So the catalog is broken. Bad, but you should be able to correct it...

I don't know if this is necessary or useful, but that might have caused
the problems.

Have you tried the dbcheck program to repair the database?
I suggest to make sure that bacula is not running when you modify the

Be aware that the database check ca take very long.

You could also start with a new, completely empty catalog, and reinsert
your existing volumes using bscan.

result in some difficulties with you bacula setup.
