Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows 32 Intel
Windows NT 32 Intel/Windows 2000
SYMPTOM(s):
Errors during procopy.
** Cannot find or open file <file-name>, errno = <number>. (43)
** Cannot find or open file <file-name>, errno = 3. (43)
bkOpenControlArea error. (7104)
Target database is on a network drive.
Structure file for the target database already exists.
CAUSE:
The path for the database extents in the structure file is relative to the target machine. For example:
d D:\myDir\myDb.d1
b D:\myDir\myDb.b1
The machine where the source database sits sees the target directory with another name, due to the network mapping. For example, directory D:\myDir on the target machine may be mapped as I:\ on the source machine.
When procopy is run, Progress has no way of knowing that the D:\myDir in the structure file should map to I:\, therefore procopy tries to create the extents in D:\myDir on the local machine, and it fails.
FIX:
Take a backup with probkup on the source machine and restore it with prorest on the target machine.
