Hi a random error occurred today when I tried to run my Meteor apps. I tried all the meteor commands such as meteor update, meteor, meteor create newApp, etc. Every time the errors says : SQLITE_CANTOPEN: unable to open database file. I tried the solution by changing ownership of the file but it still doesn’t work: sudo chown -R whales ~/.meteor.
So I decided to just uninstall meteor and reinstall it. However when I uninstalled it by running the two commands:
rm -rf ~/.meteor/
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/meteor
Both commands ran into the problem of can’t remove read only file system.
It’s linux Ubuntu. Sorry should have mentioned that. I am not sure I understand the second question. But I tried to navigate into /usr/loca/bin and this is what it looks like:
total 241000
236716 -rw-rw-r-- 1 whales whales 242393088 Aug 18 13:25 packages.data.db
32 -rw-rw-r-- 1 whales whales 32768 Aug 19 20:41 packages.data.db-shm
4252 -rw-rw-r-- 1 whales whales 4353424 Aug 19 20:41 packages.data.db-wal
Also for installation, is it in the root directory? When I first installed it, i simply just used the curl https://install.meteor.com/ | sh from the guide. So I don’t know why it would be in root.
I tried changing file permissions with “sudo chmod g+w .meteor” but it won’t work. So I tried "sudo mount -o remount,rw ‘.meteor’ " and it says
mount: /home/whales/.meteor not mounted or bad options.
Everything was working fine before today. I just woke up this morning and tried to work on my app and somehow it won’t work anymore.
