Hi!

This particular error is given when there is an inconsistency in the backup chain, i.e. some backup files (.tib) have corrupt names or there is one of the files missing. It's hard to say exactly what caused the problem without having a list of files present in the backup location when you performed the backup which failed. Basing on the list of files I could make a more appropriate conclusion.

Thank you.
