Unable to Clone. Kernel panic - not syncing
Hello,
Upgraded from ATIH 2011 to 2012 and now am not able to clone. Am receiving a kernel panic- not syncing message (see attachment for screen shot of full text). Mind you everything worked fine with 2011.
I initially upgraded from 2011 to 2012 and eventually did a clean install of 2012 and issue still exists.
Anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Dan

No I'm not using the recovery CD. It worked fine before and the only difference is the installation of 2012.

Danohall,
I take it this is happening when the Windows version reboots into Linux to complete the clone? If this is so, you need to try Pat L's suggestion as this does indeed pint to a Linux drive problem.
Expect the CD version to have the same problem, if it does, there are some things that can be tried.
Is your system set up to use AHCI?
Are you using a RAID system?
What build of 2012 are you using?

Hello all,
Thank you for your posts and thank you very much for your help Pat and Colin.
Dan, let me provide you with additional assistance please. In addition to Pat's and Colin's suggestions, could you collect this report from Acronis bootable media, you can do it this way - Generating Acronis System Report from Acronis Bootable Media without Booting into GUI. This report will give us more information so that we can help you with this issue.
Please let me know if you have additional questions.
Thank you.

Colin,
Yes the system is set to AHCI. I'm trying to clone from my SSD to an external HD. Current version is build 6131 and no Raid. Anton, I'll take a look at what you're suggesting but I'm heading out for Thanksgiving shortly. Will do that when I get back.
As I noted earlier it was working fine under 2011 but after installing 2012 this issue appeared.
Thanks again.

Hello Danohall,
Thank you very much for the update.
The reason this was working in ATIH 2011 was because our software operated a little bit different. When cloning from Windows, after the reboot the program went into Windows native mode to complete the cloning operation. In ATIH 2012 the program architecture was changed and after the reboot our software goes into Linux mode. For some reason the bootable Linux component are corrupted that is why you get the kernel panic error message.
As a temporary workaround would it be possible for you to use the bootable media for now and contact our Support team with the system report so that we can investigate this problem.
Looking forward to your reply and if you have additional questions please let me know.
Thank you.

Thank You for the reply Anton. Are you an Acronis support team member? If not, doesn't anyone from Acronis support look at these forums? I'm surprised that Acronis would put out a product like this that really isn't ready for prime time.
Sure I could use the bootable media, but why should I have to? Maybe this version should have been named Acronis 2000 since it seems to have taken a giant step backward in its functionality.

Hello Danohall,
Thank you for replying.
I am a member of Acronis support team, but occasionally some issues cannot be investigated via the forum, that is why we recommend to get in touch with our Support team for proper troubleshooting. In addition, sometimes getting help from our Customer support via chat is quicker than in the forum because our forum is more of a community than a support channel.
I would like to thank you for your feedback and I will forward it to our Customer Listening System.
Let me know if you have additional questions please.
Thank you.

One week since I submitted a support case and no response yet.
I went back to 2011 and it's back to working. How can I get a refund on this?

Same story, Same problem. I purchased this software and the one thing that the trial dosnt have in it is the clone disk. That is the one thing that does not work ! I see that this issue has been around for a few monthes now and has not been addressed. Is there a fix in the works and not a work around, if not, a way to get a refund.

Martin,
What build are you using and are you attempting to start the clone from Widnows or direct from the recovery CD?
What brand/model PC do you have?
Where is the new drive situated, in the PC, external caddy etc?
Have you either tried re-installing TIH incase part of it was corrupted or downlaoded the ISO version fo the recovery CD and used that?

The most current version from the site, Purchased it and it auto updates,says latest version. Starting in windows. ssd's are both in the computer, ports 5 and 6. Computer is a windows 7 ultimate 64 bit, I7-960. trying to clone small OS ssd to new bigger ssd. Same as above problem. Tried re-downloading from non trial version uninstall, reboot , re-install.etc... The reason i purchased this was because it said you didnt need to make iso and could do it from windows. Is there a link for the old version 11 ? with the windows based reboot and not linux ? untill this is fixed ? i could have used a free alternative but purchased this for its ease of use.
I also sat waiting for 1 hour on the live chat. Very disapointing.

Glad to see nothing has changed and the problem is still not fixed. Went back to 2011 and everything has worked fine. Figured I'd try the latest version of 2012 to see if issue has been solved.
Nope.
Had requested a refund in separate email to customer support. Email was never answered. Figure if they just ignore you, then let your refund window expire then they win. They sell you a buggy product, don't support and still get your money. Capitalism at its best.

Hello everyone,
Thank you for posting and thank you for your help Colin and Grover.
Martin, I am very sorry to hear to hear about these issues. I checked your account and it is possible that you used a different e-mail to contact our chat. Could you get back to me with any details about this, or if you have a case number.
Danohall, thank you very much for your feedback.
I am very sorry for the situation and I have contacted our Management team about the situation.
We are very sorry if this issue is still present in the latest build. Unfortunately, due to complexities of hardware/software configurations it is difficult to resolve the issue if the problem has not been submitted to our Support team with the appropriate diagnostic information.
Please let me know if you have additional questions.
Thank you.

Anton,
You say "it is difficult to resolve the issue if the problem has not been submitted to our Support team with the appropriate diagnostic information". I gave a screen shot of the issue on my first post. I the provided the system report you asked for. I also contacted system support and it took them weeks to respond and was some of the worst email support I have ever received. The word "support" is pushing it.
You yourself said "The reason this was working in ATIH 2011 was because our software operated a little bit different. When cloning from Windows, after the reboot the program went into Windows native mode to complete the cloning operation. In ATIH 2012 the program architecture was changed and after the reboot our software goes into Linux mode. For some reason the bootable Linux component are corrupted that is why you get the kernel panic error message:
That was on 11-28. It is now March and Acronis still does not work as advertised.
Like I also said, when you ask for a refund and the email was NEVER answered, let alone within the 30 days of purchase, how exactly is this issue supposed to be resolved, either with a refund or with Acronis actually putting out a product that is fully functional?

Hello Danohall,
Thank you for the update.
We are very sorry for not responding to your refund request, I sent the case for a review to our Management team so that we can avoid such situations in the future.
Unfortunately, since you own a boxed version we will not be able to refund it, please contact your vendor. However, we decided to make it right for you and assist you with resolving this problem.
I would like to contact you via a private message to arrange the details.
Thank you.
