Yannik Reiter Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 Hello, I want to change the Directory the thumbnails are stored in. I tried changing it in the general catolog settings in the server administation panel but the thumbnails are still stored at the default location after I updated them. Is there any other way, maybe using the database, to change where the thumbnails are being stored? Thanks, Yannik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uwe Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 Hello Yannik, I've just test it in build 1481. 1. close the client 2. stop the Daminion server 3. select the catalog and enter the new thumbnail folder of this catalog 4. start server and client now the thumbnails are created in the new folder of this catalog Regards, Uwe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems to be very little so I am wondering if it really worked correctly? I will try to update every thumbnail and see if anything changes.

Thanks, Yannik As the update of the thumbnails is progressing, the size of the directory is increasing. Thanks for the quick solution, Yannik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
