Hello Peter,

0.: when I delete the folder /sdcard/Mnemosyne completely (not only the content) on my phone and install Mnemosyne on my phone afterwards (both 2.3.6 on PC and Android), then Mnemosyne on the phone will try to compress the log files ("About to archive old logs to improve running speed. Depending on..."), I clicked "Ok, proceed". This a weird behavior, since I have deleted the folder /sdcard/Mnemosyne! When Mnemosyne has finished the archiving process, then it opens the phone's server configuration menu. I enter all the server info needed and click "ok". After this Mnemosyne (on the phone) throughs the error "Sync failed, restoring from backup. The next sync will need to be a full sync." At this time the PC version of Mnemosyne is stuck on "Sending media files...". When I try to sync again (to start the full sync), the PC version of Mnemosyne throughs the error "Sync failed, restoring from backup. The next sync will need to be a full sync.", while Mnemosyne on the phone shows "Logging in..." and after a some seconds "Could not connect to server!".

1.: Yes, pressing the back button solved the problem on the last working installation, that's true.
2.: Yes, and I have tried it again (see above).
3.: I thought so too.
4.1:I have tried the 2.4 Android version with the 2.3.6 PC version: default.db gets created (size: 120.0 KB)
4.2: The same for 2.4 on both devices. The folder /sdcard/Mnemosyne is not there right after install, but after I started Mnemosyne the first time (right after initialization) the folder and the defaul.db file have been created. I don't get the error message "About to archive..." with this setup!

The numbers 1. to 4. correspond to the numbers below.

Greetings,

Abakus


>I have tried another cell phone too, the syncing doesn't work on this phone either (the "taskbar" overlaps the tags).

1. If that's the only problem, then exiting Mnemosyne by pressing the back key on your phone (not home) and restarting Mnemosyne should solve the problem.

>Reverting to the old Mnemosyne version (2.3.6) did not work. I get the attached errors now. Mnemosyne on the PC displays the message "Sending >media files", but it doesn't send anything.

2. Just to be sure: this was with 2.3.6 both on your desktop as well as the android apk corresponding to 2.3.6 that you can download from sourceforge?

https://sourceforge.net/projects/mnemosyne-proj/files/mnemosyne/mnemosyne-2.3.6/

Also, best to start from an empty /sdcard/Mnemosyne

>When I opened the cards browser with the freshly reinstalled old Mnemosyne on my PC for the first time, I got the error message "XX" (see >attachment) once.

3. I would not worry about this, could be a temporary side effect of downgrading.

>> In your current phone situation, do you find a config.db in your Mnemosyne
>> directory, but not a default.db?
>
>Both files have been in the folder /sdcard/Mnemosyne and they are still there with the 2.3.6 Mnemosyne for Android.

4. I meant using 2.4 and deleting /sdcard/Mnemosyne, does default.db get created?

Cheers,

Peter

Hi,

Well, in that case, it seems that if you use the latest version on both devices, you don't have problems anymore (if you use the workaround 1) :-)

Cheers,

Peter

Hello Peter,

I am sorry, it still doesn't work, but I don't get the message "About to archive old logs...", when I have version 2.4 installed on both devices (comment 4.2). This message does not make sense, because right after a clean install (deletion of the folder /sdcard/Mnemosyne prior to installation) of Mnemosyne on my cell phone there should not be any old logs on my phone yet. Maybe the problem is close to where this message gets thrown?

Pressing the back button solves only the issue that the tags get covered by the "taskbar" (the bar with the time). This workaround worked on the previous version (2.3.6) too.

Greetings,

Abakus

Hi,

Don't worry about the 'archiving old logs' thing, the behaviour you observe is exactly what I expect and should not cause problems.

What do you mean by 'doesn't work on 2.4'? Do you get the same messages during syncing as what you reported with 2.3.6? Can you post screenshots of the full messages, including the traceback (linenumbers and code etc)?
