Hello Peter, and a big THANK YOU for super useful program and excellent service!

Now the small problem:
Mnemosyne for PC is set by default to change between dates at 03:00 in the morning. Which it does perfectly well, and fresh cards turn up for rewiew.
As for (at least my) android app, it changes somewhere in the afternoon. So there are no fresh cards in the morning ....
Syncing will always correct this issue for that day , but then I must sync every morning....

I just wanted to mention this, as it might be unintended.

Best regards,
Terje H.

Hi,

 

Have a look at /sdcard/Mnemosyne/config.py, where you can edit the rollover point.

 

If that one is set at 3am, perhaps there’s an Android-specific timezone issue. In what timezone are you?

 

Cheers,

 

Peter

I'm in zone +1 (Oslo)..
I'll check out the config.py.


Best regards, Terje H.

Hi again,
config.py is set to 3.
If I set it to 15, that would make it change at 03.00, don't you think so?

best regards, terje H.

Hi,

 

Can you try with 1.3.1 I pushed out to Google Play yesterday? It could be that as a side effect of these changes, this issue is fixed.

 

Cheers,

 

Peter

Very unhappily, that was exactly when my Android app went into an eternal loop archiving old logs, and never returned. I turned off after a couple of hours...
Trying again has been no help, either, as there is no choice about archiving or not. Neither did it help switching my telephone off and on again....
Should I try uninstalling and then installing again? But then - what will happen to my allready rewiewed cards ( a few days since last sync...). (there are some 5000 cards in stock).
Best regards, Terje H.

Hmm, 1.3.1 was exactly the version where I was supposed to fix this archiving business…. Thanks for letting me know!

 

I suggest to download 1.3 from here:

 

https://sourceforge.net/projects/mnemosyne-proj/files/mnemosyne/mnemosyne-2.4.1/

 

Then sync to your desktop, uninstall Mnemosyne, install 1.3.1 from the link above, delete /sdcard/Mnemosyne and sync again. I would be interested to see if that solves things.

 

Meanwhile, I will push out 1.3.2 to revert the changes.

 

Sorry for the hassle!

 

Peter

Hi, Peter,
Thank You for your kind follow-up. I have done as you suggested. It took me some time, as I didn't even know what an apk file is. But I really learned a lot, and it worked.
Even the troublesome 1.3.1 behaves well after the cure. So tomorrow morning will show, I think.
A part of this problem may have been that my table-top still was running version 2.4.
Looking forward to continue using your excellent program!
Terje H.

Hi,

 

Thanks for your effort! Just to be on the safe side, I will push out a new version to the store where archiving of old logs will no longer happen automatically, but only when you access a menu.

 

Cheers,
