Copy flash:file startup_config booting router to factory default.

[Rajeev Samantha]

hello

having a problem with my router 3845 whenever i am trying to reload with below command  "copy flash:XXX startup-config" it boots up and comes as default configuration mode. it does not load the file configuration saved in XXX. as result its come as dump box and nothing else.

(C3845-ADVENTERPRISE0_IVS-M), version 12.(4)T7, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2).

i have checked the boot system its having the correct image and there is no changes have done on the router, Earlier it was working fine.

Any idea ?

hello Rajeev,

Can you please post the router current config and post the show ver from the  command line.

Also check what is the confreg value under

router(boot)>show version  
!-- This will be 0x2102 at the next reload. >>>>>>>>>> Ideally it should be same as defined here.
if not then change it.

just add one more thing to change the value, you need to go to global config mode

# config-register 0x2102

then save the configuration and try to load configuration and check if its working fine or not.
