I got a PHP execution timeout error (according to the Apache log) and now I am not able to edit or add a view.

I have only one new view as this is some isolated module development. I can execute the view via its path, and I can export it, but trying to edit it gives me a 404 error. There is no other message appearing the error log file.

Same thing happens if I try to add a new view.

I cam provide a database dump if someone is interested, otherwise is it just best to re-install Views. I can imagine for some people that would mean alot of work lost.

mh this is hard to answer, this could be caused by nearly everything.

did you perhaps wrote some custom code, added some modules?

We haven't changed anything on Views itself. I dumped the database for reference
and then disabled and enabled Views again.

Nice thing was that the view I had been working on was still there. When I went to edit it, it
informed that it was locked and asked if I wanted to break the lock.

As far as I can tell the view itself is perfectly fine. So if it wasn't actually corrupted then something
to do with the lock?

If its just the lock, break the lock. This happens if you got another session id, without saving/canceling the view.

In case anyone else has this problem, I found that clearing my cache fixed this issue. I could not edit any of my views. It just told me "Page not found" when I clicked the edit button.
