COM failure 0x80042308 #2

Migrated from SourceForge: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2129263&group_id=117783&atid=679446

VSS service running on 32-bit XP Pro. Hobocopy executed interactively against a mapped drive with full permissions. Example:

hobocopy H:\Outlook H:\Outlook_Backup

Also tried:

hobocopy H:\Outlook H:\Outlook_Backup archive.pst /recursive

hobocopy H:\Outlook H:\Outlook_Backup archive.pst

Full feedback error message received after that command is executed is: There was a COM failure 0x80042308 - .\HoboCopy.cpp (349)

Migrated comment:

hobocopying from a local to a mapped drive worked, but only once. Second time I ran the same command I saw this: There was a COM failure 0x80042317

Notice the different error code.

Can't repro. But see http://kb.backupassist.com/articles.php?aid=2965 for some excellent suggestions on what might be causing the problem.

Also note that 0x80042317 is "maximum number of snapshots reached". You can use vssadmin delete shadows to get rid of some of the old ones.
