hi

did you DEattach the db before coping the files ?
if not then you most do this.
or just backup the database and restore.

Please read my post more carefully. I attempted to backup the database but got the attached error message when I tried.

I then attempted to copy the file (detached file) and  when I tried to paste onto the backup drive would get an error. It appears that the db may be corrupted and I wanted to know if there was a way to repair it.

I need to wipe the RAID system clean and reinstall all software and would like to be able to save this DB. Thanks

Although I was not able to save this file and test these solutions, I will split the 500 points between Daniel_PL and Qlemo. Thanks
