moved files and tried to symlink ~/.var/app/com.usebottles.bottles/data/bottles/bottles -> /media/second_drive/Data/bottles

[mirkobrombin]

Looking at the code, we perform a os.makedirs(Paths.bottles, exist_ok=True) with exist_ok=True which should not raise an exception if the directory already exists. So nothing we can fix in our own.

I think there is a permission problem which is not identified by the python wrapper. Did you give permissions for both paths (symlink source and destination)?
