Upgrade Storagehelp zotero.sqlite.1.bak damaged
Hi dear all,
I need help, I stored intentionally my library in a USB stick. I normally have no problems with that. However, today I opened my Firefox and suddenly I got a yellow sign saying "Database upgrade error" with no further details. I thought it was the classic I don¿t find the file thing of Zotero, but I think it is not the case... I actually do not remeber if yesterday I was asked to upgrade something on Firefox, 'cos I am now use to press "yes" almost automatically... it might be the case of the problem, but might be also not... Anyway.
I tried to copy the whole file, containing all sqlite fines to another location and I got the message "zotero.sqlite.1.bak cannot be moved to a different location because it might be damaged"... All other files are perfect but ZOtero don't want to open the library form the new location, I guess because this "zotero.sqlite.1.bak" misses...
I have backups, but not very new and I am currently on a deadline that is almost killing me because of this.
I would appreciate any insights!!!!

dstillmanzotero.sqlite.1.bak is a backup file—it's not needed for Zotero to start. So if you want to focus on why Zotero isn't starting from the new location, you'll need to provide more information on that, such as the error you're getting.
