SQLCE 4 - EF4.1 Internal error: Cannot open the shared memory region

问题

Hi im trying to run my MVC 3 application running SQLCE 4 embedded and EF4.1

i have used the data access methods as described in this tutorial

This works perfectly locally(obviously), but when running it on my hosting i get the below error message. It is a shared hosting enviroment.

Is it an open connection that is the problem? Shouldn't it be handled by the unit of work class that is returning the dbcontext as a singleton throughout the whole application as mentioned in the tutorial?

Any tips on what this might be caused by would be appreciated

This error indicates that the SQL Server Compact database file is located on a shared folder, not a local drive. That will not work.
