Backup - "The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized."

[Joakim Westin]

I'm setting up a new production environment for a customer. We have RavenDB in TEST, STAGE and PROD environments.

All machines are members of the same Active Directory.

If I log in locally as administrator (ur Run As as local admin) the backup works fine using the Raven.Backup.exe, such as this:

 .\Raven.Backup.exe -url http://localhost:8080/ -dest=D:\Backup

But if  I log in with a diferent account, even one that is administrator locally it does not work:

\Raven.Backup.exe -url http://localhost:8080/ -dest=D:\Backup

Sending json { "BackupLocation": "D:\\Backup" } to http://localhost:8080

The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.

The Raven config files looks as follows:

<add key="Raven/AnonymousAccess" value="None"/>

<add key="Raven/DataDir" value="~\..\..\Data"/>

<add key="Raven/Authorization/Windows/RequiredGroups" value="PRODSE\Domain Admins"/>

<add key="Raven/Authorization/Windows/RequiredUsers" value="mgmt\xxx"/>

As you can see I have also tried to explicitly allow my user account.

Can anoyone tell me how to fix this?

Or if not fix, what is the recommended way to backup RavenDB in a Windows production environment?

You probably need to Run As Admin there as well
