error on config save/copy

[subhojithalder198]

Hi

We are getting below error on 7600 router

Router#copy startup-config running-config

Destination filename [running-config]?

%% Non-volatile configuration memory invalid or not present

What could be the possible issue

Your title says that you're trying to save, but from your line you're trying to copy your startup config over the running config. Are you wanting to save the current configuration? If so, use "write mem".

HTH,
John

Worked for me just fine, thanks!

It looks to me that you don't have anything in your startup-config yet. Beware that the command you have there will merge the startup file (if it exists) into the current running config. It does not simply replace it.

Hi

Can you show us the output of

show file system

dir nvram

Do you get the startup config when you do a show start

And by the way why are you copying the startup config into the running config?

Thanks

Ankur
