Repair

How to fix it

  1. 1

    Inspect filename and compare its data rows.

  2. 2

    Combine the correct information into the one required record, or remove an accidental duplicate. Keep separate agencies in agency.txt, where multiple records are supported.

  3. 3
    Check the result

    After a repair, rebuild the archive and validate it again. Confirm that the affected records are correct and that no new related notices appeared. A reviewed warning or informational notice may remain when it describes intentional, supported data.
