SQLiteException: file is encrypted or is not a database file

Help & Support
1

Hi Marcus, my issue might be related to recent SQLite error posts, however I’m getting a different error message. I wanted to confirm before moving forward with your suggestions in the other thread. I also received an api error message in the web ui, rebooted and now receive the following error. I can follow up with the the db file if needed.

System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteException: file is encrypted or is not a database
file is encrypted or is not a database

at System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteCommand.BuildNextCommand () [0x00000] in :0

[Fatal] ConsoleApp: EPIC FAIL!

Thats definitely not related. Your DB looks to be corrupt, You can restore from the latest backup or attempt to repair it.

If you want to PM me a link to grab it I’ll try to take a look when I get a chance.
