PRB: Jetpack Failed With Error = 80

ID: Q142376

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.5, 3.51, 4.0

SYMPTOMS

When you run the program Jetpack.exe to compact a WINS or DHCP database, you may get the following message:

Temporary database Temp.mdb already exists.
Jetpack failed with error = 80

CAUSE

You have typed in a Jetpack command line using the file name Temp.mdb for the temporary database file, such as:

Jetpack.exe wins.mdb temp.mdb

Jetpack.exe actually uses two temporary files to compact the database. The first one is hardcoded as Temp.mdb, and the second one is specified on your command line.

When Jetpack is finished, it will delete the Temp.mdb file, so you should also make sure that you don't save any file with the name Temp.mdb in the WINS or DHCP directory.

RESOLUTION

Use any other file name for your temp file, as in this example:

Jetpack.exe wins.mdb tmp.mdb

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
