Do you recover from this at all? Does it happen on evey run? Mine
somehow recovered on its own. It appeared on Jul 15th (in my logs) and
after (8 hours later so) it downloaded the daily.cvd and was done with it.
If the problem remains I suggest to remove the database and fetch it
again.

Is this a third-party database?
