Hi Richard I have enabled error logging as suggested. Is there a way to test this logging. For e.g. I just corrupted the database by modifying the sqlite db using vi and then got the following message:-
"file is encrypted or is not a database" After this error message my process dies(we terminate the process), and I don't see any logs from my callback. Is this callback called before the sqlite3_xxx calls returns , if yes then why I don't see any error messages from the callback ? -Mayank -----Original Message----- From: sqlite-users-boun...@sqlite.org [mailto:sqlite-users-boun...@sqlite.org] On Behalf Of Richard Hipp Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2014 1:05 PM To: General Discussion of SQLite Database Subject: Re: [sqlite] Sometimes when my process restarts, it returns error "database is locked" On Tue, Jul 8, 2014 at 3:58 PM, Mayank Kumar (mayankum) <mayan...@cisco.com> wrote: > Hi All > > We have a process with a single sqlite db and a single connection to > the database from a thread.

I think something else must be going on. Have you enabled logging? See http://www.sqlite.org/errlog.html for details.
