891310233 Error in the database - Please restart firefox

anatolica
Thank you for such an amazing tool:) It is a dream come true, really:)

I have been receiving this error for a number of times now; which started when I wanted to create an item from a local file. I know that this file could not be saved in the database, however it's still shown in the items list and I cannot delete it. Whenever I try to do so, zotero wants me to restart Firefox, and says the corrupted file is saved in some folder, and the database was retrieved from a saved earlier state.

What can I do to remove this file and get rid of the error messages?

Thanks

    Use the DB Repair Tool, and then consider upgrading to Firefox 3, which fixes database instability problems in Firefox 2.

    Thanks a lot -now I am trying to upload the zipped zotero.sqlite.bak file while installing ff3

    Thank you, thank you and again, thanks a lot!! I could delete the file and the repaired database works nicely,

    wish I knew some coding and help you (and myself):)

    have a nice day! --ayca
