Sybase crash

Classic Servoy
1

I installed Servoy Server (2.1.2) on Linux Debian.
Servoy seems to work wihout problems, but sybase not.

I have 2 solution with 2 databases. Each database has a scheduled bakup event. The code for bakup is the same (except for destination path), but doing the backup on one of the databases crashes sybase (it seems after backup has complete).

Anyone experienced this problem?

This is the backup event code:

BEGIN
  BACKUP DATABASE
  DIRECTORY '<HERE THE PATH>' TRANSACTION LOG RENAME MATCH
END

Any idea?

Can you email the database with the problems to support@Servoy.com? They will file a support case with Sybase Support for you.

I have a similar problem with Sybase (installed with Servoy 2.2.6) scheduled backup on OS X Server - 10.4.8. 1 out of 10 backups will crash Sybase and hang the entire server. I had suspected a hardware fault (memory) but it happened again this morning after 411MB of the 2GB .db file had been backed up. It was a mystery why the server had been hanging before (as previous backups had still been successful) however it is now clear that Sybase doing an auto backup is the cause of the hang.

Any ideas?

Thanks

have you checked the console on that box? there might be a clue

also, when is the last time this server had a “tune-up” including perhaps running a disk util?
