Hi
Never saw that before, at a customer.
How do I fix this?
Thanks

Never saw that either.
Their catalog is being corrupted by some hardware fault. Uzip the most recent cartalog backup and load that to test (actually make a copy of it to be on the safe side).
Then find out what hardware problem has caused the corruption.

They are working on a local catalog with the photo on a Synology NAS. The catalog itself is locally located in a Synology Teamfolder that is also synced to the Synology once finished working.
I'm having the same setup myself, with Windows though.

I bet this is All of the problem. Something on the NAS > Team folder has corrupted the catalog file.
Simple fact is the LrC catalog was never intended to be used with any type of Networked device.

From Mac/PC/Lightroom view, this is an absolutely normal local folder.
It's the same as if I would make a copy manually to an external/NAS drive, except that it is done automatically.
However, I also suspect that something around that synchronization caused the error - probably user ...
I'm using this setup with no issues so far. The only important thing is not to try to open a catalog right after starting the PC before syncronization has finished, if syncronization is needed at all.
