Maybe important: I uninstalled the previous version and installed 0.4.93 afterwards

So I guess you installed the new version to a different location than the previous one? The problem then is that the path to the certificate file read from the stored config file does not exist anymore.

I'm not exactly sure how to solve this. Maybe we should store a relative path in the config file.

yes - gobby is now in a different directory.

  • milestone set to Gobby 0.4.94

I think the way to go is to store the certificate file in a relative path if it's somewhere within the Gobby installation directory, and as an absolute path otherwise.

Putting it on the agenda for 0.4.94.
