True. But I expect it will take a while. I'd be happy for an immediate solution to make my database functional again.
I tried your script. First problem I had was that Marshmallow didn't let me backup to the SD card. No location was writable. Something else Mike will have to deal with.
But since MSP had no access to the source files the backup was small and I could write to internal storage and copy from there.
I couldn't use msb_reloc.pl successfully though. When I used the parameters
--src=/storage/sdcard1/ --dst=/storage/6630-6438/ MobileSheetsProBackup.msb
it just produced a 6.715 kb MobileSheetsProBackup_reloc.msb (froma 12MB MobileSheetsProBackup.msb) and the message/output
C:\Perl64\bin>msb_reloc.pl --src=/storage/sdcard1/ --dst=/storage/6630-6438/ Mob

and stuck there.
When I run the script without parameters it prompts the missing files and writes a slightly smaller (but still 12 MB) MobileSheetsProBackup_reloc.msb
What's wrong?
