Using BackupExec 11d from a proxy server (Windows 2003SvrStd).
Trying to run browse-start.bat VMWareTest1 ohio.nadadventist.org and I get the following error message:

When I run pre-backup.bat VMwareTest1 Ohio.nadadventist.org-FullVM and look at my d:
mnt folder (I changed it from c:
mnt) I see the folder being created, but only for an instant. It disappears and the job ends.
Help!
Start here -
Make sure you are running the latest version of the VCB framework AND the BackupExec enabler.
Make sure fabric is zoned properly
Make sure LUN IDs match. ESX servers LUN 1 = Proxy server LUN 1, Etc.
Check config.js and make sure you have a valid VC user with the proper password. Make sure syntax is correct:
USERNAME = "domain
user"; DOUBLE BACKSLASH IS IMPORTANT
