I’ve been trying out DT Pro and have been very impressed… until this morning. My MacBook Pro died suddenly (battery problem). When I rebooted DT Pro reported “2 major file errors”. I’ve only had DT Pro for 24 hours, I don’t have any backups, so I proceeded. The Verification step then:
“Found 5607 errors in memory, 788298 file errors and 0 incorrect checksums”.
I cliked OK to proceed with the Rebuild. DT displays a message box with “Exporting” and a progress bar, but that progress bar never moves, even after an hour.
Inside the dtBase package I found a DEVONthink.lock file and a Rebuild directory. Inside Rebuild I found a directory called 05292006202250 with 3 dirs inside that. (05292006202250, 05292006202250-1, 05292006202250-2). Inside those directories I found DEVONtech_storage and a file with a long, strange name :
{\rtf1\mac\ansicpg10000\cocoartf824\cocoasubrtf390?{\fonttbl\f0\fswiss\fcharset77 Helvetica-Bold;\f1\fswiss\fcharset77 Helvetica;}?{\colortbl;\red255\green255\blue255;}?\pard\tx560\tx1120\tx1680\tx2240\tx2800\tx3360\tx3920\tx4480\tx5040\tx5600\tx6160.t
What concerns me is none of the files in the package are being modified. DT is running but consuming very few resources, so I don’t know if it is worth waiting on it or if I should just start over.
I hope this kind of thing doesn’t happen very often, I’m getting attached to this app
Any tips would be appreciated
