FWIW, the same happens if I try to use the compat-db programs, only worse:

address@hidden KDB]$ db41_recover
db_recover: unable to join the environment
db_recover: Ignoring log file: log.0000000056: unsupported log version 8
db_recover: Invalid log file: log.0000000056: Invalid argument
db_recover: PANIC: Invalid argument
db_recover: PANIC: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery
db_recover: fatal region error detected; run recovery
db_recover: DB_ENV->open: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery


I really hate the berkeley utils. Isn't this like a chicken and the egg 
problem? "Run database recovery", and error reported WHILE TRYING TO RUN 
A DATABASE RECOVERY. You've got to be kidding me.


I have to leave in an hour. I hope someone can help me recover the DB 
before then else I'll just have to rebuild it I guess. That will take 
all day.
