Hey,

I've read online that the solution is to simply delete the damaged blobs.
Without really "knowing" what these blobs are, I'm nervous about it.
I have 2 .db files occasionally giving the "possibly damaged blob" to, is it
really safe to just go in and delete them?
Thanks,
James

Not sure what other info you want.
This comes up on my Groupwise POA 6.5.7 on the server.
In between the quickfinder indexes it will come up with:
"Possibly damaged blob in database = dmdd0703.db"
and
"Possibly damaged blob in database = dmdd0503.db"
and
"Possibly damaged blob in database = userp83.db"

Thanks for any input.
James

James,

Your message was not posted to the official Novell news
server. While your news server might show the Novell support
newsgroups, Novell has no official connection with other news
servers on the Internet. Therefore, the message you posted
will probably never propagate to the official Novell server.
The SysOps only see messages on the Novell server and for
that reason, you will probably never get a reply to your
message posted here.

I suggest you post your message directly to the official

The first two are document management related. Dunno if you care about
those. See how info helps people advise you? The second is a user DB. It
will proobably mean a lost attachment to delete it. On the other hand
there isn't much you can do - it's telling you the file isn't readable.
