Hallo folks,
for creating a backup inside a report I have the following function DbBackup:
function DbBackup()
{
var ADB = ArisData.getActiveDatabase();
var oFile;
var oDbAdmin;
var lOK;
var sPath = "C:\\Download";
var sFile = "WorkDB "+Date();
Context.setSelectedPath(sPath);
Context.setSelectedFile(sFile);
oFile = new java.io.File(sPath, sFile);
oDbAdmin = Context.getComponent("ServerAdmin");
lOK = oDbAdmin.backupDatabase(ADB, oFile);
return;
}
This function runs through without creating an error.
But unfortunately it does not create any backup file and the answer of "oDbAdmin.backupDatabase(ADB, oFile)" is "false". (lOK = false)
The path "C:\Download" exists on my computer and I run the report on my local server for development.
When starting a backup of this database manually I have no problems. That works fine.
Now I would be very happy if anybody can help me and show me where my mistake is.
Many thanks in advance,
Holger
OK, I found the solution myself. The mistake is the filename. Using Date() generates the filename "WorkDB Fri May 05 2017 09:32:45 GMT+0200 (MESZ).adb" and this can't be handled. The new line for generating the filename is:
var sFile = "WorkDB "+getTimeStamp()+".adb";
getTimeStamp() is an own function that gives back the current date and time in the format "YYYYMMDDhhmm" without any special chars like ":", "(", ")" and "+".
And so it works and I get my backup.
Many thanks to everyone who were thinking about.
