DB file is missing in the repo

[Paragkk]

openalgo.db file is not present in the repo. Where can i get the empty db file please

Hi DB will be created when you start the application in your machine for the first time. It is not a good idea and practice to share the DB in the repo

Thanks a lot for your response. It seems the db is not getting created due to some permission issue. I will have to dig further.

Let me know which OS you are trying to Integrate openalgo. Only for Linux it demands permissions.

I am trying on windows 10 itself. Attaching the error log. error.txt

Running the Python script using the full path versus running it from the directory can cause issues, especially with relative paths and imports. Here's why:

1. When you run python3 "c:\Users\parag\PyCodes\AWS codes\openalgo\app.py" from a different directory:

   • Python sets the working directory (os.getcwd()) to the directory you're running the command from
   • This can cause issues with relative paths in your code
   • Module imports might fail if they rely on the Python path being set relative to the project root

2. When you run python3 app.py from the project directory:

   • The working directory is correctly set to your project root
   • Relative imports work as expected
   • File paths resolve correctly relative to the project root

Here's how to fix this:

1. Change to the project directory first, then run the app:

   cd "c:\Users\parag\PyCodes\AWS codes\openalgo"
   python3 app.py
