Hello,

when using the following code:

s:='"'+txtBackupPath.Text + '\ + strBackupFile + '.sql"';
ShowMessage(s);
PgDump.BackupToFile(s);

ShowMessage delivers

"C:\RAD Studio\Projekte\backupTest\ctswws_Standard_2012-01-22_17-52.backup.sql"

PgDump.BackupToFile results in an error

Datei "C:\RAD Studio\Projekte\CTS_WWS_2012\Win32\Debug\"C:\RAD Studio\Projekte\backupTest\ctswws_Standard_2012-01-22_17-52.backup.sql"" kann nicht erstellt werden. Die Syntax für den Dateinamen, Verzeichnisnamen oder die Datenträgerbezeichnung ist falsch.

saying basically:the path or filename is wrong.
What adds the path of the .exe to the path of the backup file.
How can i get rid of it?

With best regards

Heinz Willi Dahmen

Hello,

This problem occurs due to that you are use double quotes (") in the filename, and this error appears when calling the DelphiTFileStream.Create method. For resolving the problem, delete the double quotes from the filename.

Code: Select all

s:=txtBackupPath.Text + '\ + strBackupFile + '.sql';
