Re: [coldsync-hackers] Strange problem with conduits

[Marco van Beek <marco at 84andahalf dot com>]

Hi,

It looks like it was caused by corrupt databases in ./backup posibly 
caused by the system running out of hard disk space during sync'ing.

However, it happened to all 4 active users, so there may be a need to 
put some disk space idiot checking before syncing.

Regards,

Marco.
