I just upgraded to 0.5.2.  My pre-upgrade history is no longer available - the history list is empty.  Is there any way to get it back?

Thanks,

From which version did you upgrade?
From 0.5.0 to 0.5.2 there should be no problem.
From 0.4.x to 0.5.x queue and history will not be preserved.

0.5.0 to 0.5.2.  This is on Windows.

Just discovered that other preferences were also not preserved by the upgrade, including servers and folders.  Folder settings returned to the default, which is a problem because there is very little disk space on the default drive.

Somehow you must have lost your sabnzbd.ini file.
Just set the folders to their right locations and you'll get your data back.

All I did was shutdown sabnzbd, then download and install the upgrade.  If the ini file is lost it's the upgrade that caused it.

I notice there's a history1.db file in the \sabnzbd\admin folder.  The data seems to be in there - how can I get the program to read it?

Thanks,

Did you uninstall the older version and if so did you "uninstall" the data too?
The installer never touches the data files.

No, I did not uninstall the older version.

Any way of at least restoring the history?  The file seems to be there.

Thanks,

More strange behavior.  I rebooted the computer and now the program is showing the pre-upgrade history, but is not showing history that occurred after the upgrade.  I haven't tried any downloads since the reboot but will let you know if they show up in the history.

The history1.db fle is always there. If it doesn't exist, SABnzbd will create
a new empty one.
