any ideas?

I had the same problem with mine on OSX , here's a quote of how to solve if you have the blockchain just rename your MintCoin folder in %Application Data% and let the MintCoin app create a new one , then quit , drop your blockchain & wallet.dat file into the new one and start MintCoin again , it should be almost synched
to the last , taking only some minutes to get fully updated again

I fixed some days ago my somehow corrupted and completely non working wallet on MAC OSX by downloading the latest version again ;
backup your wallet.dat , it is in /Users/»Your Username«/Library/Application Support/MintCoin/ before you fiddle around .

I renamed my MintCoin Folder appending to its name anything ,
installed the latest wallet app version anew , started it up ,
and quit it while it was starting to resynch the blockchain from scratch .
At that point , the MintCoin Folder was recreated anew and I only had to
drop the contents in Bootstrap.dat into that fresh MintCoin Folder
- it took the Wallet only a few minutes to synch up fully to the last few transactions on the public blockchain .
Lastly , drop the latest backup of your wallet.dat into the new MintCoin folder and you are good to Ball .

I don't think it is blockchain related but some db file gets corrupted as the error message indicates ; it should be possible to reuse a recently
downloaded or actualised blockchain that worked again . Maybe someone can clarify where the error occurs and hopefully fix the annoyance .
