Error: Can't connect to the database: file is encrypted or is not a database

I am getting this error below. It worked fine, but for now I cannot get it to run.

And this in the browser:

Could try this:

https://github.com/rembo10/headphones/wiki/Troubleshooting#database-problems

@AdeHub I've already been to that page and nothing on there applies to my issue. I did look through all the links, but there is nothing in there to resolve the issue.

Have you tried it?

[vincentw56]

Have I tried what? There is nothing there about not being able to connect to a database. I have no corruption. There are 4 referenced posts about different things.

I followed the information here: #1981 (comment). That seemed to fix the issue. I guess anytime there is a database issue, we should run that first. The first time, after many years, that I've ever had an issue with Headphones.
