Can anyone tell me how to change the location of the database or if I can install to a different drive? Moving the database would be preferred. After the third time filling up my root drive and having to delete the backup database, this is getting annoying.
[reply=“JRTCo;d646”] Here are the instructions for Windows (I’ll have to verify if Linux has the repository option in a similar place if you cannot find it).

Yeah I looked on the site and in the install instructions. I could only find references to a windows installation. I need the debian linux method though.
Hello,
There is a linux method available that you can try:
[list]
[] stop the services
[] move the actual database from /path/1/cbbackup.db to /path/2/cbbackup.db (same for .db-wal and .db-shm)
[] create symlinks from /path/1/ to /path/2/*
[*] start services
[/list]
Hope it helps, let us know if you require further assistance.
[reply=“JRTCo;2216”], to add to the comment above - you might also want to adjust the settings for the logs.
Execute the command [ ./cbb options -set logging ] for details
Hey All, finally tried this. I moved the entire config folder and symlinked that. But now the app wont start. The WebAccess log reports that Web access is disabled. Any ideas?
[reply=“JRTCo;2257”] Please make sure web access is enabled as detailed in this blog post. Let us know if that addresses the issue. https://www.msp360.com/resources/blog/taking-advantage-of-web-access-for-macos-linux/
Thanks, I had already tried that but must have fudged something. I copy pasted and it works now. Thanks for the help, much appreciated.
[reply=“JRTCo;2266”] Glad it’s working.
