Wow, that was quick. That problem has been around since at least 3.0.0.

Firebird version 3.0.9 64bits on Debian

When I use gbak with "nohup" in Debian, it seems gbak's output to 
nohup.out is written in chunks,


nohup gbak -b -v -g database database.fbk &

It shows, for instance:

gbak:52 records written
gbak:53 re

And after many seconds or minutes, it writes another chunk to the log.

This behavior appeared in Firebird version 3, it worked as expected in 
Firebird version 2.5.


I never had a problem with this behavior, since it was just a matter 
of waiting for the end of the process, but this week gbak raised an 
error in a stored procedure when restoring a database that was not 
saved to the log file, probably because the restore process was 
interrupted and the log was not flushed.


When the output is to the console, it works as expected.

The end of the process is not the end of output, which is buffered. You should 
probably continue to read from STDOUT or STDERR after the process has finished.
