Hi everyone,

I am a newbie in progress, while learning I tried to copy a database from server to my local desktop using procopy.

Using the syntax in command prompt (win xp os), i tried to input >>
procopy "Server:\Original.db" "C:Documents and Settings\admin\mylocal.db" -silent

Results: The database "Server:\Original.db" is in use in multi-user mode. (276)

Had anyone encounter similar issues before?
 
Hi,

Thanks, any idea the parameters to insert into shortcut to my local database ?

The ones resides in server as follows:
K:\bin\prowin32.exe -pf i:\msh60\sl-demo.pf -basekey ini -ininame K:\sl-demo.ini -inp 32000 -tok 8000 -s 32000 -p main.r
 
This shortcut starts a Progress GUI client session not a database. Do you feel any need to play with startup parameters? IMHO proactively using startup parameters is the reason for so many strangely used startup parameters existing in so many ancient parameter files which are only there because somebody sometime in the past recommended it's usage. Most likely they will make things worse. If you don't explicitly need it, don't use it.
