Missing .B1 file

[JMA]

A user of our application has copied a wrong DB and B1 file. The only thing left is the D1 file in wich the data is stored.
From the knowledge base from Progress we tried the solution found in Kbase id : 19908. This doesn't work.
Also we found some documentation about proutil with the DBRPR parameter.

This dumps the data in a file. The dumpfile can be opened and it looks correct.
After making a new database (prodb) and loading the DF-file we
truncate the BI file of the new database. Then we try to load the data with proutil DBRPR to the new database.
The data doesn't load in the new database.

Is there someone who has been is the same situation and who knows the answer.

answer

you need to do the following:

prostrct unload dbname
(unload db)
and then....

proutil dbname -C truncate bi -F
(force access into db)

then do an index rebuild to remove the -F (force option)

start db single user and test. then you should be able to bring up in multiuser mode.
