[Gramps-bugs] Repeatable error adding Database Difference Report to a Book

[Martnal <gr...@ma...>]

My first bug report, so apologies if I am doing it wrongly.

I am a new user, but with wide IT experience.  I have been trying to add
different reports to create a book, but was always getting the following
error message and eventually I gave up.

"Data.gramps could not be opened.  Errno 2 No such file or directory
'Data.gramps'."

Today I have now isolated this error.  If I add the 'Database Difference
Report', on its own or with other selections, I get the error message as
soon as I try to run the process and overwrite the existing file.

I am then unable to report the error within GRAMPS , hence this posting.  I
then exit GRAMPS and whgen I restart I have a locked database, which I can
only clear by loading my test database first.  I can provide a screen shot
of the error message, but can't see how to attach it here.

I am using Windows 10 and :
