Note, Gramps-3.2.5 still runs fine with python 2.5.2 and BSDDB: 4.4.5.3 (ubuntu 8.04)... This might be related to OS (Win NT!!), python and/or bindings. > How can I repair the database? After making steps listed by Benny, maybe you can try "Check & Repair" database tool 'Tools menu -> Database repair' ? /but only after having safety backups and copies/ Do not check privacy marks or filters when you export to Gramps XML file format (backup complete data). --- En date de : Mer 2.2.11, Benny Malengier <ben...@gm...> a écrit : De: Benny Malengier <ben...@gm...> Objet: Re: [Gramps-users] Re : Help for database error À: "Heinz Brinker" <hei...@ya...> Cc: gra...@li..., "jerome" <rom...@ya...> Date: Mercredi 2 février 2011, 9h15 2011/2/2 Heinz Brinker <hei...@ya...> Hi jerome, just installed 3.2.5 Same behaviour. Freeze after entry of event when clicking OK on the event reference window immediately after clicking OK on source editor window. I always have to wait 1 sec between OK on these two windows. Also when adding child to family (from relationship view). Wait 1 sec between OK on source editor window and OK on person editor window or else it freezes. Can be reproduced with 100% fail rate. Mail me if I can be of any help for finding the cause. Is it possible to find out where python is stuck? Very bad situation you are having. Somebody on windows had the same thing some time ago, but did not get back in touch to say if he could fix it. It must be some interplay with the database and other libraries. You should _never_ get database freezes, when that happens, something goes seriously wrong. You are on an old install of windows, some people have been forced to install a more recent version of the database on windows XP to avoid strange database problems. That fully fixed it. I think the best is to: 1. Have full backup of your database ( grampsdb folder) and make sure you also have xml file backup. 2. Remove the gramps folder with your ini settings, and with the database. So fully purge it 3. Start Gramps, it should recreate the folder 4. Import your data into Gramps. If that does not fix the problem: 1. make sure you have backup of all your data needed on a different medium/computer 2. purge all gramps things, so make sure the program is gone. If possible, also purge your current python, as that holds the database interface 3. reinstall python 4. reinstall gramps As you say files seem to be missing, you might also think about possible problems with your computer. The database we use is made by Oracle, having it remove some database tables would really not be acceptable. If you have memory or disk corruption starting to happen on your PC, everything is possible of course. This is very sensitive code that runs with the primitives of your PC. Note that Gramps import speed is not good at the moment, so patience on import. The next point version will again have the same speed as people where used to (40x faster or so).
