[Sks-devel] Seemingly corrupted DB, not syncing

[Gunnar Wolf]

Hi,

I noticed today my keyserver has been failing to sync for several days
(to say the least – it still reports knowing only about 3920177 keys,
while I see 4005128 in other servers I supposedly peer with).

Looking at the SKS logs, I see entries such as:

==> db.log <==
2015-08-05 18:01:27 <mail transmit keys> error in callback.: 
Bdb.DBError("BDB0060 PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery")

(but I don't know what recovery it talks about — BDB's?)

Or:

==> recon.log <==
2015-08-05 18:02:40 Raising Sys.Break -- PTree may be corrupted: 
Failure("remove_from_node: attempt to delete non-existant element from prefix 
tree")
2015-08-05 18:02:40 DB closed

So... In your experience, what should be done? Is my best bet to just
drop my DB and download a set of dumps again?

Thanks,
