Hi.
I have a corrupt map for a server I run and need help to fix it. The server computer crashed on BSOD thus corrupting the map. I am unable to fix it.
Is there any map fixing gurus out there that could point me to a tool or process that could possible fix this?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Help with repairing Corrupt map.
The most important questions here are:
- Can Minetest still open the database file correctly?
- Does the world load but contents are messed up?
- Or does MT throw world load errors?

"Database disk image is malformed" can sometimes be fixed with DB Browser available from here:

Good luck with the repair.

Nope, it is malformed image. It crashes when entering the world.

I have tried for a long time and cannot fix it.
I think I may as well pull the plug on any further minetest projects for good and stick with playing other servers or other games.
It was my fault for not backing up daily.

See:

Since you mentioned BSOD, I'm guessing this was running on Windows. You may have better luck trying to recover it on Linux, especially making use of the recover feature that's apparently now built into SQLite.
I generally use PostgreSQL as the backend for any significant database, it's extremely robust. I'm running it as the backend for a Minetest server myself.
See if you can recover it with SQLite's built-in recovery feature before you give up on it completely.
Good luck,
- Phil
