Hello,

i was wondernig if someone can help me out with this. one of our database crash yesterday. Today i was checking the event log to see what happen i notice this error:

Jul 13 09:57:14 fm-server.local INFO: Closing file "Students Database" due to serious error. (10204).

i check at filemaker.com to see if it happen to someone before. any help would be appreciate it.

thanks

There's no way that I'm aware of to know exactly what happened when this 'error' occured. It really sucks, because a lot of the other events that FM Server spits out gives no real indication on what happened, and (more importantly) how to correct it.

Has this error popped up before? If so, try to compare to what happened last time (was a user entering in a new record, were they exporting, etc...).

I'm supposing that you can still go on and use this file, but I'd suggest to (at minimum) export all of the data in that file. Also, run a recovery on it. If you've got a backup (clean) copy of the file, replace it and import the data back in. File corruption in FileMaker is hard if not impossible to detect. The problem could be dorment for a long time, and then just pop right out unexpectantly.
