Please help. I’m in a bit of a pickle.
Here’s what I did today.
1) Backed up project.
2) Validated integrity of project – no problems found.
3) Re-optimised project. Lots of errors, files not found, things missing etc.
4) TMG went away.
5) Restarted TMG but it couldn’t open the project.
6) Attempted to restore backup but I got the message that someone else is using the project.
7) Rebooted and repeated step 6
8) Created a new blank project and repeated step 6.
9) Rebooted and repeated step 6 with a much older backup – same result.
10) Tried to open TMG Utility with this result
Error -1 from [CTMGDB.VerifyIndexFiles]
Index files are missing (see below); open the dataset in TMG to build the index files, then close TMG and try again.
Index file(s) missing:
Dowd_Marlborough_$.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_a.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_e.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_f.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_g.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_i.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_k.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_l.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_m.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_p.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_r.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_s.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_t.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_u.cdx
Dowd_Marlborough_w.cdx
But I can't open the dataset to rebuild the index files. I have lots of backups but TMG won’t restore any of them. Please help.
I’m using Gold UK edition v. 8.08.000 on Windows 7.
TIA, Irene
