[Sks-devel] sks hangs

[Jan Dreyer]

Hi,

i run in some problems with sks :-(
Our sks gets its keys from some sks-peers and also from our pksd on the 
same machine by mailsync.
Some keys of the latter seem to be problematic. The server hangs when 
getting these; the result are sksdb processes which doesn't respond (but 
are not dead either) and logentries in log.db like this one:

2004-03-12 23:30:03 Adding list of 1 keys from file 
/var/spool/sks/messages/msg-80996481.ready
2004-03-12 23:30:03 Applying 1 changes
2004-03-12 23:30:03 Adding hash FB19F8D51511BE3C51E73FFBE4A1EEAD
2004-03-12 23:30:03 Fatal database error: Bdb.DBError("page 0: illegal page 
type or format")
2004-03-12 23:30:03 <mailsync> callback interrupted by break.
2004-03-12 23:30:03 Shutting down database
2004-03-12 23:30:03 Database sync'd

An example for such a sync-mail is at 
http://www-math.uni-paderborn.de/ca/TMP/msg-64360496.ready

Maybe some of the experienced users can explain this behavior?

Greetings
