iOS Driver Build is Broken: SQLITE_CANTOPEN

I’ve tracked the problem down to there not being a Librarys/Keychains/TrustStore.sqlite3 directory in the sim’s data dir, on Travis. Not sure why this would be. But the certificate trust store module then dies with SQLITE_CANTOPEN error that is uncatchable, for some reason.

The temporary solution is probably to quarantine the test on Travis. See https://github.com/appium/appium-ios-driver/pull/201

The most naive, brute force way to fix this is to create the paths/file/table. This is obviously fragile and can break without notice. Is there some way to trigger the simulator to create these files without have to manually recreate a SQLite database/table/schema?

Otherwise, here’s a patch for getting the file created. It goes in appium-ios-simulator. I’m not inclined to submit a PR for this since it’s sooo hacky:
