Problem
Exception: illegal characters in path
Solution
ISSUE
When doing a
run now in report mode for the FSA [File System Archiving] archiving task no
report is generated and nothing is logged in the event log.
A run now in
normal mode will not archive anything and will not have any events in the log.
TROUBLESHOOTING
A Dtrace of
the EVFsaArchivingTask process of the FSA archive task will reveal the following
line "Exception: Illegal characters in path." Below is a sample of
a Dtrace with the error highlighted in bold:-
(EvFsaArchivingTask) <1500> EV-H{FileSystemArchivingCheckPoint.ReadCheckPointFile}
Start reading the checkpoint file named .\FSATaskCheckPoint\File System
Archiving Task ("H" Users Drive)_BDS Marketing_ReportRunNow.xml
(EvFsaArchivingTask) <1500> EV-H{FileSystemArchivingCheckPoint.ReadCheckPointFile}
Exception: Illegal characters in path. Info: Diag:
Type:System.ArgumentException ST: at
System.IO.Path.CheckInvalidPathChars(String path)| at
System.IO.Path.GetFileName(String path)| at
System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode)| at
KVS.EnterpriseVault.FileServerArchive.FileSystemArchivingCheckPoint.ReadCheckPointFile(FileSystemTaskInfo
taskInfo, String checkPointFile, Boolean loadBkFile)
(EvFsaArchivingTask) <1500> EV-H{FileSystemArchivingCheckPoint.ReadCheckPointFile}
Start reading the checkpoint file named .\FSATaskCheckPoint\File System
Archiving Task ("H" Users Drive)_BDS Marketing_ReportRunNow.xml.bk
(EvFsaArchivingTask) <1500> EV-H {FileSystemArchivingCheckPoint.ReadCheckPointFile}
Exception: Illegal characters in path. Info: Diag: Type:System.ArgumentException

Please see
the related documents section for instructions on how to setup a
dtrace.
RESOLUTION
Rename the
FSA archiving task taking out the illegal characters and restart the EV Admin
service.
