Tito,

Thanks for that. I've had a look but it doesn't really help. The two main
questions are:


1.)     Why do I need a separate sqlite pointer for each thread, if I am
protecting access to it?

Honestly, I don't know. I've followed directions as suggested here: http://www.sqlite.org/faq.html#q8 and it's been fine all along.


2.)     Even aside from this, I am using multiple threads to access the
database, each opens it when it needs it, and this is protected by a
critical section, so I have a separate pointer per thread and only one
thread is accessing the DB at a time.

Just a question/suggestion: instead of swimming against the current, why not going with the flow? What's wrong with keeping a sqlite structure per thread? It'll simply things quite a bit...


Why do I get "Can't open database"
error? Is this something to do with the filesystem locking? Perhaps sleeping
for a few milliseconds might help?

My first question to you: what OS are we talking about? Are you placing the db file on a NFS volume? There are some issues with locking in some OSs. Please elaborate a bit more about the kind of environment you're working on.


Regards,
