Specifying DATA_FOLDER in ob.cfg causes avatar and cover photo to not load correctly (OSX) #403

Open lunokhod opened 8 years ago

lunokhod commented 8 years ago

Everything works fine when I have the DATA_FOLDER commented out in the ob.cfg configuration file (using OSX). However, when I uncomment this line, add the full path of my real data folder (which is in the default location), and restart the server, the client doesn't load my avatar image nor the cover photo image. Everything else seems to work fine. Bizarre.

I am using OSX, and I have specified the data folder by

DATA_FOLDER = /Users/lunokhod/Library/Application Support/OpenBazaar

Give that the server correctly loads my OB-Mainnet.db file, I presume that the syntax is fine. Just to check, I have tried putting quotes around the path string (this doesn't work), and I have tried backslash escaping the space between Application and Support (but that doesn't work either).

Resolution of this issue is necessary if you wish to run two instances of OpenBazaar on the same machine.

I would like to add that in addition to the avatar and cover photo images not loading, the photos for store items do not load either. When clicking on the store item, the item does not load.

I had the same problem. I am using a 32-bit Ubuntu Server 15.10 installation

This is still an issue and needs to be fixed. This happened two times in a row for me (when moving from Windows to Linux)

Can confirm this has affected me. Would like to see it resolved. :)
