On Windows Server 2003, we back up messages in Windows message queue once a week using the following batch commands (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc773213%28v=ws.10%29.aspx):
cd "C:\backup"
echo y | del *.* /Q /s
echo y | mqbkup -b C:\backup
We have a C# ASP.NET 3.5 web application running on the same machine that interacts with this message queue.
After the backup runs, when we try to access the message queue from the web application, the web app. throws the following error (it goes away if the app is rebuilt, as expected). How do I fix it? Please help. Thanks.
