VSS Fails on InitializeForBackup.
in [Win32 Kernel]

From: David F. on 17 Feb 2010 06:15 Hi, Trying some basic VSS stuff from VS 2008 Studio and it doesn't seem to want to work on this Vista x32 Ultimate machine, yet I can run the backup tool in Vista and says it's creating a volume shadow copy just fine. Here's the basic part of the program: ------------- CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED); IVssBackupComponents *pBackup = NULL; HRESULT result = CreateVssBackupComponents(&pBackup); if (result == S_OK) { result = pBackup->InitializeForBackup(); // ^^^^ This fails } ------------ Looking in the event view as to why it failed it shows two items: Item 1: Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Unexpected error calling routine CoCreateInstance. hr = 0x800401f0. Operation: Initialize For Backup Item 2: Volume Shadow Copy Service information: The COM Server with CLSID {f5078f32-c551-11d3-89b9-0000f81fe221} and name MSXML30 cannot be started. [0x800401f0] Operation: Initialize For Backup ------------ So now I search the internet and a couple things (most have to do with sharepoints use of VSS). One is to manually start the Volume Shadow Copy, COM+ System Application, and the "Distribute Transaction Coordinator". So I do that, but still having problems so stop them like they were before (even when the MS backup seemed to work). Found a MSFT message to do this: Net stop vss Net stop swprv cd C:\windows\system32\ regsvr32 ole32.dll regsvr32 vss_ps.dll Vssvc /Register regsvr32 /i swprv.dll regsvr32 /i eventcls.dll regsvr32 es.dll regsvr32 stdprov.dll regsvr32 vssui.dll regsvr32 msxml.dll regsvr32 msxml3.dll regsvr32 msxml4.dll So I do this (from command prompt started as administrator) and this is what I get: C:\Windows\system32>regsvr32 ole32.dll The module "ole32.dll" was loaded but the call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80070005. C:\Windows\system32>regsvr32 vss_ps.dll DllRegisterServer in vss_ps.dll succeeded. C:\Windows\system32>Vssvc /Register C:\Windows\system32>regsvr32 /i swprv.dll DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in swprv.dll succeeded. C:\Windows\system32>regsvr32 /i eventcls.dll The module "eventcls.dll" was loaded but the call to DllInstall failed with error code 0x8000ffff. C:\Windows\system32>regsvr32 es.dll The module "es.dll" was loaded but the entry-point DllRegisterServer was not found. Make sure that "es.dll" is a valid DLL or OCX file and then try again. C:\Windows\system32>regsvr32 stdprov.dll DllRegisterServer in stdprov.dll succeeded. C:\Windows\system32>regsvr32 vssui.dll The module "vssui.dll" failed to load. Make sure the binary is stored at the specified path or debug it to check for problems with the binary or dependent .DLL files. The specified module could not be found. C:\Windows\system32>regsvr32 msxml.dll The module "msxml.dll" failed to load. Make sure the binary is stored at the specified path or debug it to check for problems with the binary or dependent .DLL files. The specified module could not be found. C:\Windows\system32>regsvr32 msxml3.dll DllRegisterServer in msxml3.dll succeeded. C:\Windows\system32>regsvr32 msxml4.dll DllRegisterServer in msxml4.dll succeeded. So -- Anyone know what the heck is going on?? TIA!!
From: nick on 18 Feb 2010 04:51 Hi Where do you cocreate the MSXML object? The error is saying that you did no CoInitialize the thread that cocreate the msxml object. You code snippet creates vss backup component (CreateVssBackupComponents). It's not related to MSXML.

From: David F. on 18 Feb 2010 09:06 Thanks Nick - that was it - it was in a different thread! Now I wonder if the handle returned by VSS can be used in other threads that don't CoInitialize? I'll find out.. Thanks again! "nick" <nick.guz(a)nospam.com> wrote in message news:elP0y$HsKHA.1352(a)TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > Hi > > Where do you cocreate the MSXML object?
