We're sorry, the lightroom library is corrupt and cannot be used.

Has anyone seen this message.
I just downloaded lightroom, installed it and get this message when I try to open the program. I have reinstalled multiple times to different drives with the same problem. Beta version has been deleted.
Any help greatly appreciated
Thanks

Here's my update: Moving the existing library from its current location allowed LR 1.0 to open normally (no Ctrl + click necessary)--except it starts with a dialog stating that it doesn't see a library, and gives you an option to create a new one or browse for an existing one. Since I don't have 17 hrs. to mess around, I said to create a new one instead of browsing to the existing one I just moved, although I'm interested to know whether browsing to the existing library would (a) merely vault you into the cursed "upgrade" process from hell and end up with the library is corrupt message, or (b) perform a real integration of the existing library. (I'll let you know when I develop a free day and the patience of Job to experiment.)
OK, now I'm in LR, with no galleries (or collections or whatever they're called). I select Import and cruise to a Windows folder that has RAW files, corresponding .xmp files from LR beta, and some .psd and .jpg files I previously created. The next irritation is that when you find the folder you want, there's no Select This Folder option; instead, you have to Ctrl + a to select the entire folder contents--and then the previously grayed-out Selected Files (or Selection or something like that) is available.
Also, and here's the REALLY irritating part, there's a dropdown to select what types of files you want to select, but the only option is something like Supported Files. Even though the folder I'm now looking at contains .xmp files that I can see in Windows Exporer, apparently they are not "Supported Files," because they're not now visible to select for the Import.
When I hit OK or Open or whatever the "let's get going" button is, you come to a dialog similar to LR beta, where you can enter keywords, select from saved metadata templates--YIPEE, my LR beta copyright template is there--and a couple of other things.
When you hit OK (or whatever) again, the import finally occurs. Now, I see all the RAW files, but from a quick glance, I don't see the .psd and .jpg files I created from some of those RAW images and stored in this folder. Also, it doesn't appear that any of the .xmp files tagged along for the ride, because if I now "Develop" a RAW image that I previously Developed in LR beta, only the RAW image shows--none of the tonality adjustments, crop outline, etc.
Finally, I went to the folder in Windows Explorer and just clicked on one of the .xmp files, to see whether it would open up the related RAW image in Developer Mode, with the beta-edits information indicated. No such luck: A dialog blooms that asks which program to use to open the .xmp file. If you select LR, it says the [corresponding] photo is already in LR and will not be imported.
Bottom line: The procedure I long-windedly described above does not recover your beta edits.
Any other ideas for how to accomplish that? Any why would LR 1 go backwards and not give you an option of just importing the entire folder you're looking at, instead of forcing you to Ctrl + a the contents and only then clicking OK or Open?

Lightroom keeps crashing now the library is corrupt and cannot be used - any idea why?

Lightroom is shutting itself down almost every 20 minutes. I have re-opened it and kept working then it happens again. I have re-started the PC and that helps but their seems to be something wrong. Have around 4000 photos in folders and then sub-folders. Any ideas? Have a two day old back-up that I can start using again on though I would love a way to restore / repair the corrupt version, which is held in a "CorruptDBs" folder.
Have been using Lightroom on a laptop for months without issue, now I have it on new PC, and this problem arises though only since the large number of images were imported (approx 4000).
Any suggestions welcome

I can't say why LR is crashing off hand, but I may be able to help out with the corrupt database:

The lightroom library is corrupt

hi,
i use lightroom very often and my problem is it says me to backup my library so when i do so after that it checks whether my library is alright then it shows a message saying that "we'r sorry the lightroom library is corrupt and cannot be used" and lightroom closes what shall i do but then there is an option SKIP and then the lightroom opens with my previous library but then i have about 60 pictures in there and all worked upon so i dont want to loose the work on them anytime so how may i correct my library and i also wanted to know how can i make one more library thanks for any help

I'm experiencing similar problems...
My library works fine in the latest beta, but when I try to start the trial version of the official 1.0 release, it wants to check the integrity of my database/library. It then finds out it is broken and turns off.
If I choose to not test the integrity, it crashes after a while when converting the database.
Since I've a backup, I can still, with no problems, run the beta.
But I'ld like to upgrade, but there seems to be no way of exporting my images together with the captions and the keywords :( Even if there are ways of exporting and importing it with develope settings.
Does anyone know where the problem might lie? Or if there is any way to, in the beta, "rebuild" the library/database..?
Thanks a lot in advance,
BR

ERROR: The cabinet file 'Sql.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used

As the title indicates, I'm having this error during installation. It occurs when I try to install
the "Management Studio" part of the program. I've tried a bunch of things like
copying to hard drive and installing, but to no avail. To isolate the problem, i've even tried removing Reporting services, since at the time of failure it seems to be trying to install/configure the Microsoft.Reporting Services dll.
Additionally, I have SQL Express installed (installed it separately, not as part of the SQL 2005 DVD), VS 2005, .NET Framework 2.0, SQL Management Studio Express CTP. Could the Management Studio Express be causing a problem?
Please note:
Although the error is about missing / corrupt Sql.cab, I have searched the entire dvd for the said file, but there is no file called Sql.cab on the dvd. Am I missing something?
Any solution would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

