How does this SQLite Error Message Look like?
1288 – SQLITE_READONLY_CANTINIT
Why do you receive this Error in SQLite?
The SQLITE_READONLY_CANTINIT result code originates in the xShmMap method of a VFS to indicate that the shared memory region used by WAL mode exists buts its content is unreliable and unusable by the current process since the current process does not have write permission on the shared memory region. (The shared memory region for WAL mode is normally a file with a “-wal” suffix that is mmapped into the process space. If the current process does not have write permission on that file, then it cannot write into shared memory.)
