I don't quite follow you, does that mean RPM will try to recover when it notices database corruption? Or just do a verify? BTW, my personal database that started me on this seemed fine in use, but it fell over when the correct item was accessed. Updating to FC6 did that, as did querying the item specifically, and the database failed --verify, but most other operations worked, including updates. If it matters. >That makes this entire thread history afaict.
