I had a Blynk local server working perfectly. Then I decided to follow the guide at http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Create-a-Blynk-Local-Server/ to create certifcates. All good and server running but it no longer recognises the user I had created and the project I was running. There was no change to the data folder location. Can anyone help with this?
Also have noticed that both before and after the above pages, the Admin web page config area doesn’t match the server and mail properties files I am using - server.properties just shows a few lines and if I click the mail.properties file I get “state change error: undefined”. Any reasons for this?
Folder structure is C:/Blynk/server. In server there is server and mail properties plus certificate files plus log folder and data folder. The start line includes -dataFolder C:/Blynk/server/Data.
In the Data folder the server originally created a subfolder “data”. This folder has the u_ .user file plus a folder titled “my project user name”. In this folder there are all the gz and csv files from when I had the server running happily.
I’ve double checked to make sure that the log in name is exactly the same as in the .user file. I have also tried logging on with two different android devices and still keep getting “user is not registered”.
Yes - there’s no change and I can create a log in and start a new project. However I would like to get my old project back which was built with purchased credits.
I can create a new account (same user name and password used) and then I can log in to that new account but I can’t see the existing project. However the new account is not appearing in the data folder. The server command prompt window did this:
C:\Users\David>cd C:/Blynk/server
C:\Blynk\server>java -jar server-0.17.0.jar
Blynk Server successfully started.
All server output is stored in folder ‘C:\Blynk\server.\logs’ file.

From what I see - you initially run local server without dataFolder or another dataFolder. So that’s the reason for missing account. Try to search on your disk file u_dmorph@bigpond.net.au.user.
My old project is alive again! I found the new user file in server/Data so I deleted it and inserted the old user file which was in server/Data/data and it now works. I have the data folder set in the server.properties file as data.folder=C:/Blynk/server/Data and that is why I started the server without specifying the dataFolder. I think it all got a bit confused somewhere along the line.
Thank you for all your help. Blynk is a great system.
