Com.plexapp.plugins.library.db SQL corruption

Server Version#:v1.21.1.3830
Player Version#:

Hi there.

I have a Plex server which has been running for quite a while now.

The server reported SQL corruption errors, so I tried restoring a backup version of the com.plexapp.plugins.library.db file. I still get an error when trying this;

I have tried the repair process, but receive an error;
khetan@kgimac2 Databases % sqlite3 com.plexapp.plugins.library.db “DROP index ‘index_title_sort_naturalsort’”

Error: file is not a database

Unfortunately the same thing happens no matter how early back I go in the backups.

Any tips ?

Seems if I restore from a backup two versions back from the latest, I can go through the corruption repair, export/import of SQL. But then PMS throws this error;

I’ve now restored a com.plexapp.plugins.library.db file from two weeks ago, and it repairs correctly;

khetan@kgimac2 Databases % sqlite3 com.plexapp.plugins.library.db “DROP index ‘index_title_sort_naturalsort’”
khetan@kgimac2 Databases % sqlite3 com.plexapp.plugins.library.db “DELETE from schema_migrations where version=‘20180501000000’”
khetan@kgimac2 Databases % sqlite3 com.plexapp.plugins.library.db .dump > dump.sql
khetan@kgimac2 Databases % rm com.plexapp.plugins.library.db
khetan@kgimac2 Databases % sqlite3 com.plexapp.plugins.library.db < dump.sql
khetan@kgimac2 Databases % rm com.plexapp.plugins.library.db-shm
khetan@kgimac2 Databases % rm com.plexapp.plugins.library.db-wal

But, when I start Plex Media Server up, I get the following error;
