Re: [Summary-Talk] Summary 2.5.5 is now available!



That error message indicates that Summary's internal database has become
corrupt. This can be caused be several different things, ranging from
hardware problems, to power failures, to bugs in Summary.

If you are running an older version of Summary, you should update to the
most recent version, currently 2.5.5.

If you are running Summary in Incremental mode, you should try restoring
a recent backup (on the Tools configuration page). That will likely take
care of the problem.

If you are using the most recent version of Summary and you are not
using incremental mode, or the problem persists after restoring a
backup, then there may be a hardware problem with your machine or a bug
in Summary.

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
