Hi guys
I’m currently using v5.1.3 on Xubuntu 20.04,
I’m trying to convert my BSDDB to SQlite but it fails every time with the following error
30497: ERROR: grampsapp.py: line 156: Unhandled exception
Traceback (most recent call last):

self.__connection.commit()
sqlite3.OperationalError: database is locked.
I’ve tried creating a new tree and importing a GEDCOM and .gramps backup file all to no avail, when I try to create a new tree and open it I get a message saying “Low level corruption detected” and suggesting I click the Repair button in the Tree Manager but unfortunately the Repair button is greyed out.
Any help would be appreciated as this is beginning to worry me if the devs decide to no longer support BSDDB
