[IGN-12538]Custom Session Properties Gone

This is the second time this has happened to me where my custom session properties are gone. I had approx. 20 of them and at some point they just disappeared. I see a lot of other posts about people losing bindings to them among other things but I don't believe I saw one where the session properties were essentially deleted. Does anyone else ever experienced this problem? The Ignition Edge version is 8.1.23

(Numerous other topics depending on which keywords you put in a search.)

Oh, and I've never bumped into it on Linux. FWIW.

Thanks for fast response.
This is worst than a nightmare.

Sorry for duplicate post..

Solution

• put up a Docker Container
• restore backup
• Designer export "Session Props"
• Designer import
• Designer Save and Exit
• Relaunch Designer

Solution

You can also just copy the session props file from the gwbk and paste it over the one in the file system in production, then issue a project file system scan from script or Web portal. Then update project from the designer to pull in the changes
