SQLite database does not grow on Android
----------------------------------------
Key: CB-363
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-363
Project: Apache Callback
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Android
Affects Versions: 1.4.0, 1.3.0, 1.5.0
Environment: Android Simulator,
Android 2.2+
PhoneGap (any version)
Reporter: Urs Zimmermann
Assignee: Joe Bowser
Priority: Blocker
Fix For: 1.6.0
<b>Description</b<
If I create a database with the PhoneGap API (1.3.0 or higher) I can set an
initial size. If I insert data, the size of the database file should grow if
there is not enough space for all the inserted data. This is not working
properly on Android, and I will get the following error:
error.code: 4
error.message: there was not enough remaining storage space, or the storage
quota was reached and the user declined to allow more space
When I close the app (kill the process) and reopen it, the database file is
grown by ~1MB and I can insert data up to that size.
I tried inserting all of the data in one single transaction, or with every
single insert being one transaction, the result is the same. Changing the
database size after creation has no effect.
<b>Steps to Reproduce</b>
Create a Database with the phonegap API using
var db = window.openDatabase("test", "1.0", "Test DB", 200000);
200000 being the size of the database, as used in the (former) API examples.
<b>Expected Results</b>
The database is created and I can read from and write to.
The size of the database file should grow, so all the data can get inserted.
<b>Actual Results</b>
The database is created and I can read from and write to.
When I insert data, the initial size seems to be the upper limit for the size
of the db (filesize of the .db file)
When this size is reached and I try to insert data, phonegap aborts with the
error described above.
This only happens on Android, device or simulator
For iOS the database seems to grow "on the fly"
