New error about primary keys
I've seen the dialog that comes up with database with ambiguous primary keys - the one that starts with "This version of 4D provides a more robust log file and you". But I just converted a v13 database to v15 and got a different alert: "Potential issues with primary keys have been found. Please contact your database administrator." With two buttons: Close Database and Continue. I was upgrading from a backup; the index file was new. I ran MSC/Verify on the datafile and it says everything checks out - no errors. But it goes through the test in less than a minute with a 850 MB data file, which doesn't seem right. I searched the Doc center with the first sentence of the alert and generated an http 504 error. Yay me! Anyone know what this means? ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **

the two dialogs are flagging the same problem, only the context is different. > I've seen the dialog that comes up with database with ambiguous primary > keys - the one that starts with "This version of 4D provides a more robust > log file and you". this one pops up when you have access to design mode. > "Potential issues with primary keys have been found.

I am able to make changes to the structure and data after logging in. ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **
Re: New error about primary keys
Lee, I seem to recall something like this when I converted a datafile that had dupes in the PK field. But I don't recall the specific wording on the dlog.
