                        It seems there is checksum errors, so most likely that data is corrupted

                          I would recommend restoring from your previous backup. If you really need some data from those files, you could look at them with hex editor, or linux command "strings somefilename"

                                  @dmitrii Oh nice that repair did work. Please check that you did not lose some part of data when repairing.

                                    Hi there,m I'm new to this community, just now starting to integrate Wekan in my company's Workflow. Before we've been using Trello, but we've heard from customers they weren't okay with Trello because it's not a swiss company and we deal with a lot of sensitive data. So far, I'm loving Wekan lots.

                                                  Hey there @xet7 I decided to jump on board with this development of Wekan even if I'm just learning it and volunteer my time where I can. I'm a husband and father first. I am trying to get a career in live streaming and/or YouTube to take off but for now I do web development as a job. I'm currently in my first year of my Masters in IT: Software Design & Management so I'm hoping to add more to Wekan in possibly one day a version of Wekan that can be ran on Windows computers that stores information on local server that only these computers can connect to using a Windows program I develop. Anyway, I'm here to help and glad to be here.

                                                      Although, automatic updates using Snap version at Ubuntu is what I mostly use
