Pyrogram client starts with error (sqlite)

Question

I have a problem with starting pyrogram Client.

I've created an app in https://my.telegram.org/ and copied creds from there.
Now im starting client with:

from pyrogram import Client


client = Client(
    "occasion",
    api_id=os.environ.get('TG_API_ID'), 
    api_hash=os.environ.get('TG_API_HASH')
)

client.start()
client.send_message('me', 'some_message_text')
client.stop()

And it raises an error at the string client.start()
And error says:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Artur_Epremian\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\code.py", line 90, in runcode
    exec(code, self.locals)

    await self.load_session()

    await self.storage.open()

    self.conn = sqlite3.connect(str(path), timeout=1, check_same_thread=False)
sqlite3.OperationalError: unable to open database file

Can you please help me to find what is a reason?

I bet that at least one of these env vars is empty or just wrong — DeepSpace

what coult it be? All the creds are right. And it ran right without pyrogram with just tg api — artirchique

So my problem was that I did it inside the app (django) before I started a session. So if you see this problem you should start a session manually (from terminal, python console, etc.) with your creds:

client = Client('name', api_id='', api_hash='')
client.start()  # here it will ask you to enter your phone number and confirmation code
client.export_session_string() 

# ->  and here you will get a string, save it in credentials too

client.stop()

And after you saved the session string you can run your app, you just have to pass parameter session_string in Client

client = Client(
    "occasion",
    api_id=os.environ.get('TG_API_ID'), 
    api_hash=os.environ.get('TG_API_HASH'),
    session_string=os.environ.get('TG_SESSION_STRING')
)

start and stop methods are asynchronous. Try using the with statement:

from pyrogram import Client

client = Client(
    "occasion",
    api_id=os.environ.get('TG_API_ID'), 
    api_hash=os.environ.get('TG_API_HASH')
)

with client:
  client.send_message('me', 'some_message_text')
