This error occurs because you are attempting to run both the AyaNova and the QBI program at the same time, but have AyaNova configured for stand-alone default use.

Stand-alone default use is the default configuration after installation. Only one access to the database can be allowed in this configuration - you can only run the AyaNova program at one time, or the QBI program at one time, you can not run both programs at the same time. If you want to be able to run QBI at the same time the AyaNova program is running, you must configure AyaNova for network use. Refer to the AyaNova v3 Manual section "Additional Installation & Configuration" for details.
