Same error for me on Ubuntu desktop 20.04. chia 1.1.6 It started happening today after I had a power outage during plotting.

I’ve isolated the issue to starting the wallet, as it also appears when running chia start wallet

Any help would be awesome.

Update: I just solved this by deleting everything in .chia/mainnet/wallet/db/ folder

After this, the wallet started up again no problem
