Dusk: unlink sqlite file problem

Created on 10 Sep 2017 · 12Comments · Source: laravel/dusk

I used sqlite.

ErrorException: unlink(...\dusk.sqlite): Resource temporarily unavailable

the exception throwed from

    public function refreshDatabaseFile()
    {
        unlink($this->connection->getDatabaseName());

        touch($this->connection->getDatabaseName());
    }

after I comment the unlink line, it works again.
seems touch() can overwrite the existing file
anyone has same issue?

I temporarily fixed this by changing our DatabaseMigrations.php file to use migrate:refresh again instead og migrate:fresh. No permanent fix found yet, though.

by the way, the issue occurs on Windows10. macOS seems not have this problem

@xralphack Yes. My mac is not with me, but if I remember correctly, Windows only (I'm on 7), Mac is fine. I am running homestead on both Mac and Windows.

@AdamEsterle I run laravel on both platform by docker, so may be platform specific problem

Me to got this error in my local working environment.
I just close the my SQLite browser.
Then command executed as expected.
It seems, the issue was SQLite browser was locking the database file.
