I'm trying to find a file in my system with "sudo find / -name file", but I

access this database. How can I find, where it is located? I need it to db
restart.
Assuming that "can not" means that the find command successfully runs,
but doesn't show the location of the file, there are options, including:
sudo find / -name '*file*' # In case of an extension or other guff.
or
sudo updatedb
locate -i file
Try just the "locate" command. updatedb may have been run automatically
since the file was added.
Good luck,
Erik
