    Default Berkeley DB error: fatal region error detected; run recovery

    I'm getting a lot of the following error in /var/log/exim_mainlog:

    Berkeley DB error: fatal region error detected; run recovery

    Can anyone tell me what this is? I'm getting a ton of them.

    Thanks,

    Griz

    Have you tried reinstalling exim:

    First, delete the db files:

    /etc/init.d/exim stop
    rm -Rfv /var/spool/exim/db/*


    Then reinstall:

    /scripts/eximup --force
