task": 0 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds. ***

Hello guys,

I would like to add this :

@Todd : "Under "normal logging", errors are not shown." ... after each "backup part".
@Cobian : "The number of errors IS shown in normal mode" ... but only at the end of the backup.

2022-01-01 00:00:00 * Backup part for task "Happy New Year" ended. Number of backed up files: 1. Backup part size: 1 bytes. *
2022-01-01 00:00:00 ** Backup for the task "2022" has ended. Number of backed up files: 1. Created folders: 1. Backup size: 1 bytes. **
2022-01-01 00:00:00 *** Number of errors: 0. Time elapsed for the task "2022": 0 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds. ***

Hi Luis,

Sorry for the late response. Since you do not eMail out updates to issues, it is difficult for me to remember to manually check all my issue.

I am using CobianReflector-0.9.65.exe (my download program renames your name and adds the revision number.) I am also using Windows 11-21H2.

I am backing up to a drive that is deliberately full, so it will generate errors. Log is set to max (Verbose)

Problem, first backup after a reboot, Reflector does not ever try to do a backup:

I really don't know if the backup is supposed to start. I don't have the list to analyze.

AFAIK, you should attach following files for Luis to understand what is going on :
  • Cobian Reflector tasks list : C:\Program Files\Cobian Reflector\Lists\MainList.lst
  • Cobian Reflector settings : C:\Program Files\Cobian Reflector\Settings\Cobian Reflector.ini
Best regards,
Gabriel
