I'll try again:

root@pbx:/var/lib/freeswitch/db# service freeswitch stop

root@pbx:/var/lib/freeswitch/db# rm call_limit.db core.db directory.db fifo.db share_presence.db sofia_reg_*.db

root@pbx:/var/lib/freeswitch/db# ls -l

total 48

Hey! It worked! the DB error isn't there anymore!

Now I can work on the next problem, which is that incoming calls are immediately rejected. That's just me digging through the logs, reading the documentation, and seeing what I messed up when I moved them to the new system.

Make sure the filesystem perms are correct for the user that freeswitch is running as.

It is safe to stop FreeSWITCH, remove the files, and allow FreeSWITCH to recreate them with the correct permissions. The only file that needs to hang around across reboots is the voicemail one which contains the metadata for any voicemails that are still on the system. If you are not using mod_voicemail on a particular FreeSWITCH install, it is also safe to delete.
