Today I noticed that if I tried to "show run" nothing happened. I mean that it doesn't show anything and just sends me right http://serverfault.com/questions/50052/cisco-7206-error-trying-to-copy-running-config-bad-file-number back to the command prompt. I decided I should probably try and back up the config and that is where I'm stuck. Any time I try to copy the running-config to tftp or to pcmcia card that I know is not full I get the following error: %Error opening system:/running-config (Bad file number) I get this error when I try to do anything with the running config. I've been googling around, but I haven't found any thing else that talks about this error. I've seen people say to erase the nvram and then try to "copy run start", but I don't want to erase the nvram until I can pull off a copy of the running-config. I would try to reboot it, but the startup-config that is on the nvram looks to be woefully out of date (good job me!). Any ideas what might be wrong? or how I can get the running config off the router? cisco share|improve this question edited Aug 5 '09 at 18:38 asked Aug 4 '09 at 21:46 jasondewitt 88138 add a comment| 4 Answers 4 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote This sounds like there is som
