After executing the crew, the database files are being created, but no data is being saved in them. Can anyone guide me on whether it is working as intended, or if I am making a mistake somewhere? I have not found any clear examples related to my use case, which involves managing multiple databases for multiple crews.

Here is piece of Code:

```auto
class CrewFactory:
    @staticmethod
    def create_crew(workflow, agents, tasks, process_type, output_log_file=None):
        crew_config = {
            'agents': agents,
            'tasks': tasks,
            'process': Process.hierarchical if process_type == 'hierarchical' else Process.sequential,
            'verbose': True,
            'output_log_file': output_log_file or ""
        }
        if workflow.memory == 1:
            crew_config.update(CrewFactory._get_memory_config(workflow))
        if process_type == 'hierarchical':
            crew_config.update(CrewFactory._get_hierarchical_config(workflow))
        return Crew(**crew_config)
    @staticmethod
    def _get_memory_config(workflow):
        return {
            'memory': True,
            'long_term_memory': LongTermMemory(
                storage=LTMSQLiteStorage(db_path=f"{workflow.long_term_memory}")
            ),
            'short_term_memory': ShortTermMemory(
                storage=RAGStorage(
                    type="short_term",
                    custom_dir=workflow.short_term_memory,
                ),
            ),
            'entity_memory': EntityMemory(
                storage=RAGStorage(
                    type="entities",
                    custom_dir=workflow.entity_memory,
                ),
            ),
        }
    @staticmethod
    def _get_hierarchical_config(workflow):
        if workflow.manager_agent:
            return {'manager_agent': CrewFactory._create_manager_agent(workflow)}
        else:
            return {'manager_llm': ChatOpenAI(temperature=0, model="gpt-4o-mini")}
    @staticmethod
    def _create_manager_agent(workflow):
        from home.serializers import ManagerAgentSerializer
        from home.models import ManagerAgent
        queryset = ManagerAgent.objects.filter(id=workflow.manager_agent_id).first()
        manager_llm_data = ManagerAgentSerializer(queryset).data
        return CrewAgent(
            role=manager_llm_data.get('name'),
            goal=manager_llm_data.get('goal'),
            backstory=manager_llm_data.get('backstory'),
            allow_delegation=True,
        )

```

Here is database which showing no data after excuting above code:

I have the same issue. After execution, there is nothing in the database.

Did you guys find the solution? Thanks!

Hi .. could you help explain what you are trying to achieve here?

Is it to use a tool that store information in a database or store memory during crew execution?
