Hello,

The actual error that was causing the backup not to be finalised was this:

> 2019-02-07 20:35:15 +0300: burp[31147] could not make signature from: /var/spool/burp/data/iRDPsrv/finishing/data.tmp/t/c:/Общая/Бухгалтерия/1C базы/БиТиКьюКонстракшн/1Cv8.1CD

It's trying to make a reverse delta between new backup 150 and previous backup
149 for file:

c:/Общая/Бухгалтерия/1C базы/БиТиКьюКонстракшн/1Cv8.1CD

I don't know why it failed several times, and then apparently succeeded.

Maybe it temporarily ran out of disk space or memory, or you had a bad inode.

I think it is the librsync library that has reported the error, but burp has
not told us exactly what librsync said, which is an omission that I will fix.

You can try verifying the entire backup with 'burp.exe -a v -b 150'.

Or you can try verifying the specific file involved:
'burp.exe -a v -b 150 -r 1Cv8.1CD'.
