Adam George updated CB-4319: ---------------------------- Description: There are still issues with the localStorage database on OSX. There is a recent ticket which dealt with a similar issue, and says that the localStorage changes are now persisting on OSX: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-456 However, in my tests, the localStorage is still not working correctly. There appears to be a bug where when restarting the app, the localStorage database is relocated on the filesystem. This is my test case: 1) Start new Cordova-OSX 2.9.0 app. When starting the app, the localStorage datafile exists at ~/Library/Application Support/myapp/file__0.localstorage 2) Make some changes to localStorage in my app. I can open file__0.localstorage in SQLite, and see that those changes are there. 3) Close app. Stop X-Code. Changes in file__0.localstorage are still there. 4) Restart app. App can read my localStorage changes when it boots. HOWEVER, I notice that the ~/Library/Application Support/myapp/file__0.localstorage file is now missing from the filesystem... If I make any changes to localStorage, those changes are being written somewhere... but not into the ~/Library/Application Support/myapp/file__0.localstorage 5) Restart app again. App generates a new db in ~/Library/Application Support/myapp/file__0.localstorage, and the changes that I did in 2) are now lost. was: There are still issues with the localStorage database on OSX.
