can you delete the paisa.db file (documents > paisa > paisa.db) and try to open the app? if that doesn't work can you share the full error message (or screenshot of the error)

This is a duplicate of https://github.com/ananthakumaran/paisa/issues/154 I just released 0.6.4, can you try that

seems like db_path is empty maybe thats the issue:

did you manually set it to empty? Do you know how it got to empty
