Hi, using Windows 10 on my Acer laptop with RootsMagic 10.
Frequently of late, I get this message re SQLite etc flash up and I can no longer input data, so shut down the program and restart, sometimes I can’t even backup as this error message prevents this.
FYI, no other program on my laptop have this problem. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Do you get an actual SQLite error number, if so what is it? Make sure you are not storing your data in a folder that syncs to a cloud service or something, such as One Drive or Google Drive and make sure you have a recent backup just in case.
Hi and thanks, the SQLite, Error 10, disk 1/0 error. FYI NOT backing up to the cloud, One Drive etc. only to my local drive
In addition sometimes get ;- “runtime error 217@00E37F3A
The SQLite 10 error is a “disk I/O error”, which could be a couple of things.
1. You could have a corrupt database. Go to File>Tools>Database Tools and run all options there in consecutive order after a fresh restart of RM.
2. You could have a program which is locking the RM database keeping RM from being able to access it. This is usually a program which runs in the background and does things like indexing, or backing up of files. Check if you have a program running in the background which may be accessing RM’s data files while RM is using them. Make sure database is not inside a folder syncing to cloud storage like Dropbox, iCloud or OneDrive.
3. It could be an indication there is an issue with your operating system or hard drive. It could indicate your hard drive is failing and is working in a bad sector. You would want your computer specialist to test the hard drive.
