SQLite and Android devices

[Ralph DiMola]

The apk is just a zip file with an apk extension. Rename it .zip and you can
look inside. The database can't be opened in the apk(the engine folder). The
apk is read-only. Even if you don't write to it you must still copy it out
to the documents folder and open it there. I never tried to open a DB in the
engine folder on iOS and I'm surprised that it worked.

Hi all,

I am testing one of my apps on an Android device for the first time. I have
never had any problem with the same date base on iOS devices.

Before I start, I checked the LiveCode lesson How to create and use an
SQLite database.

Using LC 7.1.3 in Mac (Maveriks) and Android 5.1.1, I always receive an
error message from Android saying that it can't read my data base or it
can't find a part of my data base.

First of all, I don't know where LC put data base in an Android device and
we can't see inside the APK as we do with an iOS app.

Anyone has an idea of what is going wrong ?
