EmCopy Error codes

Reading EMCOPY Error codes can seem cryptic. In reality, emcopy will most of the time display normal Windows codes. Here is the reference on how to read them, and where to get information.

All Windows codes can be found here: System Error Codes

Sample Errors in the LOG:

TH005 : 11:14:05 : ERROR (32) : V:\Data5\w5385.pst -> Unable to open, Failed after 1 retries.

So, here, the ERROR is 32, which Windows defines as:

Code: ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION 32 (0x20)

Description: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

TH064 : 10:21:22 : ERROR (2) :
vdm4\fs41$\6E1BB5DF-8122-AA86B2598977 -> SD not set, Failed after 1 retries.

With ERROR 2, the reading is the following:

Code: ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND 2 (0x2)

Description: The system cannot find the file specified.

Mark,

Thanks for you reply , Do you know what the error 5 specifically means . the share folder has full access as everyone.

We are having the same issue, where you ever able to resolve error 5

Hey Ahill , In my case it was an access issue . If you still have issue, there is tool call beyond compare , its a licensed tool but , it is free for a month use.  try this tool to copy the missing files . this tool does a side to side comparison and will show you the missing files on the target .

Hello there,

You can get the error messages decoded from cmd prompt by typing "net helpmsg ".

I too have the same issue and have no clue with error code 32 & 64 even though I'm performing the activity from a LAN connected host with Domain Admin creds.

32: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. (I checked and the location is not being used/accessed/mapped by anybody.)

64: The specified network name is no longer available. (Both the servers are always available).

Any help would be appreciated

Best regards,

Vivek Soni

Error 32 usually indicates that the file being copied is locked by a process on the source (for example a user has the .doc file opened by MS Word)

Error 64 usually when UNC path points to a file which no longer exists, it should not repeat during incremental copy

It can also occur if source is overloaded because EMCopy is running with a lot if threads or source is a stub (archived) and source cannot be found

Both errors should resolve during incremental copies. If not then they should be investigated further

Thanks Claude, I'm running an incremental and I see all warnings at the moment with "File will be recovered following posterior copy failure" instead of errors. Is this is normal ? Do you think another run after this completes will be required to completely copy the data ?
