Hi George,
BDB XML support does not suggest us to delete any file. It's nice if
that works. I still recommend you to rebuild your database from scratch
as suggested below, just in case the "fixed" database may still contain
some bad state that may go back and haunt us later.
Steve.

Thanks Steve,
I got it fixed per Traian's suggestion.
I think I need to learn more about BDB!
I appreciate the help.
