[Gramps-bugs] Gramps 2.1.95 - Unable to access database

[Undefined U. <noh...@sb...>]

User Information:
===================

You make it so easy....

No problem with Gramps 2.1.95 until I did a complete re-install of my OS 
(tried Mandriva 2007 RC1, proved to be too much of a beta, went back to 
Mandriva 2006.)

My Gramps data is maintained on a second HD.  When I fired up Gramps 
received error message to effect that it could not access the file. It 
did not give the "Gramps has experienced an error" message however.  I 
checked my file(s) and found the permisssions were incorrect so changed 
them.

Re-running Gramps resulted in the error message "Gramps has experienced 
an error".

Messing around, I had an old gramps db with the .gramps extension.  This 
loaded without problem, but of course, changed the file to a .grdb file 
upon exit.  Was unable to access this file on retry.

Generally speaking over the years have gone through this drill several 
(many?) times without a problem with Gramps.

It is probably something that I have failed to do, but would appreciate 
your assistance it determining just what is going on here.


Thanks,