Reading though the many Google hits going way back AD-2000/AD-2006/AD-2011/AD-2014 for various installs including SQLserver_2008/2012 etc
I noted that in the main there were x2 common themes.
1. Problem with corruption the original download.
--- Although I had not run the download checksum
--- I had previously just installed SQLServer2014_Developer successfully, so at the minute, I was confident downloads were ok.
--- Many hits mentioned this 'Sql.cab' file and 90% of the install had been successfull -
--- I figured the chances of us all having corruption of this one files were agaianst the odds and
---   probably re-downloading it would not fix this - but I kicked a re-download off anyhow .
While it was running ...
2. Network issue when installing - some of the hits asked if could be related to Virtual drives.
--- This struck a chord
--- I had downloaded the SQLServer2014 .iso to my host PC and then copied it onto one OneDrive so I could access it within the VirtualBox_Windows_10.
--- From within the VirtualBox_Windows_10 I had then used SetupVirtualCloneDrive5450.exe to mount the OneDrive SQLServer2014 .iso and then autorun the install.
What worked for me ...
--- I decided to
--- 1. Copy the same SQLServer2014 .iso that had failed to install x2 from OneDrive to the c:\ root of the VirtualBox_Windows_10.
--- 2. Remount the same SQLServer2014 .iso from c:\ again using SetupVirtualCloneDrive5450.exe.
--- 3. Re-run the SQLServer2014 install using the repair mode.
This time the [Maintenance] [Repair] install completed with all elements showing installed successfully.
Hope this helps

Error: the cabinet file required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used.

Hi, ive recently just built a brand new computer and purchased windows 7 64 bit. the system runs fine except for the fact that i cannot install any games (these include command and conquer 4, red alert 3 and sims 3. i go to install and partway through it stops with a message saying:
"the cabinet file 'name.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used. this could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD ROM, or a problem with this package."
At first i suspectd a faulty cd rom drive, but the same thing happend wen i tried it with another drive. i know the disks are fine because theyr new. iv searced online and tried things such as disabling the antivirus, going into command prompt and deleting the .....\SQMClient\DisabledSessions as administrator and anything else that was recommended, but it still cant seem to like cabinet files (btw when the installation stops it doesnt always stop on the same .cab as a previous attempt, sometimes it gets further through the installation than others). they install fine on other computes with windows 7 64bit.
Any help is appreciated! Thanx

The certificate is not valid and cannot be used to verify the identity of this website

Question posted in Stack Overflow too: java - How to solve "The certificate is not valid and cannot be used to verify the identity of this website" error? - St…
The question is, How to solve "The certificate is not valid and cannot be used to verify the identity of this website" error?.
Here are the details:
I have a signed applet that has been working fine, until I updated Java to 8u25 (1.8.0_25-b18). Now, the application shows an alert message "Do you want to continue? The connection to this website is untrusted". There is a note in this message too, "The certificate is not valid and cannot be used to verify the identity of this website".
The applet is loaded without problems. But when the user tries to use a specific function of that application, the warning message is displayed.
I've checked the java console when this happens, and this warning message is displayed right after these lines:
security: Obtain certificate collection in SSL Root CA certificate store
security: Invalid certificate from HTTPS server
network: Cache entry not found [url: https://sub.domain.net:9876, version: null]
The application is downloaded from a different domain, say "https://app.domain.net/ .....", so no jars are downloaded from "https://sub.domain.net:9876 ", but the applet connects to "https://sub.domain.net:9876 " to send/receive data.
The applet is signed correctly, and so far, it meets all the security requirements according to Java. This issue seems to happen when the application tries to connect internally with an HTTPS url like https://sub.domain.net:9876. That sites' SSL certificate is valid, issued by GoDaddy and has not expired.
Again, this started to happen after updating my JRE to 8u25. I've tested adding the offending URL to Java security exception list, with no success.
Here are a few screenshot of this problem:
This is the warning message displayed:

For what it's worth we discovered what the issue was. When we installed the new certificates onto our servers we also discovered that you have to install the certificates of all intermediate servers listed in your certificate. This mean that all URLs listed on your certificate, have to have the intermediate certificate for the certificate authority installed. This also includes all the Alt Names of your domains, even if they do not use the applet.

Then I tried (again) to install iTunes with the exact same result. I thought everything macintosh/apple was supposed to be just wonderful, bring about world peace, etc. Grrrrr....

HT201272 Having a bad day my iTunes library got corrupted and my back up disk has failed how can I restore my purchases from the iTunes store

Having a bad day my iTunes library got corrupted and my back up disk has failed how can I restore my purchases from the iTunes store? When I try it tells me the pruchases have already been downloaded to this computer.

Does your purchased rmusic appears under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) ? If they do and you don't have the cloud symbol against them so as to re-download them, then do you still have the entries for them in your library i.e. where you would normally click on them to play them ? If you do then try deleting them from there (iTunes will be seeing them and assuming that you still have them somewhere) and they should then get the cloud symbol for re-downloading in the Purchased link.
If you aren't in a country where music can be re-downloaded then you could try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page,

We're sorry, the lightroom library is corrupt and cannot be used.
