#576 NullPointerException at checkHach at backup verification stage

[ddarek]

Running beauty Areca 7.4.9 on 32 bit Windows XP I met this error which (if I remember correctly) caused "invalid restore" and thus cancellation of the backup. I could reproduce this every time. IIRC this was incremental backup (delta or standard mode). Unfortunately I'm away from this machine so I will not be able to supply more details in few weeks. If some information is required, let me know, I will do my best if I get back to the machine.

Maybe it's the problem of the previous full backup made by previous version of Areca so full backup with 7.4.9 Areca will help?

Hi

I've added additional checks to avoid such errors. It will be available in the next version.

Best regards
