Current Behavior

A sqlite db is copied to a backup file and the backup file is shared. This works. However, when reviewing the Android LogCat is see: Writing exception to parcel java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: reading com.byteowls.capacitor.filesharer.FileSharerProvider uri content://com.xxx.yyy.zzz.filesharer.fileprovider/capfilesharer/myLog-20231227-093441.db from pid=14783, uid=1000 requires the provider be exported, or grantUriPermission() at android.content.ContentProvider.enforceReadPermissionInner(ContentProvider.java:918) at android.content.ContentProvider.semEnforceReadPermission(ContentProvider.java:836) at android.content.ContentProvider$Transport.enforceReadPermission(ContentProvider.java:712) at android.content.ContentProvider$Transport.query(ContentProvider.java:251) at android.content.ContentProviderNative.onTransact(ContentProviderNative.java:107) at android.os.Binder.execTransactInternal(Binder.java:1316) at android.os.Binder.execTransact(Binder.java:1280) 2023-12-27 09:34:43.039 14783-14783 ChooserActivity android:ui W Could not load (content://com.xxx.yyy.zzz.filesharer.fileprovider/capfilesharer/myLog-20231227-093441.db) thumbnail/name for preview.
