I have a stored procedure, which performs a database backup for a specific database.
The problem is, it does work on one server and does not work on another server (the servers are on different machines). The backup drive is a local drive of the server.
On the second server I get the exception “BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally.“

In the log file there are the following informations:

...     Error: 18204, Severity: 16, State: 1.
...     BackupDiskFile::CreateMedia: Backup device 'D:\XXX.bak' failed to create. Operating system error 5(failed to retrieve text for this error. Reason: 15105).
...     Error: 3041, Severity: 16, State: 1.
...     BACKUP failed to complete the command BACKUP DATABASE XXX. Check the backup application log for detailed messages.

What could be the reason for that and where can I find the mentioned backup application log?

    Try to compile the SP again with “with execute as caller” and run it again.
