[Spambayes] Once cause for "DBRunRecoveryError: (-30982, 'DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery -- fatal region error detected; run recovery'"

[Brad Commins]

Hi.



I've found two ways to cause the aforementioned error. 



1.	In XP, if the Application Data folder is redirected to a
server-based location with offline folders configured AND connectivity
to the server-based location is interrupted and then restored, the DB
can be corrupted when XP tries to synchronize while SB is running.  The
OS does provide a warning to close all apps before synchronizing due to
possible data corruption, but if a user does not heed the warning, a
corrupted SB DB can result.
2.	Similarly, if two or more computers access the same online
redirected / offline /roaming profile simultaneously (the same user is
logged into a laptop and desktop for example), the DB can be corrupted.



Hope this helps and keep up the great work!



Brad
