The problem is exactly that PTree db is corrupted. The weird thing is
that it's freshly generated from a brand new KDB.

For every try I've mentioned in previous message I've generated the KDB
with build or fastbuild, I've cleaned it with cleandb, then I've
generated PTree with "sks pbuild -cache 20  -ptree_cache 70" (but I've
also tried with other cache values, just to be sure)

I've also tried both runing build/pbuild commands as root to fix
permissions after the database were built and running them directly with
debian-sks user. I've also tried running it with "mnencia" user in a
different directory without lucky.

I'm quite sure it isn't a problem of db_env, because I've tried to run
several db_recover (with or without the -e flag) and db_checkpoint -1.

I can also assure you that it isn't a memory problem, because the server
is a virtual machine that lives in a blade server with checked memory.

I'm at my wits' end.

Thanks for the help,
Marco
