[Zope-dev] Corrupted database, ZopeHTTPServer won't start

[Martin Dougiamas]

Oh no!

My 1.10.2 Zope server (Redhat 6.0) had to be hard-booted (keyboard lockup)
and so the Zope server never got a chance to close nicely.

Now I can't start ZopeHTTPServer at all!   :-(

var/serve.errors contains just this:

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "serve.py", line 92, in ?

    raise DatabaseError, ('Corrupted data record at %s' % pos)
DatabaseError: Corrupted data record at 3111549


What can I do?   I need to get that data back.
