[Bug] Changing Java version wiped my data #1007

Closed Jamato-sUn closed 3 weeks ago

Jamato-sUn commented 3 weeks ago

Device information

Suwayomi-Server version: v1.1.1 portable for Windows Server Operating System: Windows 10 x64 Server Desktop Environment: N/A Server JVM version: Java 8 Update 421 Client Operating System: Windows 10 x64 Client Web Browser: Google Chrome

Steps to reproduce

  1. I grabbed a portable Suwayomi server
  2. I installed latest JDK 22 for it to work
  3. I added sources and title to my library
  4. I was experimenting with Shimeji and at some point installed JRE 8 Update 421 and removed the latest JDK 22

Expected behavior

No changes in user experience

Actual behavior

All data from Suwayomi was gone. The repository, the library, sources. This probably shouldn't happen.

Other details

There are no other details.

portable ships with its own java, installing any java versions externally wont do anything

I see. Then the issue is: My data randomly vaporized itself over the course of one night.

Robonau commented 3 weeks ago

where did you extract the portable zip to?

Jamato-sUn commented 3 weeks ago

G:\FilesToKeep\portable_software\Suwayomi-Server-v1.1.1-r1535-windows-x64

Robonau commented 3 weeks ago

and the user has write access to that directory?

Jamato-sUn commented 3 weeks ago

Yes, it's not the system drive. Just my SSD for software.

Robonau commented 3 weeks ago

did u change the "root directory" in the launcher? cause its not really portable

Jamato-sUn commented 3 weeks ago

Nope. I only added the repo a couple of days back, added a couple of titles to the Library and did... pretty much nothing else. Yesterday evening the app was working for sure, because I showed it to my friend over Discord. My extensions were there.

Robonau commented 3 weeks ago

yea, the default root directory is in C:\Users\<Account>\AppData\Local\Tachidesk as stated in the wiki you'l need to change it if u want it to be portable

Jamato-sUn commented 3 weeks ago

But I... haven't moved the app anywhere between launches. I'm not like trying to launch it from a new computer or something.

Robonau commented 3 weeks ago

@Syer10 any ideas?

Jamato-sUn commented 3 weeks ago

Oh.... dip. I actually did change Root directory. I checked all the drives and found it elsewhere. And it has all of my stuff. I'm so sorry! I don't know why the software forgot where it was and went to default one, but at least I know where it is now. Please close the issue. =(
