VeeamON 2024 - Use Code "COMMUNITY10" for 10% Off!
EUREKA… IT WORKS!!!I’m finally able to resume using Veeam Agent for Windows on my PC.It turns out that it was the swapping of my NvME drive from 250 GB to 1 TB that messed things up (Samsung 980 PCIe 3.0 NVMe M.2 SSD, 1 TB) . Thanks to Andreas aka equilax for figuring this out
Today I got a response from another user on the Veeam R&D Forum that seems like a solution. I’ll try this tonight and report back on Monday. His drive is the same as mine (Samsung 980 PCIe 3.0 NVMe M.2 SSD, 1 TB) equilaxNovicePosts: 3Liked: neverJoined: Dec 16, 2021 3:20 pmLocation: GermanyContact:Contact equilax Re: Can't install Veeam Agent for Windows 5.0.1 on Windows 11Post by equilax » Dec 16, 2021 4:19 pmUnfortunately i could not edit my previous post. I have found a workaround.In fact, the physical sector size seems to be larger:Code: Select allfsutil fsinfo sectorinfo c:Logische Bytes pro Sektor: 512Physische Bytes pro Sektor für Unteilbarkeit: 32768Physische Bytes pro Sektor für Leistung: 32768Effekt. phys. Bytes/Sektor für Unteilbark. in Dateisystem:4096There seems to be a problem with SQL Express on Windows 11 that the physical sector size is returned, which prevents the DB from starting.https://dba.stackexchan
I tried installing VAW 5.0.1.4584 multiple times and at the end it tries to start the service for a long time then fails. There is an option to retry which fails. I removed all the Microsoft SQL Server components, rebooted then tried installing VAW with no luck. When I found the trick to install SQL Express I did so using a VHDX as the instance drive and was able to complete the SQL installation on the first attempt. Then I tried to install VAW with no luck so I removed VAW (again) and installed another endpoint backup software. All of this was done on one Windows 11 laptop which was previously a Windows 10 running VAW 5.xI’ll just tried it on a clean Win 11 and the installation went through fine…Let me check if the logs were left behind on the other PC to see if there are any clues.
Posted to R&D… Thanks
