    text
    copied!<p>I have website using javascript geolocation api and want it to open in a webview. I set up these permissions in the manifest file: </p> <pre><code>&lt;uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_GPS" /&gt; &lt;uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_ASSISTED_GPS" /&gt; &lt;uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_LOCATION" /&gt; &lt;uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/&gt; &lt;uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/&gt; </code></pre> <p>In my activity, I also set webview settings:</p> <pre><code>webview.getSettings().setDatabaseEnabled(true); webview.getSettings().setDomStorageEnabled(true); webview.getSettings().setGeolocationDatabasePath("/data/data/com.my.app/databases"); webview.getSettings().setGeolocationEnabled(true); </code></pre> <p>And I also handled javascript geolocation dialog:</p> <pre><code>webview.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient(){ @Override public void onGeolocationPermissionsShowPrompt(String origin, GeolocationPermissions.Callback callback) { callback.invoke(origin, true, false); } }); </code></pre> <p>Geolocation itself is working, but I am not able to cache geoposition into the database. It should be doing it by itself into CachedGeoposition.db, but when I start the webview, i get this strange SQLite error:</p> <pre><code>E/SQLiteLog(22653): (14) cannot open file at line 30174 of [00bb9c9ce4] E/SQLiteLog(22653): (14) os_unix.c:30174: (2) open(/CachedGeoposition.db) - D/WebKit (22653): ERROR: D/WebKit (22653): SQLite database failed to load from /CachedGeoposition.db D/WebKit (22653): Cause - unable to open database file D/WebKit (22653): D/WebKit (22653): external/webkit/Source/WebCore/platform/sql/SQLiteDatabase.cp p(71) : bool WebCore::SQLiteDatabase::open(const WTF::String&amp;, bool) </code></pre> <p>When I check existence of CachedGeoposition.db file in File Explorer, it is always there, and permissions of the db are set to -rw-------.</p> <p>Did I miss something in settings what could cause database not to open correctly? I'm new to Android and trying to find solution for 2 days now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.</p>
