I have created a backup to have the last two versions of one folder to Azure Blob storage.
Also the restore was working fine. But then I thought what will happen if the PC or the harddisk is defect.
So, I removed the SQLite databases and tried first to restore my folder. This was working fine with --no-local-db if both databases are missing or with --rebuild-missing-database if only one database is missing. But restore does not recreate the local databases.
Therefore, I started the backup commandline again and got this error.

But I didn’t find the server sqlite file and the client sqlite file wasn’t complete.
Then I tried the command list-broken-files, but nothing was listed. Same for the command purge-broken-files
The question is now, how can I recreate the needed sqlite files to get the backup process running again?
