Crash when dropping pdf file into library

Whenever I drag and drop a pdf file into my library, Zotero tells me that an error has occurred and asks me to restart. I had no such problems in the past.

(NS_ERROR_FILE_CORRUPTED) [mozIStorageStatement.execute]" nsresult: "0x8052000b (NS_ERROR_FILE_CORRUPTED)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/fulltext.js :: indexWords :: line 253" data: no]

Your Zotero database is corrupted. You can try the DB Repair Tool.

If your database is too big to upload, rebuilding your full-text index from the Search pane of the Zotero preferences might also help.
