SQLAlchemy database is locked error

[djoshea]

Not sure if I have my configuration right, but I'm seeing the stack trace below. Not sure if this is relevant, but I'm on a shared server and have installed everything I needed (including boto and sqlalchemy with pip install --user).

sqlalchemy.exc.OperationalError: (sqlite3.OperationalError) database is locked [SQL: u'PRAGMA table_info("archive")']

my config looks like this:

[ djoshea@index ~ ]: cat .boto
[Credentials]
aws_access_key_id = ...
aws_secret_access_key = ...

[s3]
calling_format = boto.s3.connection.OrdinaryCallingFormat
host = s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com

[djoshea]

Just to note, from python directly this works:

import boto.glacier
c = boto.glacier.connect_to_region("us-west-1")
c.list_vaults()

Calling glacier as

glacier --region us-west-1 vault list

I still get the database is locked error.
