Describe BackupAssistServicesFailToStart here.to:
!BackupAssist services fail to start
When a scheduled backup runs or you attempt to kick off a test/specific backup, the BackupAssist service fails to start and consequently your backup fails.
!! Cause
*The Windows Global Temp Variable - if the Global TEMP variable in Windows is set to a nonexistent drive it can cause the BackupAssist service to fail to start.
*Windows 2003 SP1 - On certain Windows 2003 servers, after SP1 is applied, the BackupAssist service fails to start.
!! Resolution
*Set the Windows Global TEMP variable to a drive that exists - ie C:\WINDOWS\TEMP. To do this '''Right-click My Computer > Properties > Advanced > Environment Variables'''
Thanks goes to Olivier Revenu for this investigation and fix.
*Reinstall the BackupAssist and BackupAssist monitor services. To do this, conduct the following in a Windows command-line prompt window
#C:\Program Files\BackupAssist\uninstallService.exe
#C:\Program Files\BackupAssist\BAService.exe -setup
#C:\Program Files\BackupAssist\BAMonSvc.exe -setup
#C:\Program Files\BackupAssist\net start wBackupAssist
#C:\Program Files\BackupAssist\net start wBAMon
