Thanks Scott, that seemed to do the trick. I was at least able to export it. 
Now to see if I can import it and sync the audio files. I'm trying to get my 
head around mounting a second hard drive to /var/snd. The files have been 
copied over from the old system but they are on an NTFS drive in a folder, not 
on the root of the drive. I need a bit of linux help.

Thanks for what you've helped with.

Subject: Re: [RDD] Backup issues

i have run into this once or twice and it was usually because of minor problems 
with the db. after running msqlcheck and fixing the issues the database would 
back up. Give that a try.

I am migrating our current system, running 2.19.2, and porting it to v3. I've 
backed up the /var/snd files and went into the gui RDAdmin, entered name and pw 
and accessed the menu board. When I click Backup Database, enter a save 
location, /tmp or Desktop, anywhere, It returns with Backup Error Unable to 
create backup.

I've looked through old posts and have tried things, like accessing the 
database through mysql commandline. I've used the login info that i listed in 
the rd.conf file but it won't even let me in there. The system runs just fine 
so I know its on my end. I could use some guidance.

Thanks,
Don
