Backup Finished with error(s). LA2287: Not enough free space on drive . Backup requires free space equal to account limit plus an additional 60 MB of swap space

If you get an error about not having enough free hard drive space then:

OK, this is what I did:

--This stores the database files:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Online Backup\Database

--This is the registry entry where the temp fle gets created:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER-->SOFTWARE-->@Backup-->OnlineBackup-->EngineGroup
Key=DataDirectory (it was: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Online Backup\Database\)

Changed to:
Need the "\Database" otherwise it jsut bombs, so I changed it to:
D:\IntuitOnlineBackupTemp\Database

--I left the directory empty, and it brought down the database file it needed.


Also the first couple of times I tried a restore it bombed, if I went on-line it worked???

CAUTION: Make sure you back up the registry if it gets corrumpted you run the severe risk of taking the whole server/computer down!! ==========
