Are checking the database on the Kobo device? That looks like the message it displays. If so, it might be fixable. Take a copy of the database just in case. Then use the compress function in the Kobo Utilities. That runs the SQLite VACUUM command. And that basically dumps the database out and reloads it. I think that will work. If it doesn't, you will need to restore a backup.
