I hope this is the right place for this, just following the FAQ :) I have managed to corrupt my database multiple times, and I believe I know why it is happening (to me at least)
The corruption shows itself as "fatal region error detected; run recovery" error when trying to train Spambayes. Every time this has happened, has been after I have defragmented the drive using a 3rd party disk defragmentor called DiskKeeper Professional version 10.0 SpamBayes was running while DiskKeeper was defragmenting, and the defragment process took sufficient time (unattended) that my email program (Pegasus) would have attempted to download email multiple times during the process. The fix for me at least, is to close SpamBayes and email progams when defragmenting, something I should have done in the first place but forgot to do. _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
