Hi Leah,
I'm uploading the official babase to papio. It will be in
Database/DATA. This is the file you want to work with.
I still can't delete the DATA_old folder because of the DATA directory
within it. DATA_old is garbage so just ignore it. In fact, just delete
it once you change the permissions.
On the off-chance that I have done something bizarre to the official
babase (i.e. DATA) like uploaded corrupt files, I am also leaving you
DATA_backup. This contains the DATA files that Karl used for the most
recent conversion (errors_v7 are the result of this conversion). We
know these files are all good, and since I won't be in this weekend to
trouble-shoot any problems, it seems sensible to just leave it as a
backup. I made about 6 changes to the 2005 ranks today after the
conversion was run, so let me know if you have to resort to using this
slightly older version. I can just re-do those changes easily...they
have nothing to do with the v7 error messages.
Just as an FYI, there are some ALM ranks errors in errors v7 that you
may want to look at. I don't know who is handling male ranks errors
now, but you should be aware that they exist.
I have changed permissions on babase_changelog and DATA so they are all
yours. You changed the permissions on DATA_backup before I renamed it
so you can delete it if you don't need it.
Hope this all makes sense. Let Karl know when you make the updates and
he says he will run another conversion to check for errors.
I can't say have a 'good' weekend since you will be working....so how
about have a productive weekend?
