I saw the same error message but that's because I was using
SourceJammer incorrectly.  When this happened I had
created a new entry in my client archive list
('Connection->Maintain Archive List') but I had not
actually created the archive ('Tools->Make New Archive').

I was using a Windows client and Linux server but the message
was essentially the same.
