Hi all
After a hard day of work in Zope yesterday, I arrive today and receive the error message about database corruption. I know that we can truncate the Data.bbb in the address of the record corrupted, great. And I did it in that way:
perl -e 'truncate "Data.bbb",4672086'
And whe I try to open the Data.bbb again, all is gone ! Only the default Data.bbb was restored, all my data is gone. The users, everything. What is the right way to truncate the Data.bbb please.
Looks like you did it the right way. I've never used perl though, just the unix 'split' program. What you should really worry about is why your database got corrupted in the first place (you do back up your data, right? so the loss of the file won't be that much of a loss, right?). Are you storing the Data.bbb file on a remote filesystem? This is a no no and can cause database corruption. -Michel
