Re: crash after running notmuch new

2020-04-11 Thread Matt
thanks for the support,
since the notmuch database must have been ~7 years long with lots of
upgrade, unexpected shutdowns, configuration fiddling I thought it
would have been very hard to track down the root cause. If I had had a
better idea of the root cause I would have liked to help but all my
tags are automatically set so it was simpler to just regenerate the
database and that's what I ended up doing.

Thanks for the proposition though.

Matt

If you don't have a current dump, you may be able to rescue a dump of
tags from a broken notmuch database using:

https://git.xapian.org/?p=xapian;a=blob;f=README.notmuch;hb=refs/heads/notmuch-tag-rescue-hack

That should work if the termlist table is undamaged (as the above
appears to show), and may work even if it's damaged.

Was the database created with 1.4.15 too?

If it's reproducible, I'm definitely interested.

If it isn't reproducible (and/or the data is sensitive) it's much more
difficult to usefully investigate.  And it may also be due to a
non-Xapian issue (a bug in something else or a hardware problem).

If you have a backup of your tags from notmuch-dump, then yes that's
probably a good way forward.   I've put the xapian developers in copy in
case they are interested in trying to debug this corruption. For those
just joining us, this is notmuch 0.29.3 linked against xapian 1.4.15

suggests there is an error but I couldn't find a fix for it. Should I
just remove the xapian folder and rerun `notmuch new` ?

Thanks !

crash after running notmuch new

2020-04-07 Thread Matt
hi,

I have a script that runs mbsync followed by notmuch new.
It ends with `terminate called after throwing an instance of
'Xapian::DatabaseCorruptError`.

Any idea what could cause this. Here is a trace without symbols thoug
