Error message

*. stm and *. edb don't match for Exchange database

Cause

For MS Exhange the stm and edb-files are backupped in pairs
This message means that during the last backup something went wrong with either file and now they don't match up.

Solution

To solve this error run a Full MS Exchange server Backup.
- In the main menu click on "Backup"
- Expand Options (bottom right)
- Backup type: Full/Database, In-File Delta: Full
- Click OK to start the backup

The backup will still throw the error as it notices during the start of the backup that's it's missing the edb/stm-file.
The next incremental/differential backup of the database should no longer give the error.
