Backup Exec 11d, error 1068 the dependency service or group failed to start
I am running windows server 2003 standard as a standalone machine-it is not networked and does not have any server configurations set.
I installed backup exec 11d successfully BUT every time I launch it I receive "could not start backup exec server service on local computer, error 1068. the dependency service or group failed to start".
I checked services and Backup exec server is installed.
any ideas will be greatly apprecitaed- again this is a tes server and does not have anything other then backup exec installed on it and is not networked.

look at the dependencies of the services for backup exec. Go to services and double click on a service. The tab dependencies. look which one is not started !! doesn't have to be one from backup exec itself
Check if the following two services have been started - verify in the exact some order as I list them:
SQL Server (BKUPEXEC)
Backup Exec Device and Media Service
One of them most likely won't start. Based on the error you get when you start it, take corrective action.

ok so I was able to make a successfull backup, but my understanding was that the file will be backed up as it is, meaning if I need to backup file called "text.mdb" to C:\testing the file will be backed up as "text.mdb" where in reality a file called whatever.bkf is created.
is my backup supposed to be named with an extension of "whatever.bkf" and not the actual file name.

hi,
no the file is backed up with its original name. What you mean is ntbackup.
Backup exec copy's the file to whatever location you want. it doesn't create a backup file ( .bkf )

it does for me when I run a new job.do you know if I configured something wrong where it is not letting the file backup as it is?
thank you

hi,
then you have to do a copy backup

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
It depends what and how you want to backup.
If you do a " normal " backup to tape there's no problem as honmapog said encapsulating all your backup files in bkf files
If you do a copy ( i use it sometimes if i have to move a lot of data ) you can use "Backup-to-disk" device
