Re: Get 4D file(Last backup file) v17.4 returning wrong file path

Just a followup. Tech support has filed a bug for the issue. It's a command that not many people use I'm guessing. I've just started using it to move a 4D Backup to a BackBlaze folder once a week so it can be backed up on the weekend to the cloud. During the week, we just backup the daily journal

Re: Get 4D file(Last backup file) v17.4 returning wrong file path

It turns out 3 out of 4 of my systems have this issue. The last backup path does show up correctly in the backup.xml file in the Preferences folder, but the command still fails. I’ve opened a case with Tech Support and have them a sample database. We’ll see what they find out. Thanks for your

Re: Get 4D file(Last backup file) v17.4 returning wrong file path

Get 4D file(Last backup file) v17.4 returning wrong file path

Hi, In my "On Backup Shutdown" method I wanted to copy the backup file to another disk. When I call "Get 4D file(Last backup file)" I get a file path to a very old backup. I get the same old path every time I do a backup. Am I missing something? Thanks, dave -- David Nasralla Clean Air
