"Unable to open the database file : "

Question

I am trying to test the ArcGIS map to see if it fits the needs of my app. Unfortunately I have encountered a problem when trying to read a geodatabase created with ArcCatalog or a sample downloaded from the internet. I have tried with a developer licence and Basic license but both return the same error.

The error is:

and it it thrown on line :

Geodatabase geodatabase = await Geodatabase.OpenAsync(@{path}\db.gdb);

StackTrace:

StackTrace"  at RuntimeCoreNet.Interop.HandleException(Boolean retVal)

at Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Data.Geodatabase.OpenAsync(String path)

at SmartAssArcGISWPF.MainWindow.<MyMapView_Loaded>d__0.MoveNext() in....

string

Has anyone encountered the same problem and found a solution?

The licence for Developer is supposed to contain all functionality, is this one with geodatabase not included?

Are you generating a Runtime Geodatabase, or are you trying to open a File Geodatabase? (File geodatabases are not supported)

See https://developers.arcgis.com/net/desktop/guide/create-an-offline-map.htm for more details.
