I have Mnemosyne 2.10  running on my Linux machine, I configured Mnenosyne on that machine in the Server section with a user name and a password and the server is running fine. I am now trying to sync the contents of Mnemosyne on the Linux machine with Mnemosyne 2.6.0 on my Android device. I activate Sync on the Android machine (entering the ip of the linux machine, port, password...) but then I get an error on the Android device: "Error: mismatched user ids. The first sync should happen on an empty database. Backup then delete the local database and try again. In my opinion I should delete the database on the android device  but how do I empty the database on the Android device?
Can anyone here help me further?

kind regards,
Hugo

Do you have an old directory like /sdcard/Mnemsonye? If so, delete it to empty the database.

I have a folder /storage/emulated/0/mnemosynefolder on the android device with some subdirectories and files like default.db, thai.db... Should I delete that folder completely with its contents?

kind regards,
Hugo

Yes, that'll be the one.

Cheers,

Peter
