Known issues#
Important
As Anchor is in alpha, it is also possible to get into unrecoverable states due to database corruption and not all edge cases are handled by Anchor yet. I recommend installing pgAdmin so that you delete/drop databases as necessary for corpora. Once a corpus database is dropped, then restarting Anchor will trigger loading it from scratch (if the “Autoload last used corpus” option is enabled in Configuring general options)
