    Yeah I am getting the same thing now when attempting to do this it ca not find the themes ...

    In 'mystic -cfg' there should be a place to specify a location of your themes. If I remember right, it is not under the main directory settings but may be a screen or two above the prompt/theme editor. This most
    likely was missed and wasn't changed from Windows to Linux format.

    Nope changed that, I think there is another issue it auto adds the \ or /
    based on OS at the end and might be causing an the issue.

    I don't know if that is something distro specific, but I recently switched to Archlinux and I can do "cd \backups" and it still works. So it would have to be
    something different than that. "cd axisd\backups" doesn't work, and neither does adding a backslash to the end of the directory. But if your system isn't locking up at that point, then I can't see that as the problem. A backslash at the end of the directory tree would take you to a ">" prompt which I doubt Mystic would consider, and there it would sit for the user and not do anything until you force a hangup.

    There is a new command in A11 -paths that can be run on the native system now that allows you to change them properly. =)

    Will have to look into this.

    Simplified. I did also read that the proper way of doing it was to move the system over to the new system, and THEN run 'mystic -cfg' and change your paths
    before executing the server. So.. as I said, there *was* a way to do it successfully. Now you have an easy button. :)
