I am having problems opening database on a notebook that I have copied from a machine that is running as an RBG 6.1a server. The notebook is not connected to the server, it just has a copy of the database files from two different databases. The error message I get when trying to connect to the databases is "The database is currently unavailable--it is probably open with MULTI set OFF."

- Preferences show the correct path to SERVER6.RBG and to RBASE.CFG. - Settings show Multi-User ON and the RBASE.CFG reflects this setting. - RBADMIN shows one user active. I've tried deactivating this user and removing it; I've changed the user name in the RBASE.CFG file. RBADMIN reports the current state, but nothing fixes the problem. - A 5-user LAN Pack bump was installed. - RScope reports "This database is currently open by another user. Do you wish to open the database in multi-user mode" Replying yes gens a RScope error, "e which makes it unavailable to you. Press any key..." The RBG 6.1a client was not running at the time the message was displayed. Error code 7.
- The notebook is not attached to a network.
- I've restarted the client, RScope and RBADMIN many times. - There is only one instance each of the RBASE.CFG and RBASE.INI files.

I can open CONCOMP on the notebook. On a different workstation connected to my server I can open the two databases that won't open on the notebook.

Is there an archive for this list?


Brian,

Check the file properties of all four files (.RB1-.RB4) and make sure that they are NOT +R "Read Only".
This is a typical case when files are copied from a CD.

Hope that helps!

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
