Hi everyone.  
A few days ago I created this table:

```auto
CREATE TABLE 'sensor_data' ( 
	index_time TIMESTAMP,
	DT VARCHAR,
	DPB DOUBLE,
	DPH DOUBLE,
	RS DOUBLE,
	HP DOUBLE,
	SPP DOUBLE,
	CH DOUBLE,
	PS1 DOUBLE,
	PS2 DOUBLE,
	PS3 DOUBLE,
	PS4 DOUBLE,
	CIV DOUBLE,
	CDO DOUBLE,
	CDI DOUBLE
) timestamp(index_time) PARTITION BY DAY
DEDUP UPSERT KEYS(index_time);

```

Then I populated it with 242653 rows.

Today when I start this database I read the message:

```auto
2026-04-07T08:47:40.587057Z C i.q.c.p.WriterPool could not open [table=sensor_data~807, thread=35, msg=Unrecoverable storage corruption detected: column version mismatch [table=sensor_data~807, txnVersion=157032, actualFileVersion=156258], errno=0]

```

Even running  
`ALTER TABLE sensor_data RESUME WAL;`  
doesn’t fix it.

How can I solve it?  
Thank you.

Hey @BepTheWolf , did you encounter some sort of failure? Storage died, ran out of disk, power loss etc.?

No, nothing strange.  
I turned off the PC normally and turned it back on today. I’m testing with a MacPro, so I don’t have any power outages and the disk still has 90GB free.

I turned it off after the program inserted the 242653 rows and maybe there were some aborted transactions left?

with the query  
`SELECT * FROM wal_tables() WHERE name='sensor_data';`  
I see

That’s strange, if it wasn’t a hard fault, a corruption is unexpected. Did you perhaps hit open file limits? Mac is notorious for being difficult to raise them.

Perhaps you can find some ‘ E ‘ or ‘ C ‘ errors in the logs? Or feel free to DM them to me to take a look. Definitely want to identify a cause here, this is abnormal behaviour.

Hi,  
If it helps, on April 2nd I loaded the rows in four parts with a test program.  
In the first part, the program used ‘INSERT’ because the table was empty.  
The other three parts used ‘UPDATE’ for existing rows and some ‘INSERT’ for new rows.  
After the test program loaded all the rows into the DB, I shut down the computer.  
It was probably still incrementing ‘writerTnx’.

The log for April 2nd is this:

I tried repeating the operations with a new table, following the same steps, but I no longer encountered any errors.  
It’s probably some special condition.

When you shut down the machine, did QuestDB first log a magic number? If not, it was unlikely to be a safe shutdown. To be absolutely certain, you can use a system-wide `sync` to ensure the pages are flush to disk, or cycle a `CHECKPOINT` (which will run an `fsync` whilst creating the checkpoint).

`When you turned off the machine, did QuestDB record a magic number first?`  
How can I check this?

`Otherwise it would hardly have been a safe arrest.`  
Shutdown was performed normally with the MacBook shutdown procedure.

`To be absolutely sure, you can use a system-wide synchronization to ensure that pages are downloaded to disk, or loop through a CHECKPOINT (which will perform an fsync while creating the checkpoint).`

Assuming we have a system crash, is it possible to recover the database at least up to the last point where it was written consistently?

If you check the server logs, during a safe shutdown, you should see ‘SIGTERM’ received or similar, plus potentially a magic number.

In terms of recovering the state, its tricky. For the type of corruption you’ve reported, its is unlikely, you’d need to restore from a backup. If corruption is confined to WAL, you can usually scrap the backed up WAL and the table will be ok.

Okay, I’ve tried several times, and the result is that when I shut down my PC properly, the insert and update queries have completed successfully and everything appears to be fine, but the writerTnx and sequencerTnx counters are actually misaligned, then my table is corrupted.  
In some cases, the error is “bulk update failed and will be rolled back,” more often “Unrecoverable storage corruption detected: column version mismatch.”

Is there a way to reconstruct the corrupted table from existing files up to the last valid point?

Maybe I solved it. My fault.  
The problem was here.  
In Docker, I had set the data folder to Mac.  
Now I’ve moved it to Docker.

Both APFS and OverlayFS should be ok, but that sounds like it could have been a permissions issue. Fingers crossed its all good going forward, let me know.

Now, in my opinion, it works properly.  
I also installed it on a Red Hat machine and tried various ways to break it, but it seems to work fine.  
I’m continuing to test it.
