I am having the same qgis.db error using a Windows Farm environment with
profiles stored on a network drive. It appears to be a problem with the delay
in synchronizing the directory with the server
After getting this error and closing QGIS 3, we find ourselves in the following
situation
1. We open msys.
2. We cd to the parent of the profiles directory.
3. We ls. profiles does not exist.
4. We mkdir foo. That is successful. So we have permissions.
5. We cannot mkdir profiles. That is an error from the file system, because it
thinks profiles exists already.
6. We cannot remove profiles, because the system thinks it is in use by another
program.
Restarting QGIS doesn't work. The only solution we have found is to completely
log the user out of the system, log back in, copy a dummy profile to the
profile location, and start QGIS 3.
This is happening to 1 out of 4 new users on our system, as we move them from
QGIS 2 to QGIS 3. (QGIS 2 never had this problem.)
Since we have 50 users, we are going to each user and doing their first startup
and settings personally, using the dummy profile. This isn't so bad, since it
helps make sure the user's environment is just as they want it, but I would be
happier if the profile problem wasn't there.

Hi everybody,
I have a ubuntu Bionic LTS server with QGIS 3.4 LTR installed
Since the Qgis project I've published connects to local postggis data I
would like to launch Qgis with X forwarding to modify directly the
published project...
The client is debian 9.8 when I try to launch qgis it shows me the import
esttings window, then the splash screen and after that an alert window with
message "ERROR Can Not make qgis.db private copy" the stdout also log the
following
ERROR: auth db directory path could not be created
ERROR: opening of authentication db FAILED
the auth db path is setted in apache. conf for qgis server: tried to set
the same path as environment variable but no change.
seems that after installation I don't have .qgis3 folder
Any suggestion?
Amedeo

There's no .qgis3 anymore - the user profiles are in
~/.local/share/QGIS/QGIS3/profiles
