dasht : Error: file is encrypted or is not a database

[netei]

After installing the Javascript docset ( dasht-docsets-install javascript)

I get the following error any time I run dasht (the error shows during 20ms, than my browser is launched as expected, but nothing in the Javascript docset can be loaded).

Do you know how I could inspect this ?

Sounds like the docset archive was partially downloaded, extracted, or corrupted. I suggest that you remove and re-install the docset. If you want to debug further, you can inspect the Javascript docset's extracted SQLite3 database at .local/share/dasht/docsets/JavaScript.docset/Contents/Resources/docSet.dsidx In particular, try listing the names of all tables inside the database: $ sqlite3 PATH_TO_THE_DATABASE_FILE ".tables" You should see something like this: ZAPILANGUAGE ZPARAMETER Z_3DEPRECATEDININVERSE ZCONTAINER ZRETURNVALUE Z_3INTRODUCEDININVERSE ZDISTRIBUTIONVERSION ZTOKEN Z_3REMOVEDAFTERINVERSE ZDOCSET ZTOKENGROUP Z_8RELATEDDOCSINVERSE ZDOWNLOADABLEFILE ZTOKENMETAINFORMATION Z_8RELATEDNODESINVERSE ZFILEPATH ZTOKENTYPE Z_8RELATEDSCINVERSE ZHEADER Z_14RELATEDGROUPS Z_METADATA ZNODE Z_14RELATEDTOKENSINVERSE Z_MODELCACHE ZNODEURL Z_1NODES Z_PRIMARYKEY ZNODEUUID Z_2ADOPTEDBY ZORDEREDSUBNODE Z_2SUBCLASSEDBY Alternatively, you can enable shell script tracing by appending "x" to the very first line of the dasht-query-exec script, as follows: #!/bin/sh -ex That prints all commands that were run until the point of failure.

sqlite3 ~/.local/share/dasht/docsets/JavaScript.docset/Contents/Resources/docSet.dsidx ".tables"

gives :

Error: file is encrypted or is not a database

Do you know where I can contact the person that uploaded that docset, to tell him that it is corrupted ?

The problem seems more likely to be on your system: did you try removing and re-installing that docset?

Yes I tried to remove the docset and install it again.

The size of the file is 339968 bytes

Did you run dasht-docsets-remove -f "^javascript$" to remove it?
Or did you manually delete the extracted docset (which isn't enough)?

Try running these commands to make sure it's reinstalled properly:

dasht-docsets-remove -f "^javascript$"
dasht-docsets-install -f "^javascript$"

The size of the file is 339968 bytes

It's larger (1593344 bytes) and newer (Apr 14 10:13) on my system.

Indeed, it seems fixed now. You can close it now
