Hi
Thanks for your help.
The problem is that it stops to restore the log files after reading log file 0000000100000023000000F7.
The recovery does not continue to read log file 0000000100000023000000F8 and the rest of the log files.
I don't under stand why it stops to read the rest of the log files.
Lars

What actually went wrong? Because the log looks like a perfectly
normal restore? (Though you should really add timestamps to your log)
> 2. Is it possible to extract sql insert's from the archive files abouve and in that way find the content of the row I deleted ? (The table name oks_kartobjekt_flate only occurs in about 10 archive files)
No, the archive files only contain the binary changes to the disk
blocks, not the SQL statements or data.
