Robert >>> It's very good of you to research this. I think the option of getting more debug output exceeds my skill (and perhaps my enthusiasm, too!), especially as... <snip> > The sqlite problem with the db being on a network share is due to > problems locking the db file rather than permissions, and the sqlite > docs say that locking is broken or not implemented in most NFS > implementations... I hadn't come across this, and it's very useful to know. Thanks for the information. > ...but it doesn't say which NFS implementations do or don't work so > it might be worth a try. So I'll take your advice about this and give it a go with nfs. If that doesn't work, I think I'll probably adopt the solution of running FF3 from a profile on a jump drive, which has the incidental advantage of ensuring that you can't try to run two instances of FF3 using the same network profile simultaneously, as a jump drive does for the profile what the 'way key' does for single track working on the railway - only the user that's got the key can proceed. I probably won't try nfs immediately, as I'll have a bit of setting up to do first. But I'll report the outcome here in due course, for anyone who may be interested.
