Error report - Zotero on an external server

hey guys, I have the following problem and I would be very happy if someone can help me: my goal is to store my Zotero database on an external server. To do this, I copied the file path to my file directory on the server and pasted it into Zotero at the custom file directory. Unfortunately my Zotero does not work at all now, I can't get into the program, not even after uninstalling the program and also the file directory from my computer. I have also disconnected from the server. I get this error message when I try to open the program.

[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIFile.create]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/ipc.js :: Zotero.IPC</this.init :: line 36" data: no]
Zotero.IPC</this.init@chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/ipc.js:36:9
this.init<@chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/zotero.js:372:7
From previous event:
ZoteroService@file:///Applications/Zotero.app/Contents/Resources/components/zotero-service.js:346:7
@chrome://zotero/content/include.js:4:14

What can I do? I would like to change the file directory again, unfortunately I have no access at all.

Computer: MacBook Pro (Retina, 13", early 2015).
Operating system: macOS Monterey Version 12.3.1 (21E258)

Thank you very much for the help in advance.
Kind regards Lena
