If your database is Read-Only then there is no way the program can have write-access to it. Ruby requires write-access to the database so that it can function properly.

To resolve the problem simply set Read-Only to off by doing the following:

1. Go to the folder where you installed Ruby and select all files in that folder.
2. Right-click on any file and select "Properties" from the pop-up menu.
3. When the window appears go to the "General" tab.
4. Make sure that "Read-Only" at the bottom is unchecked.
5. If your database (the file with the RBY extension) resides somewhere else then follow the same steps for that file.

Cheers,
