Hi, as promised recently I have created a bunch of tracker entries for problems I stumbled upon when trying to restore our 2.5 Database to 3.0.
First of all, gbak wasn't able to restore the backup, failing with gbak: activating and creating deferred index FK_OCR_BAD_WORDS_1 gbak:committing metadata gbak: ERROR:invalid request BLR at offset 10658 gbak: ERROR: BLR syntax error: expected variable identifier at offset 10659, encountered 76 gbak: ERROR: Error while parsing procedure P_SOLLST_SIMPLE_FLG_S's BLR gbak:Exiting before completion due to errors I commented all procedure bodies under 2.5 and was able to get at least all data restored under 3.0. Trying to run a script to recreate the procedures lead to the following issues: CORE-2965 to CORE-3968 that can be reproduced against the employee database. As I believe that gbak's problem with our database will vanish when these issues are fixed, I didn't create an tracker entry for our original problem. hth Frank -- "Fascinating creatures, phoenixes, they can carry immensely heavy loads, their tears have healing powers and they make highly faithful pets." - J.K.
