I have the same problem. I have .sqlite db files, and I wish to read them with sqlite3.exe (under Cygwin x64 on Win 7 x64). I want this to work on both computer A and computer B. (Both have the same Win 7 and Cygwin installed).
But it only works on computer B, not on computer A. I have the SAME .sqlite db file on the desktop on both computers. I run sqlite3 filename from a Cygwin bash shell (under mintty). As soon as I enter a sql command (select * from xxx;) I get the "unable to open database file error". The two computers have fs mounts on one-another. So I can run sqlite3 on computer B, referencing the db file on computer A ... and it works, just like when I reference the local file. But none of this works when running on computer A. (And ... I tried it from a CMD prompt, as suggested above. No dice.) I noticed that the sqlite3.exe file on computer A has a different cksum than the one on computer B. (Seems odd! The Cygwin installer shows the same version on both!) Anyway, I copied the working exe from B over to A. And it doesn't run at all on A. So I uninstalled sqlite on A and reinstalled. Still no go. I'm confuzzled. -- View this message in context: http://sqlite.1065341.n5.nabble.com/An-unable-to-open-database-file-error-that-has-nothing-to-do-with-opening-database-file-tp69199p72906.html Sent from the SQLite mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
