When performing a backup job of any type on the AhsayOBM / AhsayACB client application, the following error message is received in the backup report:

[SQLITE_CORRUPT] The database disk image is malformed (database disk image is malformed)

This issue can occur if there is a corrupted index file on the backup set.

The following factors could trigger a backup set index corruption:

  • The machine where the backup job is running was previously shutdown / rebooted when a backup job was still running
  • Disk issue on the computer where the backup is performed
  • Unstable network connection between the backup computer and network temp folder
  • Backup client application crashed during a previous backup
  • Backup client application encountered an out of memory of "Java Heap Size" error during a previous backup.

To resolve this issue, try deleting the current index files from the temporary folder on the backup machine.

  1. Make sure there is no backup or restore job running.
  2. Browse to the folder:

    %temp_folder_path%\%backupSetID%\%destination_name%@%destinationID%\index\

    Example: C:\Users\ahsay\temp\1719374142445\OBS@1719374209145\index

  3. Delete the current index file.
  4. Perform a Data Integrity Check with rebuild index enabled.
  5. Perform a manual backup again.

If the SQLITE_CORRUPT error persists, contact Ahsay support representatives for further assistance.
