Database upgrade error

Hello, when I try to open zotero, I get a yellow triangle with the text "Database upgrade error". Here is the debug data from the console window:

  • What version of Zotero is this?

    This is a pretty strange error. Have you tried reinstalling Zotero 2.1.8 from zotero.org?
  • The reinstall worked. I should have tried that from the beginning--thanks!
