Retaining user data for upgrade on OS X.

Postby zparadox » Tue Jun 19, 2012 4:10 pm

<-------------------------Subsonic Help Request---------------------->
Problem Description: Every time I upgrade subsonic on my OS X server I lose all user data. I am looking for the file(s)/directories that I can back up restore after the upgrade so I can retain my user data.

Troubleshooting Steps: Searching on the web and forum. I did locate an thread that told how to back this up on Windows but noting that is OS X specific.

Playback Application and version: Subsonic Web, Subsonic android app
Subsonic Version: 4.5 (build 2384) – August 10, 2011
Server Version: jetty-6.1.x, java 1.6.0_31, Mac OS X (189.4 MB / 311.6 MB)
Hardware Platform: Max OS X Server 2.53 Ghz intel Core 2 Duo/ 4 GB Ram
Java Memory Limit: 1024 Mb
Problem Filename: N/A
Output from ffmpeg -i: N/A
Last ten log file lines: N/A

It isn't OS specific regarding the subsonic.script file which is where all the user data is stored.
It's just the location that varies so if you search for that file you should be able to locate it.

The application itself is installed in /Applications/Subsonic.app/Contents/.
The application settings (users and such) are stored in /Library/Application Support/Subsonic/.

(at least on my 10.6 mac)

hope that helps!
