Hello;

Using Firebird 5.0.3 64 bit I found this case today (same in 3 diferent database and machine).

It seems the slave-side received a segment (corrupt, I guess ...), and Firebird is not accepting it. The point is that Firebird is not using it for updating the database, but it does not report any issue on the replication.log file.

When I overrided this segment with a new copy (not corrupted, I guess) then Firebird used it.

I attached here the control file and the segment, maybe this is a minor bug that may be fixed.

Regards.

Hi there 

Is it a corrupt journal file, or is it that the journal files are not in order? 
Did it receive  345 but still waiting for 344 ? 

All the Best

  Turn on "verbose_logging" at replica config and you'll see "Skipping file (%s) due to unknown format" message in replicaiton.log
