Dear BaseX people,
We create a backup of a BaseX 8.6.4 database using a windows scheduled process:
call basexclient -V -Uadmin -Padmin -c "CREATE BACKUP imvertor-*"
We have a server process that interacts with the databases, all called Imvertor-*. In accessing the database at certain moments the backup process seems to conflict with the update process. This is visible in the log:

This is rather a serious problem; the whole database is lost. Our software is set up such that the database is created when it is not found. Hence the last log...
Do you recognize the problem, and can you specify how to avoid it? Hope this gives you enough info.
Thanks in advance!
