I suspect that since you deleted kadmin/history, you're getting this error
from deep within the kadmin library when it's trying to access the password
history.  That's just a guess, though.  You're getting this message from
kadmin.local, right?

How you recover from this ... well, I have no idea, actually.  Did you
happen to save the old kadmind keytab?
