Save recordings to external USB disk does not work for me

It sounds like the USB disk is not available when MinimServer starts after a reboot. Because the log file path you have specified does not exist, MinimServer uses the default log file path instead.

For problems like this with accessing folders on mounted disks, the solution is usually to set the MinimServer delayStart property so that the required path is available when MinimServer tries to access it. Unfortunately this won't work for the logFile setting because this setting is processed very early during MinimServer startup before the delayStart setting is processed.

There is no simple solution for this problem. As a workaround, you could use the "mscript -c relaunch" command to relaunch MinimServer after the USB disk has been mounted. For information about mscript, see this page.
