BUTIL -CREATE failing
Hi

I'm trying to reload a table with data from a recover. I run:

BUTIL -RECOVER to unload the data

then

BUTIL -CREATE to recreate the table, but this step fails. There is nothing in my command prompt window to indicate what the problem may be, but the table still contains the same data. Any suggestions how I might go about investigating?

Thanks in advance

Andy

Hi

There is no error reported. All that I get is:
Btrieve Maintenance Utility 8.60.192.030
Copyright (C) Pervasive Software Inc. 2004

and nothing more.

My command line is:

BUTIL -CREATE P:\Itron\Mvrs70\System\CYCLES.VRS P:\Itron\Mvrs70\System\CYCLES.DSC >> P:\Itron\Mvrs70\Work\BCYC2.LOG

The DSC file exists.

Andy

P.S I am a Pervasive newbie

What's in the file "P:\Itron\Mvrs70\Work\BCYC2.LOG"?
WHat happens if you issue the command like:
BUTIL -CREATE P:\Itron\Mvrs70\System\CYCLES.VRS P:\Itron\Mvrs70\System\CYCLES.DSC

Hi

P:\Itron\Mvrs70\Work\BCYC2.LOG contains

i.e. an entry for each time a ran it. If I run without the log file, I just get the same echoed to the command window.

Thanks

Does the file "P:\Itron\Mvrs70\System\CYCLES.VRS" exist? If so, rename it and rerun the BUTIL command.

Hi

It does exist. The strange thing is that I was doing this on several database files and it only failed on this one. I followed the same procedure for each i.e.:

recover
create
load

As soon as I get a chance, I will try to delete the VRS file and try again. I'm wondering if there is some locking going on? How could I confirm this?

Thanks again

Andy
