| Maybe you weren't closing it correctly, so it worked the first time you updated the database but any subsequent call failed because the first one was still around. That's usually a danger with opening it every time.
(besides, you don't really need to, and in fact it's arguably much more efficient to open it only once, as Whiteknight suggested) |
