Trying to get the sharepoint portal server backups to work. When run
get error saying backup did not succeed and to look at the spsbackup
logs. However when I try to view the diagnostic spsbackup log the only
thing that displays is "log cannot be viewed". If I look at the
W3SP.logs I can find the following message:

12/02/04 10:46:28:672 UNK 00000000 000014B4 Fail to load log file with
the following error: System.IO.IOException: The process cannot access
the file "C:\Program Files\SharePoint Portal
Server\Logs\SPS_00005180_SPSBACKUP.LOG" because it is being used by
another process. at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode,
String str) at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode,
FileAccess access, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, Boolean
useAsync, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy) at
System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess
access, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize) at
System.IO.StreamReader..ctor(String path, Encoding encoding, Boolean
detectEncodingFromByteOrderMarks, Int32 bufferSize) at
System.IO.StreamReader..ctor(String path) at
Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.ServerAdmin.DiagnosticLogFilePage.a(String
A_0) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.ServerAdmin.DiagnosticLogFilePage.Page_Load(Object
sender, EventArgs e)

Does anyone have any ideas on what could be causing this. I do see an
XML file that was created in the folder I have to place my backup, but
is also gives little clues. Only error in it is: <BackupStatus>FAILED
- Error encountered during operation</BackupStatus>

I suspect something else is going wrong. What else is happening?
