Answer:
Hello,

you'll have to delete the existing database first, before being able to unpack a cpk archive file to the same directory path.

There is no way to restore a cpk file to an existing database path.

I have an existing database, let's call it mydb.
This database is obsolete and I just get a new database cpk file, and I need to update / overwrite the existing one.

I tried to move the existing one to a save directory and extract the new one (same name that the old one), but I get an error message:

"WARNING: database name '//toc43linux/mydb' already exists in database server 'toc43linux'.
Please use a different database name to retry the operation."

Do I need to stop all the deamons to do that ? Or is there a cleaner way for upgrading an existing database ?

Thanks

Just to clarify, your problem is that the database path is still listed in the database server (informix or oracle). Even if you move/delete the files in the database path, you still need to delete the entry in the database server with the "ccmdb delete" command. Only then can you unpack to the same db path.
