I like to move the Kodi data folder from internal storage to sdcard. I read the tutorial but it doesn't seem work with latest kodi v18. 

I copied  .kodi and .smb folder from /sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/ to /storage/sdcard1/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/ and created xbmc_env.properties  as below

Code:


$ cat /sdcard/xbmc_env.properties                    
xbmc.data=/storage/sdcard1/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files


Kodi just crashes with following logs or stays stucked on a blank screen. Then I deleted .kodi and .smb folders from  /storage/sdcard1/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/ in hope that kodi will recerate but it continues to crash or stays on blank screen. 

However if I remove /sdcard/xbmc_env.properties, kodi again starts working from the internal storage.  

Please help. Logs below.
