How do you get the path to the db? Show your code for opening the db that is failing.

HI

Look at the SGLiteBooks sample code for an example that works. Obviously you're either missing the header file or the library from your project.

It worked on simulator but not the device? I used to face this problem before. Probably the document directory doesn't end with the "/" character. Check to append "/" to end of the document directory before joining with the DB file name.

Something like this:

//Get the first path in the array.
	NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
	
	if (![documentsDirectory hasSuffix:@"/"]) {
		documentsDirectory = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingString:@"/"];
	}
	
	//Create the complete path to the database file.
	NSString *databasePath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingString:DB_FILENAME];

Something like this: ...code snipped...

Whilst I have no doubt that would work you would be much better using the provided NSString path utilities that do all the work for you. I'd recommend stringByAppendingPathComponent: which automatically deals with missing / characters.

One other thing: the iPhone file system is case sensitive but the Mac file system is case insensitive. Code that works on the simulator will fail on the device if the case isn't correct.
