| Summary | 0000537: Add support for Repair Switches for Malformed Strings when restoring pre-FB 2.5 backups to v2.5 DB | ||||
| Description | When attempting to restore a backup file created from a particular Firebird v2.1 Dialect 1 database into a v2.5 DB using a Restore Project in Database Workbench v 3.4.4.4, the file runs normally to a point, but then fails with the message "ERROR: Malformed string." It would be nice if the Restore Project had checkboxes that would implement the switches listed below under "Additional Information" so that we don't have to use the command liine utility to perform future restorations. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Create Backup Project for database on FB v2.1 Server. Run Backup project against v2.1 database. Create Restore Project for same database on FB v2.5. Run Restore Project on against v2.5 database with "Overwrite Existing Database", "Create Shadow Files" and "Restore Validity Conditions" checked. | ||||
| Additional Information | From the Firebird 2.5 Release notes: "Repair Switches for Malformed Strings Adriano dos Santos Fernandes Tracker reference CORE-1831. The gbak utility has two new restore switches intended to repair malformed UNICODE_FSS character data and metadata, respectively, when restoring the backup of an affected database. Switch Syntax -FIX_FSS_D(ATA) <charset> -- fix malformed UNICODE_FSS data -FIX_FSS_M(ETADATA) <charset> -- fix malformed UNICODE_FSS metadata " | ||||
