Do you intend to use SQLite inside the Dropbox folder once you’ve got it working? That’s only safe if only one person is using the database at a time, and you wait for the sync to finish before trying to use the DB on another machine. If you need a networked DBMS, SQLite is generally not what you want, at least not as-stock. There are add-ons and alternatives that work far better for this. Google “SQLite Dropbox”. It’s come up many times before. > On a "Scientific Linux 6.7" (RHEL 6.7) system I did a built then build > install *as a user* and not as root. Looking to create a localized copy > specifically. Try this: $ ./configure --prefix="$HOME/sqlite3" That will allow the “make install” to work without root privileges. The sqlite3 binary would land in $HOME/sqlite3/bin, with that configuration option. You can set the prefix to somewhere under your Dropbox folder if you’re willing to take the risks to data safety that that entails. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
