I don't know what the cause of the problem is.

The message you are getting is a result of defenses against database
corruption described here:

     https://www.sqlite.org/howtocorrupt.html#_multiple_
links_to_the_same_file

Somehow you have set up your system so that you have multiple hard
lines to the same repository database file.


Do you mean hardlinks, or something else?

I'm not sure how you've
done that.  But it can lead to repository database corruption if you
attempt to write to database.  For that reason, Fossil does not allow
you to write.
