From server.log

@James

Could you please share the more details which version of WFA is used and share the details steps to reproduce the issue to debug this issue.

Note:

I have tried to reproduce this issue using WFA 4.0GA (windows).

I am able to download the backup of 4.0

below is the environment details:

WFA version: WFA-x64-V4.0.0.0.0-B3768948.exe

Installed WFA in windows 7

Best Regards,

Shiva

@James,

Please check whether a new backup file is created under <WFA installation Dir>\jboss\standalone\deployments\download.war when you clicks on backup.

If the backup file is not getting created then please share all these logs. i.e. server.log, wfa.log and backup_restore.log.

Best Regards,

Shiva

@sivakumar_sekar,

The backups are there. I'll just move one to a different location and use for the restore. I've pasted the web.xml located in the C:\Program Files\NetApp\WFA\jboss\standalone\deployments\download.war\WEB-INF directory since this is where the error is most likely from. WFA version is 4.0.0.0.0 on Windows Server 2012 R2 DC. I'll be upgrading to 4.1 very shortly and will check if this error corrects itself after the upgrade.
