Translating with DrWatson… this can take a few seconds the first time.

Stefano Frignani got Invalid logging change to dbname when changing logging on a database made by dbimport with ontape -s -B. Brett Randall suggested ontape -s -L 0 -B dbname and querying sysdatabases for log status. It still failed, and Brett advised checking the current logging mode and the database name spelling. Unresolved.

Hi All,
We try to change log to database imported by dbimport 'd dbspace dbname
ontape 's 'B dbname, but we receive the follow message:
'Invalid logging change to dbname'.
How can we solve the problem?
Another question:
How can we know the log state of several databases?
Thank in advance, Stefano Frignani.

Then check :-
1) The current logging mode of the database.
2) That you have spelt the database name correctly.
