BZ 1995: Can't Find Historical Database (Linux)

[eriqjaffe]

I just set up a historical league, and I'm getting this popup whenever I open it. OOTP shows that the database is at /home/eriq/ootp-linux/ootp9/data/stats/, and the database is there.

I'm hoping this is a false positive, as I have yet to progress past the first season. Any other Linux users seen this?

I ran into this problem as well. Linux is case-sensitive. The solution was to rename all files extracted from the lahman database to lower-case.

Wrote a quick bash script to do it. Presto-Chango! Perfection.

I can provide you the contents of the script if you need it.

That would be great, if you'd be so kind.

I've logged it as BZ# 1995

#!/bin/bash
for filename in *
do
n=`echo $filename | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'`
mv $filename $n
done


******************************

just execute the script above in the directory containing the files from the database -- it will convert them all to lower-case.

Thanks, that worked a treat!
