I am running Orange HRM in VirtualBox. In the past I have no problem with tklbam, backup is o.k. But now when I want to use tklbam backup, it does not work and I get the following message:

What can I do to solve this problem? I would appreciate it if anyone can help. Thanks!

Try either:

  1. adding the --disable-resume option to the tklbam-backup command.

  2. Removing /TKLBAM:

    rm -rf /TKLBAM

Both should work. I've seen this happen before and I think I know what is going on. In any case I will add some robustness to the code in the next update to prevent this from happening. I opened a bug report:
