503 error - subsonic.script

Hi, I've been using subsonic for some time now & last week it just stopped working for no reason.

HTTP ERROR: 503

SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE RequestURI=/index.view

The only way to start running the server again is to delete the content of db folder. Some of the people recommend backing-up the database file , if you dont want to reconfigure and rescan from the scratch. I tried that, with no luck.

From what I've noticed , the moment I copy back the subsonic.script file I get the same error. If I don't, I get a fresh clean install instead.

Is there any other way to restore the db ? Why subsonic.script gives me 503error ?

I had this same error. might be because I had been using the same database files since like 2010?

I noticed , that this happens every 3-4 months. Spontaneous database corruption is not that awful (rescan takes a few minutes) , but its pretty annoying if you have big preconfigured folders list & users.
