Trying deleting the database, it is located at:
/var/lib/slocate/slocate.db
Then execute updatedb&.
Also you could specify a new database at the command line of updatedb
Read: man updatedb

Are you trying as root or as another user. Maybe the user does not
have
read permissions on the database.
-----Oorspronkelijk bericht-----
error is similar to:
[root@web cron.daily]# locate something
locate: decode_db() aborted. Corrupt database?
should I delete the database and then run the slocate.cron script ? -
if
so
what file should I delete ?
as root - sometimes it gives a few lines of where it finds the info and
then
dies, sometimes it dies straight away - it is the more recent additions
to
the filesystem that are not showing. I had a partition full earlier and
that
could have caused it (?) - plenty of space now - but need to re-create
that
database wherever it is
