| I went to check on my ayanova 3 backups today and noticed that something was wrong. I verified the scheduled task was running then attempted to run the network firebird backup batch file from a command prompt so i could view the results. The batch file succesfuly runs all the way down and loads the gbak utility but when gbak attempts to back up the database it returns a "unavailable database" error. I have checked all of the locations in my batch file and they are all correct. Any ideas? Here is a copy of the code from the batch file just to make sure there are no errors. REM BEGIN SCRIPT REM *** Create the backups folder if it doesn't already exist: IF NOT EXIST E:\AyaNova3\backups MKDIR E:\AyaNova3\backups REM *** Delete the oldest copy and shuffle each existing copy to next position REM *** This will produce a harmless error at first until all 10 copies exist REM *** error will not affect backup del "E:\AyaNova3\backups\AYANOVA10.FBK" ren "E:\AyaNova3\backups\AYANOVA09.FBK" AYANOVA10.FBK ren "E:\AyaNova3\backups\AYANOVA08.FBK" AYANOVA09.FBK ren "E:\AyaNova3\backups\AYANOVA07.FBK" AYANOVA08.FBK ren "E:\AyaNova3\backups\AYANOVA06.FBK" AYANOVA07.FBK ren "E:\AyaNova3\backups\AYANOVA05.FBK" AYANOVA06.FBK ren "E:\AyaNova3\backups\AYANOVA04.FBK" AYANOVA05.FBK ren "E:\AyaNova3\backups\AYANOVA03.FBK" AYANOVA04.FBK ren "E:\AyaNova3\backups\AYANOVA02.FBK" AYANOVA03.FBK ren "E:\AyaNova3\backups\AYANOVA.FBK" AYANOVA02.FBK REM *** Perform a Firebird backup with verification "C:\Program Files\Firebird_1_5\bin\gbak" -b -v -t -user SYSDBA -password "XXXXXXX" E:\AyaNova3\AYANOVA.FDB E:\AyaNova3\backups\AYANOVA.FBK REM END SCRIPT And here is the results of running the batch file from the command prompt.
