Topic created on: September 6, 2008 16:24 CDT by TSHyper .

Hey ORCE people...

I got a bit of a nasty problem, i woke up this morning to find my database giving me the error "b-tree error - index file is bad". I was last working on my database last night, so this must be random or a problem with IDA saving the database.

I have come across CRC32 errors in the past, but IDA normally repairs them itself, but this one does not, it makes IDA just quit on the stop, and making my database inaccessible.

I need a fix for this, this is 3 years of my research in there, and i was in the process of updating my database and making it not as messy, so my backups are gone :(

Any help is much appreciated,

TSHyper

Well, the best solution is to send the IDB to the nice folks at Hex-Rays, they will probably be able to help with this issue.

Uhh, nice folks wont be so nice when a poor guy uses a copy of IDA hes mate got him.

So i dont think i would get much help there...

a quick look at netnode.hpp would help a little
