Hi,

I was manually editing db.xml to put multiple paragraphs in a frame, something i've done dozens of times. but i must have done something wrong, as when I loaded the campaign to check my work i got some warnings (see below), and the campaign was completely utterly blank. Some quick googling suggests there's a db.backup.xml somewhere, but i don't see one in the campaign folder, i'm not sure if that's something people (smartly) do manually before manipulating their files. It's not a huge loss, but would be nice to recover if at all possible (i'm suspecting not).
