Query for Audit log table is error out and unable to do edits to fix issue. Is there a way to stop it? Or is only solution to delete page and re-create? error is popping up faster then I can delete table or try to go to config. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/e/5/e5ba70517a96d52fc282a0599966d392497722ab.png) ---

Close the window. Shift-right-click on it in the designer tree and export the XML. Dig around in that to find the query binding. Cross your fingers and tweak in XML (or delete). Shift-right-click again to get the option to paste back. ---
