aloha grind error

[hspos]

Hi,
Im new here.
so, we have a lab set up with aloha 5.2.x running, and has been running well for a while now, everything works great...exept for when we try to manually execute grind.exe

it gives the following error:
Database version not current for directory <aloha directory>
Run Database upgrade.

So, we ran the upgrade (dbconfig.exe) with every combination of options that was viable, and the error still remains.

p.s. the auto grind at the end of day works perfectly
any thoughts?

Make sure you have run the regrind utility on any dated folders.if this is in a lab just delete all the old days if you don't need them. That could help.

Though this is probably not the problem in your case, be advised:

Aloha will report that error message under a number of circumstances, including if the directory you specify doesnt exist or if the path is wrong (i.e. if it can't find that directory).

I once chased my tail for a few minutes with this error, only to find out I was using the wrong dates in the command line.

Run this as a batch file:

%IBERDIR%\BIN\DBUP3.EXE /DBFONLY /DEBUG /FORCEUPGRADE /DBFINPUT %IBERDIR%\NEWDATA /DBFOUTPUT %IBERDIR%\NEWDATA

%IBERDIR%\BIN\DBUP3.EXE /CDX /DEBUG /DBFINPUT %IBERDIR%\NEWDATA /DBFOUTPUT %IBERDIR%\NEWDATA

%IBERDIR%\BIN\DBUP3.EXE /DBFONLY /DEBUG /FORCEUPGRADE /DBFINPUT %IBERDIR%\NEWDATA /DBFOUTPUT %IBERDIR%\DATA

%IBERDIR%\BIN\DBUP3.EXE /CDX /DEBUG /DBFINPUT %IBERDIR%\DATA /DBFOUTPUT %IBERDIR%\DATA
