[Dxspider-support] Corrupted storable string crash

[Dirk Koopman]

The usual cause of this is a corrupted userfile. looking at your trace, 
it could also be the online qsl manager tracker that remembers the qsl 
manager from any comments on a spot that might mention them (like the 
old GOQSL system)

Stop the node,
cd /spider/data,
rm users.v3
perl user_asc
/spider/perl/create_qsl.pl
restart the node.

Let me know if this fixes it.

Usual caveat about RPi: if you are using a Raspberry Pi and an SD card; 
you have been running it for a while; you are getting these errors - 
then your SSD card is likely worn out. Please replace it and then 
consider running a small usb connected hard disk or SSD as the root file 
system.

And can I give a general thumbs up to the RPi4, I am using one (with a 
USB connected SSD) and am very pleased with it. You would only need a 
1MB version to run DXSpider.
