EID:206:The filename or extension is too long
Posted: 06 Sep 2005, 13:07
I'm evaluating APbackup.
Backup process (incremental, from several folder on local disks and paritions, to a different backup dedicated local disk) fails with the following error:
06.09.2005 12.58.10:[1001][E] Unexpected error. Either source or archive folders are invalid[Can not create destination file: [EID:206:The filename or extension is too long.]"Z:\200509061256\Documents and Settings\.....
The system is an XP SP2 and disks are NTFS.
But the problem seems to be related to the length of the path to be copied.
Is there any limit in the strings used by the software, limit smaller than the one used by the OS?
Tank you in advance,
Best regards.
