Serviio

Hi,

I tried changing the location to the database by modifying the following file
ServiioService.exe.VMOPTIONS and adding the line
-Dderby.system.home=F:\Data\serviio\database
I also tried
-Dderby.system.home="F:\Data\serviio\database"

Serviio 1.3.1 on Windows 7 x64.
Unfortunately when I restarted the Serviio service in services.msc the service was still using the default location.
I would like to move the serviio database location to a different disk/drive.

I could make a hard link, but prefer to edit and have a working configuration. Anyone successfull in changing the database location?

I followed the instructions listed on http://www.serviio.org/index.php?option ... icle&id=43

it must be in the service vmoptions file, not the console one

My bad indeed, sorry did a quick copy and paste when posting the message.... but I did change the ServiioService.exe.VMOPTIONS file.
I edited my original post to reflect that.

ServiioConsole.exe.VMOPTIONS file is empty (no lines)

so how does the vmoptions file look like now?

just one entry

-Xmx512m

and you add your on a new line, right?

yes

so the modified VMOPTIONS file would have
-Xmx512m
-Dderby.system.home=F:\Data\serviio\database

are you able to reproduce?

looking at the code, this property might not be used. try with the below

Yes, that works! This should go in the FAQ

Cache and tumbnails are still in %PROGRAMFILES%\Serviio\library\cache and %PROGRAMFILES%\Serviio\library\search
I suppose this will have to do...

I prefer all my programs and data on separate disks.
