Are you sure the client did not restore the database? I don't see how they can lose the data to the time the backup last worked unless they restored the database from the backup.

>A client had a server crash. Backups had failed for two days, and was unresponsive. Server would not reboot so it was powered off and on.

I took this out, and tried again, and it would not work. Short of other suggestions, I am going to rename current program, and copy in same program from a backup and see if that helps. It would move it to a different area on the server, in case there are bad sectors on the disk.
