randhir Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 My application is crashing and need to recover in every 2 or 3 months,why its happening
bcooney Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 Randhir, I am sorry to hear you are having troubles. You need to provide much more info, though, if you want some answers. Are you serving the file on FMS on OS X? You mention recovering. It is not suggested that you use a recovered file, as they are unstable. You should recover only to export the data into a "golden" master.
randhir Posted January 4, 2012 Author Posted January 4, 2012 I am not serving the application on FM Server, I am using the application by the FM 10 for the windows.
bcooney Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 If your file continues to crash, and you recover and then use the recovered file, you are going to keep having problems. If you don't have a file that wasn't recovered, then my suggestion is to rebuild the file (File>New). Really.
Steven H. Blackwell Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 Agreed. One of the dangers of peer to peer hosting is that the file will crash a lot. What else is going on with the machine that hosts the file? Steven
Wim Decorte Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 and what are the event logs saying about the crash. The windows application event log should tell you what module of FM the crash is happening in and that may be a clue. Given the problems you've been having, get FileMaker Server and put the files there. At least that will give you the ability to have live backups.
