Kevin,

The problem should be with the permissions (not ownership) of the
virtusertable database file itself: one of the executable bits is turned
on.

To clear this, take execute permissions off:

chmod -x virtusertable.db

Or directly set the permissions:

chmod 644 virtusertable.db

      -Daniel
