Error code 8 indicates the database file is read-only, but it should be writable for a connection to succeed.  
Go to your project folder, look into the `.urc` directory for a `.sqlite` file and make sure it doesn’t have any readonly attribute set (on either any of the files there or the `.urc` folder).
