What is this file? (

Thread needs solution

I get an error that comes up when using bootable media. The error is something like, "no such file or directory found"

The file is: libpcap.so and it's location, according to the message is \bin\ipwatchd which seems to have no relevance on a Windows 7 machine.

What is this? Does everyone see this on a Windows machine when they use Acronis Loader?

I see this problem has been around for a couple of years. http://forum.acronis.com/forum/12868#comment-95393

Someone said it had been removed but it's still showing up with the most recent update. And I don't have a Dell

Michael,

Can you use your recovery media normally?

I can now. I need to find my other thread. I managed to get backup working. Still don't have clone working. But as was pointed out, backup is as good as clone. Since my first problem was my error, the clone problem might be mine as well. ;)

Actually, it's much better.

I think that's likely, judging from our other discussion. I'm glad you got it working.

This message also appears when booting my XP Pro machine. I consider this information as "informational" and not as an error. As the loader is loading a generic program on many many different brands and models, it load program goes into a bunch of checks to see what is on that particular machine and in this instance, the machine being loaded did not have this file. If the missing file was really an error of importance, I believe it would have called more attention to the error and as it did not, I believe the information was not of importance and informational in nature. Most check we do not see but this one happened to be visible.

Also note, when creating routine backups, if you have an XP machine, you may get error messages in the log file about the "library not found". This is also another message which can be ignored and hope that the next build will cause that message not to appear.

I'm glad your restore issue resolved. Some machines are more finicky than others so sometimes what works for one may not always work for another. My guide tries to prescribe steps which will work as often as possible for the most people--but there can be exceptions.

Your guide was very well done. It's kind of rare to find such detail in a guide.

One place I made a mistake was trying to take it too literally, in some places and not literally enough in others. And YOU DO make it clear that one must make sure THEIR details are used. For instance. The first partition you showed being installed was a Primary but not active. The second was Primary and active. Mine was just the opposite. I followed the directions literally and made the wrong partition active and got a BOOTMGR not found error.

I went back and reviewed my Disk Management Printout and noticed that my "Reserved" and hidden partition was active. I made that change and got another error, when I forgot to check the "Recover Disc Signature". Once I got everything, per MY machine, it worked perfectly.

In fact, it worked so perfectly, I took my 128G SSD back to Frys and bought a 2nd 256G SSD and just backed up the system to it. Now I have 2 SSD with the OS on it. A bit of an overkill but now I can experiment to my hearts content, knowing that I can always get back to square 1. ;)

Thanks,

Thank you Michael. Your comments help to make the effort making the guides to be worthwhile. Each computer maker has their own setup so any guide can only be that--a guide. User success is dependent upon matching their setup. Thank you for making that point.
