RE: [cobalt-users] Corrupt database

["Riki Risnandar" <riki@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

i was having same problem in my raq4-r last month, its caused by damaged
file in some directory,
after delete then rebuild slocate.db a couple times, i found some binary
character when i try to locate file like
/home/sites/users/someone/*&^@_#(I(F(*U&D!@$%*&Y#HJNDSL&*^@&^

after deleting some files in that directory and rebuild the slocate.db the
locate command working properly.

regards
Riki

Hi

One of our raq3 server is getting this error when we try and use locate, it
will find some entries before giving this error.

locate: decode_db() aborted. Corrupt database?
[root@servername admin]#

I have checked through the archives and found nothing.

We have tried to rebuild the database and even removed it and created a new
one with updatedb (/var/lib/slocate/slocate.db)
Tried changed permissions on the database, still nothing

I see that some other people have had this but I could not see anyone that
had a fix for it

If anyone could help a big thanx

Regards
Brett
