The track list has suddenly disappeared

[wegavision]

I have stopped a track and saved it. When I try to export it, the track list is empty and all the tracks I have recorded in the last few days have disappeared. I also can't find a working directory under androit/data of the gpstracker, where is it?

So far the app has been very reliable and has also survived power cuts etc, so the tracks must be saved somewhere.

Hi @wegavision,
first of all I would thank you for your reporting, and apologize for you tracks.

Unfortunately the tracks are saved into a database in the app's private folder. For privacy reason it is not possible to access to this folder with a file manager. Even if you accessed to this folder, you couldn't find the tracks in GPX or KML format, but only a sql database.

Please describe precisely which operations you did in the exact sequence when your tracks disappeared, and I'll try to understand where I could search an eventual bug in the app.

It happened again, but luckily I now have another tracker running.
I finished recording and it was saved in the track list as usual. Then I closed the program. When I reopened the app a little later to transfer the track to my computer as a GPX file, all the tracks were gone. There were no error messages or signs that the program had crashed.
I have now reinstalled GPSLogger, and I hope it will continue to work reliably as before.

I modified the code of the database, that now adds a track in an atomic way, avoiding any potential asynchronous issue.
Unfortunately the problem you reported is not reproducible in our test hardware, thus I can only hope that this very annoying issue is solved.

Anyway, I keep the issue open for now, to collect any user feedback.
