title: Cannot create file in databases folder
body: <p>I am trying to copy a ready made sqlite v3 database from my assets folder into the /databases folder of my app. But I get a java runtime exception.</p>
  
  <pre><code>private const string DB_PATH = "/data/com.MyApp/databases/dbname";
  
          public SQLiteDatabase GetDataBase()
          {
              SQLiteDatabase db = null;
  
              try
              {
                  db = SQLiteDatabase.OpenDatabase(DB_PATH, null, SQLiteDatabase.OPEN_READONLY);
              }
              catch
              {
                  this.GetReadableDatabase();
                  InputStream inStream = _appContext.GetAssets().Open("HadithCompanion.bukhari");
                  Helper.CreateFileFromInputStream(inStream, new File(DB_PATH));
                  db = SQLiteDatabase.OpenDatabase(DB_PATH, null, SQLiteDatabase.OPEN_READONLY);
              }
  
              return db;
          }
  
  
          public static void CreateFileFromInputStream(InputStream inStream, File destination)
          {
              try
              {
                  OutputStream outStream = new FileOutputStream(destination); // THIS CAUSES THE FAILURE
                  CopyFile(inStream, outStream);
              }
              catch (Exception ex)
              {
                  Log.E("OutputStream", ex.Message);
              }
          }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The exception is not caught in the catch. The file "/data/com.MyApp/databases/dbname" does not yet exist, I assume by reading the docs that it would be created upon instantiating the FileOutputStream.</p>
