The database duplicates its size when yum rebuild metadata task is run

[yasser583]

As I try to rebuild the metadata for a yum repository using the provided task, the db size duplicates, it went from some gigabytes and now is on about 200.
Please your help.

I see this error in the logs:

Also, when there's an error, the rebuild metadata task vanishes from the tasks list.
I'm using Nexus version 3.71.0-06.
Thank you.
