Folder named "Open" makes Bunch app not start at all.

Open devpixde opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Did not investigate any deeper, just an observation:

I named a subfolder where i put some bunch files "Open". While developing bunches and testing works fine. But Bunch App refuses to start after new login and seems to crash. Only renaming folder from "Open" to another name helped.

Maybe this name is forbidden, but i did not read sth. like this in the docu.

It shouldn't be forbidden, and I was able to add an Open subfolder without breaking anything. Is it possible there was a "bad character" in your folder name? Can you reproduce this by doing it again?

Thanks, Brett

OK, I can reproduce, but I have something to add:

Additionally I have a startup script called start.startup which should start another bunch.file named "open_noteplan" which resides in a subfolder named "Tasks" and opens some app by command line.

Failing case: If I have a folder named "Open" and this start.startup file in my bunch root then Bunch does not start. Log file claims that the startup script had been executed. (What is not true)

Working cases: If I have a folder named Open and no start.startup file in root -> Bunch starts If I rename folder Open to "Start" and have start.startup file in root -> Bunch starts

So it seems that the combination of an "Open" folder and a (my specific?) start.startup which triggers a bunch "open_noteplan.bunch" makes Bunch crash.

Thank you for the detailed debugging and sorry for the delayed response. Somehow my email responses aren't going through to the Issues.

I'm unable to replicate, even with a start.startup file. Can you show me the full contents of start.startup, open_noteplan.bunch, and a screenshot (or tree output) of your directory tree inside the Bunch folder?
