Kobocat doesn't work on Android 10

[gamaly]

I’m going to ask a raise an issue about KoboCollect that may be better suited for the ODK forum, but I’m going to enter it here after testing ODK Collect and GeoODK Collect on the same Android Device.

Summary:

I recently upgraded my Pixel 3 to Android 10, and tried to install Kobo Collect. I received the following error: “unknown error(code 14 SQLITE_CANTOPEN): Could not open database.” I also received an error about not being able to create new folders.

Additional Context

I subsequently installed both ODK Collect and GeoODK Collect, both of which worked just fine. Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks!

I uninstall both, and manually delete the /odk/ folder from memory, and then reinstall KoBo Collect only (I Allow when prompted "Allow KoBoCollect to access photos and media on your device?")...

...and I get this error on open:

Out of curiosity, I manually create the /odk/ folder using a file manager app, and reopen KoBo Collect, and the error message changes to this:

This is where the file manager is accessing:

This is on Pixel 3a, Android 10, Build number QQ1A.191205.011
ODK Collect v1.25.1 works without issue.

Thanks @danbjoseph for the details. A new build is planned on our end to fix this issue.
