That error message isn't necessarily a problem.  However, you should
get output like:

Ubik Header
   Magic           = 0x354545
   Size            = 0
   Version.epoch   = 1194566044
   Version.counter = 13041
Ubik header size is 0 (should be 64)
Database has 2384 entries

Additionally, you should see a messages about

Checking name hash table

Checking id hash table

Checking entry chains

Checking free list

Checking orphans list

Checking for unreferenced entries

Additionally, if you run with the -entries option specified, it will
dump out your database.  You can then use that to re-create your
contents.  Some scripting of that output would be required.
