Just updated to Live 9.1, library corrupted...SOLVED!!!

Post by bassik » Sun Nov 24, 2013 11:51 pm

Hello all,

I am getting a very frustating moment just after having update to the official 9.1 release.
As soon as I start Ableton I get an error telling me there is a problem with an SQL database and then it gives me a fatal error for Ableton, without shutting it down though.
The library is empty and I cannot see any file in any other folder I have set-up even if I create a new one.

This is killing my evening!!

Anyone had same problem?
I am on Mac OSX Lion with a late 2010 i7.

Cheers
bassik

hello muthafunka,

you are right, that was the issue.
I have managed to solve it by forcing live to rebuild the library.

I have followed the answer from djinvisiboy in this topic of answers:

https://www.ableton.com/answers/ver-9-w ... ts-presets

now everything works but I might have lost some presets.

Hope this helps

the simple way was just waiting that indexer scan your factory packs.

I had the same behavior yesterday and a very few minutes later all was back ok.

I would hardly suggest to ableton staff that they have forgotten to add the spinning circle in PLACES, like it was with live 9.0.x :roll:

without this spinning circle users don't notice ableton indexer is scanning the whole folder and worry for nothing
