Re: [Monotone-devel] Re: monotone on n800 - mtn: error: sqlite error: file is encrypted or is not a database

[Matthew Welland]

I tested a little more. Monotone works great on the device but gives the 
error listed when run inside scratchbox. Any suggestions as to how to find 
the root cause of the problem in scratchbox? No problems with writing 
to /tmp or the dir where the .db was.
