Subject gbak error
Author frische_brise2003
Hi all,

I want to restore a database from a backup I've
made using gbak on another machine.
The strange thing is, on some machines it works,
on other machines it doesn't.
If the backup doesn't work I get the following error:

gbak: opened file c:\jumu\fb\mcm3.1.fbk
gbak: transportable backup -- data in XDR format
gbak: backup file is compressed
gbak: ERROR: unavailable database
gbak: ERROR: failed to create database c:\firebird\databases\x.fdb
gbak: Exiting before completion due to errors

My backup command:
gbak -b -user sysdba -pas masterkey -v -y C:\x\backup.log c:
\firebird\databases\mcm3.1.fdb C:\y\mcm3.1.fbk

My restore command:
gbak -r -user sysdba -pas masterkey -v -y c:\x\restore.log C:
\temp\mcm3.1.fbk c:\firebird\databases\mcm3.1.fdb

On each machine, FB 1.5 is running and works fine...

Any ideas?

Regards

Jürgen
