error modifing sybase configuration file.
We are getting this error when we try to modify the configuration using sp_cpnfigure:
DBMS SERVERNAME -- Number (5854) Severity (18) State (1) Server (SERVERNAME) Procedure (sp_configure) Configuration Error: Cannot rename file 'c:\sybase\SERVERNAME.cfg'
The premission seems correct, they haven't been changed on either the file or folder and this is config change is something we do regularly. System specs are:
Adaptive Server Enterprise/12.5.0.3/EBF 11449 ESD#4/P/NT (IX86)/OS 4.0/rel12503/1939/32-bit/O
running on:
Windows Server 2003 Enterprise x64 Edition

Old config files are renamed as SERVERNAME.001, SERVERNAME.002, and so on. Could it be a problem that you have already changed the config 999 times? If it is the case you can copy them somewhere else for archive purposes and remove them from sybase directory.

There were 300 + files in there but I moved then to another folder and was still getting the error.
Have you tried to create such a file in that directory as Sybase user (the user starts ASE)? It must be related to creating those old config files.
