SQLITE_BUSY: database is locked

Troubleshooting
1

Hi,
After a bug in Tropy (by chance, I merged all of my images and when I tried to split them up, Tropy didn’t respond anymore), I closed the software and when I tried to reopen it, it displays the following message : “SQLITE_BUSY: database is locked”.

I’ve had the same trouble one year ago, it seemed to be linked with the fact that my file was connected to a cloud storage. But nowadays, my mother file is no longer linked to this cloud, only a copy that I regularly update.

Can you help me get my file back please ?

Thanks in advance !

The message indicates that there is still a connection to the database file open. Is it possible that you still have the previous project window open? In any case, if you make sure to completely quit Tropy and this message still shows up when you reopen the project, could you close Tropy again and then share the .tpy file with us? Also, if there are any similarly named journal/wal/shm files, we’d need those as well.
