I would say that unless SQLite is returning that error in unwarranted cases, this is really an application-level error recovery problem. What do you mean by "always continue to fail"? Is this the case even after you have verified that the desired file is accessible? Are you delaying retries at all? If the IOERR return code is truthfully signaling inability to access the file, then if this is an interactive application, you might signal the user to request a retry later. If it's a batch process, you might schedule a retry for later. If there's some alternative way of accessing the database or operating at reduced functionality without it, you might try that. It's hard to be more specific without knowing what kind of application is being developed. ---> Drake Wilson _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
