SYMPTOM(s):

Attempted force into a database fails with system error (4524)

SYSTEM ERROR: File <file-name> too small <length>, blocksize <blocksize> extend failed." (4524)

SYSTEM ERROR: File dbname.b3 too small 0, blocksize 16384 extend failed." (4524).

Database crashed earlier with error:

Insufficient disk space to extend the before-image file. (854)

Last ditch effort to gain access to a crashed database.

FACT(s) (Environment):

All Supported Operating Systems
Progress 9.1x
OpenEdge 10.x

FIX:

In order to force into the database when getting SYSTEM ERROR: File <file-name> too small <length>, blocksize <blocksize> extend failed." (4524) referencing a bi file, follow the steps below:

1. Rename the current bi file on disk that is mentioned in the error message.
2. Rename the current dbname.st file
3. Create a current st file by running prostrct list dbname.
4. Run prostrct unlock dbname -extents. (that determines what extents should be present and recreates any that are missing, thus giving us a new bi extent on disk.)
5. Run proutil dbname -C truncate bi -F
6. Start the database
