You've missed the Characterset following fix_fss_metadata



Here's what I used



C:\Program Files\firebird\Firebird_2_5\bin>gbak -r -p 8192 -v -user
SYSDBA -pas

masterkey -FIX_FSS_METADATA WIN1252 -REP
"d:\data\fbdata\fb_itshared.bak21" "d:\

data\fbdata\fb_itshared.fdb"

-fix_fss_metadata in wrong position.

Parameters order:
gbak:Usage:
gbak -b <db set> <backup set> [backup options] [general options]
gbak -c <backup set> <db set> [restore options] [general options]
<db set> = <database> | <db1 size1>...<dbN> (size in db pages)
<backup set> = <backup> | <bk1 size1>...<bkN> (size in bytes =
n[K|M|G])
-recreate overwrite and -replace can be used instead of -c

Ciao.
Mimmo.
