Well I installed the Win32 package as suggested, but am still getting the same error.
I am running activte state python v2.5 and installed the corresponding win32 libraries from source forge. Noticed that pythonpath was missing so I added it as a system env variable:
PYTHONPATH=C:\PYTHON25;C:\PYTHON25\DLLS;C:\PYTHON25\LIB;C:\PYTHON25\LIB\LIB-TK
Any other ideas?

I had a job setup to periodically backup a directory - everything worked fine for at least two weeks, but then it started having problems (see below).
The rdiff-backup binary seems to work with other directories on the same system, but fails on the corporate records directory. This may be a bug related to either the number of files in this directory or perhaps the size of certain files.
The bug is due to a required dependency that was not mentioned on the webpage or in the readme. Sorry!
The bug was triggered because the previous run of rdiff-backup was possibly interrupted prematurely. Before resuming, rdiff-backup was trying to make sure that the previous backup session had closed and was not still running.
ImportError: No module named win32api
You need to install the Python for Windows extensions:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/
or direct download page:
http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=78018
I will add a note about installing those extensions to the website.
thanks,
