This works for me:
gfix.exe -user SYSDBA -password masterkey -m -f -ignore c:\data\yourdb.gdb
gbak.exe -user SYSDBA -password masterkey -b -v -limbo -ignore -garbage
c:\data\yourdb.gdb c:\data\yourdb.bak
ren c:\data\yourdb.gdb c:\data\yourdb_corrupt.gdb
gbak.exe -user SYSDBA -password masterkey
Gary,
gbak.exe -user SYSDBA -password masterkey -c -R -K -BU 1 -P 8192 -v
c:\data\yourdb.bak c:\data\yourdb.gdb
I don't think this is good set of options
-c means create database from backup
-r means replace existing file. This is dangerous option, but if you
specify it, you don't need to
Hi,
One of our clients has a corrupted database (we are getting internal gds
error). Its a Firebird Database version 1.5.6, the files size is almost 7.5GB,
we are unable to recover it with the normal tools, we have run the Repair
procedure in IBFIRST aid and followed the recommended steps
