The reaction by Intego is outrageous. The problem clearly is caused by VirusBarrier X5 after the 10.5.3 update. If you do in Terminal:
Code:
cd /Library/Intego/virusbarrier.bundle/Contents/Resources
ls -le
You will find that the four files at the top of the list are the ones that cause the problem (trimmed the rest of the list):
Code:
ls: \001: Operation not permitted
ls: \002: Operation not permitted
ls: \003: Operation not permitted
ls: \004: Operation not permitted
total 3256
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 132 18 jul 00:01 ActivatedArchives.dat
The solution suggested by Intego does not work.
However, disabling Real-Time Scanner before you start the backup will enable SuperDuper! to complete the backup normally.
Interestingly, when you look for the four files in virusbarrier.bundle while Real-Time Scanner is disabled, the files appear to be changed:
Code:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 18 jul 00:01 ?
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 18 jul 00:01 ?
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 18 jul 00:01 ?
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 18 jul 00:01 ?
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 132 18 jul 00:01 ActivatedArchives.dat
And after re-enabling Real-Time Scanner the list looks again as before.
Now, doesn't this point to VirusBarrier as the culprit ?
