Hi @ricardofpt - can you be more specific? What are you trying to open? Where? The Console? The ‘General Options’ within the Console? Other?

Thanks!

Hi , in the console 

Ok, thank you. Have you tried to close the Console, then reopen. Reboot your Veeam server, then login and re-attempt to get into the General Options area?

To be honest, I’ve never seen an error like that before just trying to get into a configuration area within the Console. And I’ve used Veeam for over 10yr!

Yes, I've restarted the server, the console, I've even installed the updates, and nothing, I can't access the options :-(

Ok, I found this KB on the error, though it’s referring to this error in a job. Can you just attempt to do this procedure (basically, rescan any Windows servers in your Backup Infrastructure > Managed Servers area), and see if your issue is resolved?

I'll try, I'll leave feedback

I would actually ‘rescan’ all servers you’ve added → Any virtual servers (vCenter or ESXi Hosts; Hyper-V), Windows servers, & Linux servers.

I've already done all the procedures, the error remains :-(

Is this a new server build/Veeam install? Can you reinstall it? Can you backup your DB (Console > Menu > Configuration Database) and backup your DB in an accessible location; rebuild your server; then, import your Veeam DB and re-attempt? Although, I’m thinking the issue has to do with your DB.

You can also reach out to Support, even though you’re using the free version (it appears from your screenshot - Community Edition).

It's been an installation for a few months now, do you know which contact I can use?

Contact?..for Support? Just go to veeam.com, hover over Support at the top, then select ‘Open a Case’. You’ll be prompted to login. You can then create a case.

Ok, i will trie create a case, thanks for all

Hi @ricardofpt 

when you have the solution can you post it ?
thanks

Tests :

I uninstalled, installed, replaced the BD, the problem remained;
I only managed to install it again and configure everything again.

Now after the backup an error appears:
Failed to convert the check point to the reference point
Processing finished with warnings at 09/27/2023 18:03:31

Just a question, did you happen to modify, or delete a service account that Veeam uses?

Hello @Scott , no, the truth is that I hadn't gone to the options for a long time, and I had to go there because I needed to change a notification email and that's when I saw the error. I think that at the beginning it was advisable to put a password in the options but I had version 11, then I upgraded to 12, in this version I don't see that option, but I could also be confusing.

I feel like this is a support case as well, and I’m really curious to see what the resolution is going to be.  Very odd error.  Seems like a permissions issue to me, but I’m not sure what.

hello, have you found a solution to your problem because I encounter the same problem on Veeam 12 backup and replication Enterprise . Thx

Hi @ricardofpt -

I just wanted to follow back here on your Console > General Options issue. Did you try to install & use the Console on a different computer? I have seen that work. There is probably an account in the Console on the server/computer you’re attempting to go into the Options with no longer accessible (my guess), and thus the error. I have seen this behavior before. If you can go into the Options from another computer, I would verify all User & Roles accounts, as well as Credentials accounts are valid.
