Unable to open database (sqlite) in asp.net mvc3 app using spring.net

问题

I am writing an asp.net mvc3 web application. I want to use a sqlite database. Unfortunatly I get an SqliteException saying "unable to open database".

Spring-Version: 1.3.2

NHibernate-Version: 3.2

DbProvider/Connectionstring:

<db:provider id="employeesDbProvider"
           provider="SQLite-1.0.72"
           connectionString="Data Source=.\Database\Employees.db3;Version=3;">
</db:provider>

Stacktrace:

bei System.Data.SQLite.SQLite3.Open(String strFilename, SQLiteOpenFlagsEnum flags, Int32 maxPoolSize, Boolean usePool) in c:\dev\sqlite\dotnet\System.Data.SQLite\SQLite3.cs:Zeile 239.
bei System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteConnection.Open() in c:\dev\sqlite\dotnet\System.Data.SQLite\SQLiteConnection.cs:Zeile 1022.
bei NHibernate.Connection.DriverConnectionProvider.GetConnection()

I even tried setting the DataSource to an absolut path (C:\temp\database\Employees.db3) but the same SqLiteException is thrown.

Update:

Stacktrace shown on error page:

回答1:

I did a quick test with SQLite, Spring.Net and it fails with the same error, however when I used slashes instead of backslashes in the connection string it magically starts to work.

<db:provider id="employeesDbProvider" 
    provider="SQLite-1.0.72"
    connectionString="Data Source=c:/temp/Database/Sample.db3;Version=3;">
</db:provider>

Edit: I tested a bit further to find out where the file is stored if I use the dot prefix e.g. ./Employees.db3. In IISExpress it is stored in C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS Express most likely not what you did expect.

In IIS7 it simply fails with the Unable to open the database file error, ihmo because it tries to write to the Temporary ASP.NET Files folder.

The safest bet is to use

<db:provider id="employeesDbProvider" 
    provider="SQLite-1.0.72"
    connectionString="Data Source=|DataDirectory|Sample.db3;Version=3;">
</db:provider>

Wich is the App_Data folder of your MVC application.

I used SQLite 1.0.80.0 for my tests. Keep in mind that SQLite does not create the directory and needs ACL write rights.
