Your welcome.

I suspect there's only a couple things that could cause this issue.

Database corruption.
Permissions issue.

Running the application using sudo is a terrible idea, so please don't do that.

Database corruption shouldn't really be an issue, but it can happen sometimes.

Anyway, glad it helped.
