Hello,

I want to retrieve a singel table out of a dump file, which contains all tables of a company. This dump was originally produced with command "bdpre6.1" and I wanted to use session ttaad4227m000 (Create Table from sequential dump) to restore a table again from the dump.
When I specify the dumpfile (I use absolute path) in the field "Name of the dump file" an errormessage pops up "Wrong dump file"???? What could be the reason for that? The name, the permissons of the file are correct, and it also works with another file.
(Baan IV, OS is AIX 4.3, DB is Oracle 7)

Thank you in advance for all hints and tips!

Whats the name of the dumpfile? and what flags did you send to bdbpre?

What I have seen is that it generally shows "Wrong dump file" error when the path of the file or the file name is not specified correctly. You may want to double-check the path and the file name.

Hey Alex!
In my opinion you should not mix different methiods of handling table dumps.
1.) A complete company dump , also a range of tables can be chosen, using the
"one file" feature won't be usable to import a single table. From there i wonder how you are able to select a single table working with ttaad4227m000, which represents the graphical view of bdpost.
The file is not seperable.
2.) The other feature creates single dump files (*.S), which you can import particularly.

If there is a way to mix the different methods, please leave a note.

i too had the same problem.

It was actually due to the long pathname where the dumpfile.coy existed. So shortent the path name

secondly it can be that you did not give correct company number as the extension.
