When I added work manager library to android studio and run the app it crashes with this error:

E/SQLiteLog: (14) cannot open file at line 37816 of [c255889bd9]

This is the library i added:

implementation "androidx.work:work-runtime-ktx:2.4.0"

When I remove this library it works again. I don't know if the problem with the device or the app.

I managed to fix this issue by adding this to AndroidManifest.xml:

 <provider
    android:name="androidx.startup.InitializationProvider"
    android:authorities="${applicationId}.androidx-startup"
    android:exported="false"
    tools:node="merge">
    <!-- If you are using androidx.startup to initialize other components -->
    <meta-data
        android:name="androidx.work.WorkManagerInitializer"
        android:value="androidx.startup"
        tools:node="remove" />
 </provider>

I got this from the documentation here: https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/architecture/workmanager/advanced/custom-configuration

The issue was caused by another piece of code, which was wiping application's internal data on the first launch. Wipe was performed kinda in parallel with the WorkManager's internal database creation. Because of that, during initialization WorkManager tried to access the SQLite connection for the already deleted database file and that led to the crash.
