Error: The catalog database appears corrupted/invalid ##################################################### This issue will occur if the schema contained in the catalog database does not match the schema that ``dds`` expects. This should never occur during normal use of ``dds``. .. note:: If you suspect that ``dds`` has accidentally corrupted its own catalog database, please file a bug report. ``dds`` cannot reliably repair a corrupted database, and the only solution will be to either manually fix it or to delete the database file and start fresh. .. note:: Deleting the catalog database will lose any customizations that were contained in that catalog, and they will need to be reconstructed.
