Upgrade Storagelibrary empty, zotero.sqlite size of 0 kb
I have a problem which is not described in the documentation, I believe.
I installed and began using Juris-M only a few days ago. I had a custom location for Zotero/Basisverzeichnis and Zotero/Datenverzeichnis on an internal HDD, because I did not want all the PDF copies on my SDD.
Yesterday, I put my laptop into stand-by, having kept Juris-M open. This morning, I woke Windows 10 up (leaving stand-by) and all of my library was gone. I then closed and re-opened Juris-M a few times.
After closing it, an error appeared. It was unable to load translators and styles.
I unchecked automatic syncing and disconnected my Zotero online profile from Juris-M. The online library is still integer, as it was yesterday.
My zotero.sqlite file has a size of 0 KB. I read that an empty database should be either 1 MB or 5 MB.
I have no zotero.sqlite.*bak files (I checked with LookDisk).
I then made a backup by copying the folder called "Zotero".
I opened Juris-M again and now it is "Installing 212 jurisdictions".
A solution, I think, would be to sync my online library to the laptop. How can I do this? If I understood the documentation correctly, I can simply reconnect my online profile to Juris-M and it will sync the online content to the laptop.
PS: By the way, I find the translations Basisverzeichnis and Datenverzeichnis misleading, because Basisverzeichnis is the database if I understood it correctly.

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
BTW the "reset sync" documentation differs from the recent Juris-M version's reset sync screen: https://imgur.com/a/IqSqyWChttps://forums.zotero.org/discussion/81202/library-empty-zotero-sqlite-size-of-0-kb?#
Yes, re-syncing with the online library should be just fine, but your error is also quite odd and frankly shouldn't be possible to occur -- I'd also recommend reaching out the the juris-m developer via github for further troubleshooting.
