I had a PTree error, so I'm rebuilding my db from a dump. The import
process seems to take a day or two, so if you're peering with my sks
server, keyserver.brian.minton.name, please be patient. Hopefully, it
will be back online soon.

thanks,
Brian Minton

Hi there,

We have the same problem, database keeps getting corrupt, where can we
download a proper dump from?

ftp://keyserver.mattrude.com/current

No such directory ‘services/keyserver/keydump’.

Greetings,

Thank you for that link. But still resulting in an error, maybe you
(someone else) can help us can solve this problem we keep on getting:

I'm getting the same error using the dump from
https://keys.niif.hu/keydump/ (using normalbuild mode).

I tried using the fastbuild mode, the import finishes successfully
Post by PGP
Failure("remove_from_node: attempt to delete non-existant element from
prefix tree")
So it looks like the dump from keys.niif.hu got corrupted as well...

I will try using the dump from
https://keyserver.mattrude.com/dump/current/

Same here, my database got corrupted around 3 AM UTC on the 5th, which
is about the same time you sent your email. Therefore I wonder if this
could be a bug in sks? I can't see anything interesting in my logs
though.
