Running server with Simple Disk storage seems always to use volatile memory

[alkampfergit]

Context / Scenario

I configured the Server with this section for services. As you can see I uses simple queue on disk, file storage on disk and vector memory on disk. The server starts and works perfectly but all the services uses Volatile File system, not using file system on disk.

 "Services": {
      "SimpleQueues": {
        "Directory": "c:\\temp\\km\\queue"
      },
      "SimpleFileStorage": {
        "Directory": "c:\\temp\\km\\storage"
      },
      "OpenAI": {
        "TextModel": "gpt-3.5-turbo-16k",
        "EmbeddingModel": "text-embedding-ada-002",
        "APIKey": "my-api-key",
        "OrgId": "",
        "MaxRetries": 10
      },
      "SimpleVectorDb": {
        "Directory": "c:\\temp\\km\\vector"
      }
    }

Question

What is wrong in the configuration above? I generated with dotnet run config and it seems to be correct, but nevertheless no data is persisted on disk.

Also if I download the project in a fresh folder or delete all non source controlled file git clean -xdf when I run dotnet run setup I got an error because it does not find the application.development.json.

I got the answer by myself, I need to add

        "StorageType" : "Disk"

for all configurations. This is the example, it seems that running dotnet run config did not configured correctly the service.

      "SimpleQueues": {
        "Directory": "c:\\temp\\km\\queue",
        "StorageType" : "Disk"
      },
      "SimpleFileStorage": {
        "Directory": "c:\\temp\\km\\storage",
        "StorageType" : "Disk"
      },

Volatile is default mode when not specified, it's on purpose. We can extend the setup wizard to ask, but we won't change the default because it would impact other things.
