Relational Database - CodeRoad

Hello, i’m having a trouble starting the second tutorial in the relational database (Learn Relational Databases by Building a Database of Video Game Characters), when i rebuild the docker image in new vs code container and hit CodeRoad start, it opens a project folder in created workspace where the first tutorial (Learn Bash by Building a Boilerplate) is running. It opens the CodeRoad on the last step of the first tutorial, where you just should hit the exit in the terminal to pass the test.

Do i need to create a new workspace or a new folder to start a new tutorial ?

It solved it for one time use, i end up doing 50% of the tutorial and when i tried to continue today it has reseted to the first tutorial, everytime i close the container everything resets.

closing the container doesn’t reset anything for me.
But, if you are running rebuild & reopen each time you go back, yes, that will reset it.

Instead, you should only run ‘reopen in container’ when you come back.

When i delete the 2 folders vscode-extensions and vscode-profile, close everything and rerun the command which adds them (code --user-data-dir ./vscode-profile --extensions-dir ./vscode-extensions .), install dev containers extension in the directory and hit rerun and reopen as the vscode suggest, i get stuck on this window.

Now i have closed everything and tried reopen in new window and it shows the first tutorial as before.

not sure if you read my message from before:

if you are running rebuild & reopen each time you go back, yes, that will reset it. Instead, you should only run ‘reopen in container’ when you come back.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding your question? The way I read your question here:

I read that to mean that you need help understanding why coderoad erases your progress when you exit the container. The only reason it would do that is if you are running rebuild & reopen (which you should not do unless you want to erase everything)

My progress was erased anyways, so i tried to do the whole tutorial again, but now i’m not able to do even that.

maybe you should tell us what it is you are trying to do more precisely.
(and all the steps you have tried so far in the order you tried them in)

At worst case, you can erase the rdb-alpha and start all over again by cloning it again etc.
Just keep a note of everything you are doing though so that if you get stuck or need help you can give us enough details about what you did to get to that point.
