hello

thanks for the reply!

i was a little scared because the backups where all hot copies of the 
running server. but an older version did the job! the server came up 
running again!

it turned out the schema was broken in apacheds/data-default/schema/cn.db
that file could not even be copied anymore on the system itself (same 
input/output error.

can't wait for version 2.0 :-)


best regards
