    Hello jeremygreene,

    Thank you for the message.

    Please use the following steps to rename the database file so NinjaTrader automatically creates a new one:Reopen NinjaTrader and test if the behavior continues.

    ​If the behavior continues, please use the following steps to send your log and trace files to the support team directly from your NinjaTrader Platform so we may investigate this behavior further:
    • Within NinjaTrader, go to the Control Center > Help > Email Support...
    • To: Set this to "Platform Technical Support"
    • Subject: Copy and paste the Forum URL
    • Attach: Attach a file, picture, or compressed file to share multiple files/pictures
    • Body: Include any other information you would like to share on the situation
    • Make sure 'Log and Trace files' is checked to include the requested files
      • Send the email
    ​Please let us know if we may provide any further assistance.

      I hit this before on a AWS virtual machine when I ran out of disk space. Increasing storage or clearing out files in Documents\NinjaTrader 8\db (But not NinjaTrader.sqlite), avoided this problem.

        Hello everyone. Before getting here I tried to find a solution by searching the net and deleting and reinstalling NT8 again. But I haven't achieved anything.
        It's strange but the program was going fine and suddenly, when starting up, an ERROR pop-up window appears in which the following message appears; "NOT POSSIBLE TO CONNECT TO DB DATABASE DISK IMAGE IS MALFORMED DATABASE DISK IMAGE IS MALFORMED"
        By clicking OK the program closes.
        I have tried deleting and changing the name of the file in the DB folder but I still get the same error.
        Has anyone had the same problem in the past?​
