So I've got auto create on for file bases and it works well, file bases are created in the /extdrive/mystic/files/autocreated/ directory. When I come along in Mystic Configuration to change the file path to say /extdrive/mystic/files/fidonet/ folder it moves the folder and files to the new directory but when I look in Mystic the files that were imported are no longer listed even though they physically exist on the drive...
is this a bug or am I going about it the wrong way?
Hmmm so the files are moved and the new folder is created right?
But Mystic does not list them, or does it show offline or ?

When I log on to my bbs the filebase in this example shows under the FidoNet group however the file/s that were imported when the filebase
was auto created no longer appear in the Indexed File Lister.
Yes. When I change the filebase from /autocreated/z3dist/ to /fidonet/z3dist/ the new folders are made and the physical files are copied across.
If you use the 'list files' option on the file base that has been moved
to a new directory do you see the files listed there?
Where are you doing this? I have a RPi also, and ran a test whereby I ran ./mystic -cfg and updated the path of a file base by adding an extra directory to the current path. Mystic created the new dir but checking
my Pi using the file manager I see the dir created but no files moved to it. They were still in the original dir and the indexed file lister
still shows the files present.
You have to Mass Upload those files into the Database.
Just because Mystic made a new folder there and the files are in the folder, running Mass Upload in Mystic reads the files located in the new location, and then adds them to the Database...
What is happening is Mystic Configurator is creating a _new_ empty data file set called STN_OLIST while leaving the original auto_STN_OLIST data file set alone.
What SHOULD happen is Mystic Configurator should RENAME the data file set instead of creating new, empty files.
I tested by changing the data file field in Mystic Configurator to auto_STN_OLIST then went back in to the bbs and the files showed up in
the file list.
So it is a bug, I'll just have to rename them all manually from now
on....
