bzr: ERROR: da15e8553fc8b356d836c78b0eff5e65.iix is not an index of type <class 'bzrlib.index.GraphIndex'>

Asked by Erik Heeren

We recently noticed this problem with an older repo on our server. Any action (branch, log -v, ...) will produce it. It's a bare repo, so we can't just copy the files out of it.

The server is running Ubuntu version 9.04.
The bzr version on the server is 1.13.1-1 but the repo was made with an older version: the upgrade to Ubuntu 9.04 and bzr 1.13.1-1 happened between repo creation and the last commit/push on this repo.

I've got a copy of the repo on my laptop (gentoo, bzr 2.4.1) for experimenting purposes.
With this copy, I've tried rebuilding the pack-names file using https://code.launchpad.net/~eric97/bzr/regenerate-pack-names/+merge/49756 , but the file it generates is identical to the original pack-names.

When I do

less da15e8553fc8b356d836c78b0eff5e65.iix

I see:

Which doesn't seem to be nearly enough, compared to less-ing some of the other .iix files in the indices directory.

Best-case scenario would be recovering both the history and the files, but I could settle for just recovering the files, preferably at the state of the last commit.
Understanding what went wrong would be a major bonus, with prevention in mind :-)

We have an existing bug report that results in a similar error, the cause may not be the same though. Getting more info about the cause here would be great.

Hadn't seen that bug yet, wonder how I missed it.

If there's any information I can provide you with, please ask. I'll see if I can attach the relevant stacktrace from my .bzr.log here.

No attachments on questions, it seems.
