My customer says that pc was freeze during a rebuilding of database, then there are the
reason of catalog error.

I recovered a backup of data and it is working fine now.

Thanks and regards.

The data was fine, it was the catalog that was corrupted.  However, EDB
always makes a backup of the catalog (edbdatabase.edbcat.old) and flushes it
to disk prior to updating the catalog file, so there should always be a
valid copy of the catalog on disk that you can use.

The catalog that you sent me was essentially half-filled with 0x00 bytes, so
it looks like the file system blocks were corrupted due to the write of the
catalog data being interrupted.
