Re: [PilotMgr] "Unable to fully expire modified archive"
You probably have a file on your Palm with a 'strange' name. Next time
look in the oldest backup to see what was left over. I used to have
this problem when I had a database called 'Internet A/C' - the / char
seemed to be causing the problem. I never got around to investigating
why this was causing a problem for the Backup conduit - I just took
the easy way out and renamed my database to 'Internet AC' and it has
been working fine ever since.
