Re: User profile location redirect

Hi Andrew,

No, don't change the config.py directly. Create a new file naming
config_local.py in the same directory and paste the following in it:
LOG_FILE = '/var/log/pgadmin4/pgadmin4.log'
SQLITE_PATH = '/var/lib/pgadmin4/pgadmin4.db'
SESSION_DB_PATH = '/var/lib/pgadmin4/sessions'
STORAGE_DIR = '/var/lib/pgadmin4/storage'
Change the values above to the desired location. Restart the pgadmin server
to reflect the change.
