Re: [sqlite] sqlite3 database unreadable on Mountain Lion
Hello, thanks for the replies! A sample Mountain-unreadable file is here: http://www.superflexible.com/broken.sql Works fine under Snow Leopard. I get the same results when using my own application as when using /usr/bin/sqlite3. So, we can concentrate on the sqlite3 command line tool. I noticed that with the new sqlite version, I can no longer use the CONSTRAINT keyword. In other words, in a CREATE TABLE script, I had to change this: CONSTRAINT PK_SECTIONS PRIMARY KEY (ID), to this: PRIMARY KEY (ID), And the new sqlite version can't read the old sqlite files. But there may be more to it. And pragma integrity_check reports: Error: malformed database schema (DATA) - near CONSTRAINT: syntax error And a .dump results in an incomplete dump, otherwise it would be easy for me to convert/fix the database. The .dump does not give me any of the contents of the table DATA.

Re: [sqlite] sqlite3 database unreadable on Mountain Lion
Hi, I have a problem with this. Even when I invoke an old sqlite3 executable, Mountain Lion still launches 3.7.12. Apparently Apple prevents starting other versions of it and redirects everything to their current version in /usr/bin. As I wrote earlier, the same thing happened with the sqlite3.dylib. I am positive that I loaded an older library from my code, but Mac OS replaced it with the current one they have. Ever heard of such a thing? And how to work around it? So there's still no solution ...

Re: [sqlite] sqlite3 database unreadable on Mountain Lion
On ML here I can launch my version in /user/local/bin just fine. Maybe because it's newer. Try to start the Snow Leopard version. If you can get that done, I will be thrilled! However I will also try putting it in /usr/local/bin next. Cheers, Tobias ___ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users

What are you doing to 'invoke' ? Put the executable in a folder with your database. cd to that folder. type ./sqlite3 databasename.sqlite Apparently Apple prevents starting other versions of it and redirects everything to their current version in /usr/bin. There really isn't anything like this in OS X. The 'which' command will tell you which version you'll get if you don't specify a folder which sqlite3 if you specify a folder for your executable you get the one you specified. Of course if you have installed DarwinPorts or anything like that you deserve all the confusion you created.
