Hello Karen, Albert, Tom, Buddy and anyone else that responded to my request for help.
Sorry it has taken so long to say “thank you”. I have half a dozen excuses but I’m sure nobody want to hear them. I do want to share how the issue was resolved because having repair many databases in the past, I had never ran into this problem before. I tried your suggestions to no avail. The weird thing was that although I could not connect, using AUTOCHK dbName or RSCope showed no errors! The clue was in the “current RBASE build is incompatible” message. We all know that the db configuration is found in RX1 and that RX1 does not change during normal operator use. I replace RX1 from a backup copy, SYNC the database and now I was able to CONNECT. Now connected to the database running AUTOCHK displayed nine errors. In addition when using RSCope the error showed and I was able to fix them. The defective RX1 caused a very strange condition. Again, thank you very much for your help.

Weird errors such as this are often corrected by: CONNECT backups OUTPUT bakcupdb.all UNLOAD ALL OUTPUT SCREEN Create a new folder Copy backupdb.ALL and LOB into it Start RBGXE Navigate to the new folder RUN backups.ALL to recreate the database.

I am using: R:BASE X, Enterprise, U.S. Version, Build: 10.0.4.10912 This one really have me stumped! This database have been in service for several years but today when I try to connect to it from the R>, I received the message in a dialog box: “The current R:BASE build is incompatible with the database files”, and I cannot connect. With RScope the database checked Ok. If I do an AUTOCHK dbName, from the R> it returns no errors. I take the backup from yesterday, drop in the working folder and it works just fine. Since the backup works find in the same environment I can assume that the issue is within the database but with AUTOCHK and RSCOPE showing no errors I am at a lost. Here are a few other test performed that I am hoping may shed a clue to help me. ACTION RETURNS CONNECT dbName The current R:BASE build is incompatible with the database files. CONNECT dbName WRITE The current R:BASE build is incompatible with the database files. CONNECT dbName READ -ERROR- Unable to connect database ( 7) CONNECT Gives me the file box to choose the db on the folder and then the incompatible message. Any help will be greatly appreciated. † -- For group guidelines, visit <http://www.rbase.com/support/usersgroup_guidelines.php> http://www.rbase.com/support/usersgroup_guidelines.php --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBASE-L" group.
