What types of files will be saved when defining the path for the data_dir option in odoo.conf

Question

In the config file there is a data_dir option. Is this the path used to specify attachments to be saved here? And what format is it saved in? Because when I access it, it seems like the file is encrypted. I'll try to see if it's base64 encoded.

*Hello Nganvo,*
In that
data_dir
path, odoo will create folders: addons, filestore and session
in filestore odoo server will create a new folder for each database,  and in database,
in table ir_attachment will be stored path relative to /path/to/desired/Odoo/filestore/db_name ... to actual file...

This folder will contain all attachments (from backend, and also all website materials like pictures etc...)

Hope this helps..

p.s.
odoo user should have rw acces to that folder, but under any
cicrc
