Synced Files Broken in Web Frontend, Showing Full Path in Name

[Geektasticdad]

I'm fairly new to Gramps, but I set up the Gramps app and then spun up a docker container running Gramps Web Frontend. I want to use the app to make updates and then sync them to the web UI so I can invite family to view. Problem is, when I run the sync, the filenames that get uploaded show the full file path.

When I set up the family tree, I used a different Database, Backup, and Media path, and I did this so the changes will sync to my OneDrive backups.

Database Path: C:\Users\\OneDrive\Documents\Gramps Backups Path: C:\Users\\OneDrive\Documents\Gramps\Backups Base Media Path: c:\users\\onedrive\Documents\Gramps\Media

The media I have is just in the root base media path, so the filenames would be something like "29665468_10215735084633126_6974925612187432103_o.jpg"

When I run the sync, they upload the file name as this "C:\Users\\OneDrive\Documents\Family Tree\Family Tree_media\29665468_10215735084633126_6974925612187432103_o.jpg" (note that this whole thing is the filename, see below).

I'm curious what I am doing wrong?

Okay quick update, I ran a Check and Repair of my database the ran the sync. File names are still wonky, but they aren't broken now. Is this normal behavior?

Hi,

please see the documentation https://www.grampsweb.org/user-guide/import/: when using Gramps Web, you should make sure you don't have any absolute media paths as these won't work on the server. Let me know if that resolves your problem.
