Where Does Mylar Store Config and Database?
Where Mylar keeps config.ini, its database and comic cache.
Last updated
Mylar follows linuxserver conventions: one /config mount holding config.ini, the comics database and cache. Comic files themselves live in separately mapped library folders the app manages but never owns.
Confirm exact filenames by listing /config on your install, since fork generations rename stores. Keep the library mounts stable across moves or download histories detach from their files.
Where Mylar stores this, by platform
<mylar config>/config.ini
Linuxserver /config mount with config.ini, comics database and cache. Library comics live in separate media mounts. Verify filenames by listing /config; fork eras vary. Persist the mount across recreates.
Frequently asked questions
Mylar forgot everything after updating Docker. Why?
Persist /config as a volume. Config, database and cache all live under it in linuxserver images, so unmounted containers reset to onboarding on every recreate.
What must I back up for Mylar?
Back up config.ini plus the comics database from /config. Snatched comics themselves live in your library folders outside the container, so pair both halves for full restores.
