Error Writing to cqframe table

Hi All, I've just updated to VARAC 8.6.2 also updated the VARA modem as well.


I now get the following error message in the log;

15:54:21 - Error: Writing to cqframe table:unable to open database file

unable to open database file

Has anybody encountered this? Does anybody know how to fix it?

VarAC tried to access its database file VarAC.db. if its not there or you have permissions error - it will show this error.

Make sure its there and you have permission on the file system.

If you are not a big expert in windows based permission, but the file is there, simply try to run VarAC as administrator. (right click the VarAC.exe -> run as administrator)


Donno the history of your installation and you provided very little information.
