I've tried gramps -v on my Vista PC from the old-fashioned DOS command prompt window. No luck. I tried PowerShell, both from the gramps<verno> directory & the \AppData\gramps\gramps34 tree. I tried python gramps -v in both places & got the same response - command not recognized. Is there a Windows user who can tell me in what directory (folder) I need to be for the command to be recognized? Thanks! Irene |

Try something like this for 32 bit: cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\GrampsAIO32\bin" "C:\Program Files (x86)\GrampsAIO32\bin\python.exe" -EO ..\share\gramps\gramps.py -v > C:\USERS\%USERNAME%\desktop\grampsversions32.txt or for 64 bit: cd "C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64\bin" "C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64\bin\python.exe" -EO ..\share\gramps\gramps.py -v > C:\USERS\%USERNAME%\desktop\grampsversions64.txt Then you hopefully will get a text file on your desktop. /Peter Irene Newhouse skrev 2012-12-20 21:40: > I've tried gramps -v on my Vista PC from the old-fashioned DOS command > prompt window.

Yes!!!! That worked!!! I'm speechless. A. that someone made this so baroque B. that someone else could actually figure it out. Thanks SO much! I've got to have bsddb 4.8...

I've got to have bsddb 4.8... > Hmm, On Mac and linux this is an easy thing to do, but indeed in windows much less so it seems. You should do a feature request to have the info you see when doing gramps -v also visible somewhere in the UI, eg in the help->about. Like that it would be easy to find for everybody ... Peter, perhaps you can put this somewhere in the manual, eg in http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gramps_4.0_Wiki_Manual_-_Command_Line Perhaps in the examples section a windows section? I would hope there is some easier way using powershell. It seems using that part of gramps on windows requires quite some typing :-) Anyway, Irene, if problems, put the directory in a dropbox folder or something like https://spideroak.com/ and share it with me privately. Now that we know it is bsddb 4.8, I can also have a try if I have the data.

Developers, I have now tried to recover databases of two people, and both times there were no .db files in the directory they send me. Both in windows. Does somebody know how that could be? In both cases I can obtain the last good save data from the backup .gbkp files, so the users should have not a lot of work to redo. Without the .db files we can't even start to do a recover. Is there some process that deletes the .db files ?? Could it be they tried recover from the interface, and that failed after deleting the .db files? Irene, the file I send you, based on the last good save data (gramps stores this when you close it), is the only data I can send you, as the database tables (extension .db, like the meta_data.db in the data you send me) are not present in the data you have send me. I hope that is good enough for you. Developers, perhaps a save button or menu option that writes out new .gbkp files when clicking it is not a bad idea if the .db files can disappear in some way.
