SYMPTOM(s):

Buffer stack overflow message - no error number - on 2 Gig database backup

Buffer stack overflow message on 2 GB database backup after sucessful completion

Full backup successfully completed. (1364)

Error: buffer stack overflow

No error number with buffer stack overflow message.

The last backup was not completed successfully. (1553)

** Save file named core for analysis by Progress Software Corporation. (439)

Probkup fails on database bigger than > 2GB

FACT(s) (Environment):

All Supported Operating Systems
OpenEdge Category: Database
Progress 9.1B

CAUSE:

Bug# OE00068173

CAUSE:

Database logs indicate backup was successful but when the database is restarted or ai enabled, Progress reports last backup was not sucessful.

The calculated size of the backup/restore was incorrect causing an overflow when attempting to format a buffer for message display purposes. This corrupts the pointer to the master block causing garbage to be written to the backup file in place of a real master block.

FIX:

Upgrade to the latest commercial release. This issue was addressed in Progress 9.1B patches and fixed in Progress 9.1D
