Local fix

• An alternate way to check for project corruption would be to
  use SyncProject.
  $ /opt/IBM/InformationServer/ASBNode/bin/SyncProject.sh -ISHost
  domain:port -ISUser user -ISPassword password -DSHost
  engine:port -Project project -Report

• This issue will be addressed in a future release.
