Hello,

I try to repair a Firebird 5 Database (superserver, Winwos11), but neather gfix now gbak (both with option verbose) show any output except press button to continue.

"press button to continue" is not a part of the behaviour of gfix or gbak, AFAIK.

Would you send us your command lines so we can take a look?


Regards

As far as I'm aware, there is no message "press button to continue" in
Firebird or its commandline tools.

Generally, with gfix, unless the database is corrupt beyond repair. See
