Brad, Just a few things you can try....ensure that the user you are using is an admin (yea...I know...simple...but ya never know)...and try changing your path to c:/ instead of what it is currently...this is what I used to try this out for you
aradmin.exe -x <server> -portnum <port> -u <user> -p <password> -o "C:/export.log" -e "C:/20080829.def" -F I got the same log as you, but my def file had content. I'm using 7.1 P3 Admin tool...so I would play around with the location of the files to see if that's possibly where the issue is. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of fikebr Sent: Friday, August 29, 2008 8:41 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: aradmin command-line export is producing 0 length files All, Environment: ARS: 7.1.00 Build 200708221849 OS: SunOS 5.10 DB: Sybase 15.0.1 I am using the following syntax to get a daily *.def file export but it is only returning 0 length files.
