Failed to initialize local data store: Invalid class string
SQL Backup Professional v5.0 and v5.1 just won't play nice with me. Okay. I have a Windows 2003 Server with Service Pack 2 and a proper installation of the .NET 2.0 Framework. I have successfully installed SQL Backup Professional v5.1. I have successfully launched the application. I can't get a connection to the server due to the following error:
Failed to initialize local data store: Invalid class string
I've done a search for this and come back with nothing. Can someone please help?

EXEC master..sqlbackup '-sql "BACKUP DATABASE model TO DISK = [<AUTO>]"'

Warning 402: Failed to open local data store: Invalid class string
The backup would have still succeeded, but information regarding the backup would not have been stored in SQL Backups' local database.
Could you pls confirm that the test backup succeeded without any warnings or errors? Thanks.

We are using SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition with SP4 on Windows Server 2003 with SP2. We are not using SQL Server Compact Edition. I did not receive any warning or error message during the test backup.
When you register a server in the version 5 GUI, it checks if the SQL Backup extended stored procedure are installed. If so, then then calls the sqbdata extended stored procedure to retrieve data from the 'local data store'. I am assuming that it is at this point that the error message you mentioned should have been raised, if the Compact files have not been property copied/registered.
Perhaps I am making the wrong assumptions about your scenario. Could you provide a screenshot of the error that is happenning in the SQL Backup GUI? You can send it to me via email. Thanks.
