I have a .aup3 file I’ve recorded just a few moments ago. I was unable to save it as a .wav file, and now that I’ve restarted my computer I get a message saying "Project is corrupt (unable to work with blockfiles).
Here’s the log which shows underneath:
15:22:32: Error: Could not parse file “E:\Audacity\Indian separatists 3.aup3”.
Error: Project is corrupt
(Unable to work with the blockfiles)
15:26:04: sqlite3 message: (11) database corruption at line 70749 of [7ebdfa80be]
15:26:04: sqlite3 message: (11) statement aborts at 8: [DELETE FROM sampleblocks WHERE NOT inset(blockid);] database disk image is malformed
15:26:04: DBConnection SetDBError
ErrorCode: 11
LastError: Project is corrupt
(Unable to work with the blockfiles)
LibraryError: database disk image is malformed
I made three recordings this afternoon in the same session on Audacity, and had no problem with the other two.
If anyone could help me recover this it would be much appreciated!
Thank you so much! I’ve zipped it up and put it on my Google Drive with the share setting set to “anyone with the link.” Please let me know if you need it shared in a different way.
I received this same “Project is corrupt” error last night on a 560MB AUP3 that I spent quite a few hours working on. I had already finished and exported it to WAV and it seems okay so I don’t desperately need it fixed, but is there any information I can provide that would help figure out why this is happening? It could be really unpleasant if it happens at the wrong time.
The details were:

Hello, I have the same problem and I do not understand… Yesterday the file worked perfectly and this morning impossible to open it… Here is the error message if someone can help me it would be very nice .
So I shut down one PC and moved my project on an external to another one.
I try and open the .AUP file and get the Invalid or Corrupt error
Here’s what’s in the log

I’ve been working on this for 2 weeks and I would hate to start over
I couldn’t understand how I had missed your post - apparently, I hadn’t as my records show that I previously downloaded your file and repaired it, but for some reason, I was interrupted and I failed to return it to you. Anyway, I was able to rescue your repaired file from my trash basket, so I didn’t need to reprocess it. I PM’d you a link to the recovered file.
Again, sorry for the delay. In the future if someone fails to respond to a post within 24 or 48 hours, you can simple create a new post with the simple message: bump. No one’s feelings will be hurt, as these things happen.
