My project parameters are not being substituted in the templates.

Other possible errors

I see the `database malformed` error on my experiment log.

Explanation: The latest version of autosubmit uses a database to efficiently track changes in the jobs of your experiment. It might happen that this small database gets corrupted.

Solution: run autosubmit dbfix expid where expid is the identifier of your experiment. This function will rebuild the database saving as much information as possible (usually all of it).

The pkl file of my experiment is empty but there is a job_list_%expid%_backup.pkl file that seems to be the real one.

Solution: run autosubmit pklfix expid, it will restore the backup file if possible.
