Portable Error

[Chris Morlang]

Hello everyone,

I used to have no issues with my USB and the changing drive letter but today on my laptop I upgraded Mnemosyne to 2.3.5 and it was all still working just fine. Then I got home to my desktop and I got this. Maybe I should have just not updated Mnemosyne.

"Could not create D:/Mnemosyne/Mnemosyne/Korean.db_media./nCheck your file permissions and make sure the directory is not open in a file browser."

"Previous drive letter no longer available"

(Info) If you are using a USB key, refer to the instructions on the website so as not to be affected by drive letter changes.

Then I get the error 

An unexpected error has occurred.

Please forward the following info to the developers:

Traceback (innermost last):

  File "mnemosyne", line 191, in <module>

  File "mnemosyne\libmnemosyne\__init__.pyo", line 208, in initialise

  File "mnemosyne\libmnemosyne\__init__.pyo", line 342, in load_database

  File "mnemosyne\libmnynesome\controllers\default_controller.pyo", line 586, in show_open_file_dialog

  File "mnemosyne\libmnemosyne\component.pyo", line 138, in flush_sync_server

  AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'stop_media'

I checked the file permissions they are just fine. I tried to change the drive letter of the USB on my desktop but "D" isn't one of my options I can change it to so right now I can only use my USB drive on my laptop.

And just to be clear, yes I did follow the instructions on the website and had copied the data folder over onto the USB. As I said I didn't use to have an issue until I updated the program today.

Hi,

 

The moment you got the error about D not being accessible, was D the letter corresponding to your USB key?

 

And you do start the Mnemosyne app installed on the USB key, right? Not a copy of the executable which is installed on your hard drive?

 

Worst case you can still delete ‘config’ on your usb key, that’s where the memory of the previous drive is stored.

 

Cheers,

 

Peter

I have no copy installed on my hard drives at all. 

Yes the "D" was refering to my Drive letter. 

Since I didn't have a whole lot of stuff in Mnemosyne I actually reinstalled it from scratch onto another USB to try it and I still got the same issue when changing computers.

Do I delete all three config files? (.db, .py, .pyo)

I would start with the db one.

Thank you, removing the config.db made it work (until I moved it back to the laptop but I just deleted the config.db file again)

[Peter Bienstman]

Ok, let me know if it reoccurs.

Cheers,

Peter
