I've just installed 2.01 on Ubuntu through Pip. When the GUI starts up it tries to create a new projects in

/home/xxx/GNS3/projects/untitled

A Projects directory, with a capital P has been created in the GNS3 directory and so creating a new project results in both projects and Projects. Either the default in the GUI should be Projects or the directory on disk should be projects.

@grossmj do you see the problem on your Linux? Because I checked the source and nowhere we have the string "Projects"

This is what was created after the Pip install on Ubuntu 16.04 and after I'd started and stopped the app a few times. I didn't create any of these directories by hand

$ ls -al GNS3/
total 32
drwxrwxr-x 8 robin robin 4096 May 20 21:53 .
drwxr-xr-x 61 robin robin 4096 May 20 22:25 ..
drwxrwxr-x 2 robin robin 4096 May 21 21:34 configs
drwxrwxr-x 5 robin robin 4096 May 21 21:41 images
drwxrwxr-x 3 robin robin 4096 Dec 25 20:13 Images
drwxrwxr-x 3 robin robin 4096 May 20 21:54 projects
drwxrwxr-x 2 robin robin 4096 May 20 21:32 Projects
drwxrwxr-x 2 robin robin 4096 May 20 21:53 symbols

I'm sorry but I don't replicate the problem. I installed ubuntu, install GNS3 via pip and start it without seeing that.

Could it be something from a previous installation?

Thanks for the report, perhaps one day we will know what happened.

I've just noticed these two entries in ~/.gns3/gns3.ini

 17 project_directory=/home/robin/GNS3/Projects
 18 ios_directory=/home/robin/GNS3/Images

Nothing to do with me, I've only just found this file while trying to set up remote access. Something else set this file up.

This gns3.ini seem to be from a GNS3 0.8 installation. Version later use gns3_gui.conf and gns3_server.conf. But if this file is present at first run old settings are imported.
