QSWAT and QSWAT3_64 version 1.1 for QGIS3 are now available
Jaclyn Tech
QSWAT3 and QSWAT3_64 are 32 bit and 64 bit ports of QSWAT to QGIS 3. Existing users of QSWAT and ArcSWAT can continue to use their current installation of the SWAT Editor and the SWAT executable with QSWAT3 and QSWAT3_64.
You choose between QSWAT3 and QSWAT3_64 based primarily not on what machine you have but on whether you have a 32 bit version of Microsoft Office, or a 64 bit, or don't have Microsoft Office at all.
If you have a 32 bit machine or you have a 32 bit version of Microsoft Office on a 64 bit machine, you need a 32 bit version of QGIS 3 (currently you should choose 3.10) and QSWAT3. You should also download and install Microsoft Access Database Engine Redistributable 2016, and choose the 32 bit version (called accessdatabaseengine.exe).
If you have a 64 bit machine with no Microsoft Office, or with a 64 bit version of Microsoft Office, you you need a 64 bit version of QGIS 3 (currently you should choose 3.10) and QSWAT3_64. You should also download and install Microsoft Access Database Engine Redistributable 2016, and choose the 64 bit version (called accessdatabaseengine_X64.exe).
If you make a mistake and there is a mismatch between your version of Microsoft Office and the database engine you choose, you will get a warning that you need to uninstall Microsoft Office. Don't do that! Back out without uninstalling Office and check these release notes again.
Warning: QSWAT3 and QSWAT3_64 are functionally equivalent to QSWAT. The change to QGIS3 is being made because QGIS2 is no longer supported. While we have tried to ensure that QSWAT3 is free from bugs, it is new code. If you are in the middle of a project you are strongly advised to complete it before upgrading. You can install QGIS3 and QSWAT3 at the same time as QGIS2 and QSWAT2. Existing QSWAT projects will load into QGIS3 and QSWAT3, with just a warning about the old project file, which you can ignore unless you want to go back to QGIS2.

Sorry you have a problem. I don't see any obvious reason for it.
I presume you have installed the accessdatabaseengine_X64.exe.
Did you check that the path in the error message to your project
database is correct, i.e. the file exists. I presume you generated it
and are the owner: if not please check you have permission to edit it.
If the above checks are OK, try moving your project to somewhere where
permissions will not be an issue, e.g. under your Documents folder, and
try a path with no spaces in it.
If the problem persists get back to me.
Regards,
Chris
PS How did you get the print out of your Microsoft Office version
details? I don't have it, and so don't have an easy way to suggest to
people.
