Description

Hi 👋
I am using realm-kotlin in a KMP project with Android and iOS.
For some time now, we've experienced a large number of crashes on iOS :
Caused by: kotlin.IllegalStateException: [RLM_ERR_FILE_PERMISSION_DENIED]: Failed to open file at path '/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/8709C61B-95B4-48BA-BB32-2BC399D5A03D/Documents/default.realm.lock': Operation not permitted

See bellow the full stacktrace (note that we use crashkIOS to have readable logs on Firebase Crashlytics : https://crashkios.touchlab.co/)

@fngbala-luna If you are using sync, upgrading to Realm Kotlin 1.12.0 might require that you manually delete some files (see https://github.com/realm/realm-kotlin/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#1120-2023-11-02 for details).

Hi, thanks for your answer.
However we do not use the sync feature in our project.

@fngbala-luna If the app is running as device is locked, you might have to relax the permissions.
