mikebiacsi Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Hi guys and girls, I have inherited a server 2012r2 host with a 2012r2 DC. I am trying to install the Windows Server Backup role using the add roles and features wizard, but keep getting errors (see attached capture). When looking through the server manager dashboard I found the following 3 errors which I think are linked. Faulting application name: tasklist.exe, version: 6.3.9600.17415, time stamp: 0x545042cc Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 6.3.9600.17736, time stamp: 0x550f42c2 Exception code: 0xc0000142 Fault offset: 0x0009d4f2 Faulting process id: 0x2014 Faulting application start time: 0x01d17626609f5ad4 Faulting application path: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\tasklist.exe Faulting module path: KERNELBASE.dll Report Id: 9e4f9edc-e219-11e5-80d0-00155d078e00 Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID: Faulting application name: tasklist.exe, version: 6.3.9600.17415, time stamp: 0x545042cc Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 6.3.9600.17736, time stamp: 0x550f42c2 Exception code: 0xc0000142 Fault offset: 0x0009d4f2 Faulting process id: 0x255c Faulting application start time: 0x01d1762660b9e79e Faulting application path: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\tasklist.exe Faulting module path: KERNELBASE.dll Report Id: 9e68cc24-e219-11e5-80d0-00155d078e00 Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID: Faulting application name: tasklist.exe, version: 6.3.9600.17415, time stamp: 0x545042cc Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 6.3.9600.17736, time stamp: 0x550f42c2 Exception code: 0xc0000142 Fault offset: 0x0009d4f2 Faulting process id: 0x3498 Faulting application start time: 0x01d1762660dab5fd Faulting application path: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\tasklist.exe Faulting module path: KERNELBASE.dll Report Id: 9e89c183-e219-11e5-80d0-00155d078e00 Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID: I have also tried installing Windows Server Backup using powershell but receive the following error: Add-WindowsFeature Windows-Server-Backup Add-WindowsFeature : Server execution failed At line:1 char:1 + Add-WindowsFeature Windows-Server-Backup + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : DeviceError: (Microsoft.Manag...rDetailsHandle):CimException) [Install-WindowsFeature], Exception + FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnSupportedTargetDevice,Microsoft.Windows.ServerManager.Commands.AddWindowsFeatureComman d I'm not really sure where to start looking to solve this, would anyone be able to help??

sc302 Veteran Posted March 4, 2016 Veteran Share Posted March 4, 2016 make sure your server is fully updated and not just the following: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2979104 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebiacsi Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 Apologies for the late reply. Seems the previous company in charge of this server didn't believe in updating servers. After installing a butt load of updates I was finally able to install windows server backup. Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
