Gnome-RDP Can’t Read .gnome-rdp.db After Ubuntu 9.04 Upgrade

by Craig Mayhew on Jun.02, 2009, under Guides/Fixes, Linux/Ubuntu

After upgrading to Ubuntu 9.04, Gnome-RDP stopped working. When I opened it I was greeted with the following errors:

Error in query. Error: file is encrypted or not a database

Invalid database version

There was an error during reading of record

The settings database file has become corrupted or at least it can no longer open it. If your happy to cut your losses and start with a fresh settings file then run this command to rename your Gnome-RDP database file:

mv ~/.gnome-rdp.db ~/.gnome-rdp.db.damaged

This will mean you lose your Gnome-RDP settings and you will need to re-enter them, however you will be able to use Gnome-RDP again! The file will be renamed to .gnome-rdp.db.damaged so you can retrieve that file in the future.
