I think that would be me :) > > Please see in the script in the original post. > > I'm sorry. You did show it and I forgot it was in that post. No problem so far. But my problem remains :( If I do the script step by step I also do not see the file shrink in the file explorer. The dbfile will only shrink "after" I close the db connection. Even with an explicit "vacuum" command. So the question remain: How to shrink an used dbfile in wal mode? So far the only working solution I found is to disconnect and connect again.
