I added a large amount of content the other night. Today I realized that it only added 90% of it. Since then I’ve had issues adding any content. I tried restoring a DB from a few days ago, and now I’m missing all of the content I’ve added since that DB was backed up.

I am seeing SQlite errors in the logs:
