Unsolved Script directory is renamed to 'TempScriptDirectory' when saving XML
-
I've had this a few times now.
I have a project called pad-layout-builder.
My scripts sit here:
..\Pad Layout Builder\Scripts\ScriptProcessors\pad-layout-builderMy XML and UIData folder sits here:
..\Pad Layout Builder\XmlPresetBackupsWhen I do a CTRL+SHIFT+S to save the current XML, all of a sudden the scripts folder is renamed to TempScriptDirectory.
But it doesn't always happen. Anyone else run into this?
Projects fail to open on the next run because of it.
-
@Orvillain hmm, that's weird, there's not a single occurrence of "TempScriptDirectory" in the entire codebase (and I don't remember ever using this word). Do you mean the entire "Scripts" folder in the project root?
-
It certainly is an odd one!
I made a video for you:
https://youtu.be/TGOG5S6IAHgNothing appears in the logs. Just the typical "save" message.
But you can see, intermittently, the script folder (in this case pad-layout-builder) disappears, and sometimes it stays but gets called TempScriptDirectory.
Most odd!

TempScriptDirectory
ah fail, I looked in the wrong project (a compiled one). makes sense now.
@Orvillain have you opened the script files in another editor? It tries to replace the files but if it fails (most likely because they are opened somewhere), it stops at the TempScriptDirectory folder.
-
@Christoph-Hart As I put in my other thread, I was getting the same error even though the files weren't open anywhere else. Could it be because I had them open in other script tabs? I haven't seen this error for a while.
-
Unfortunately not, no. Nothing so simple!
Only HISE is open.
I'm on Windows 11 if that helps, running HISE:
-
I've been experiencing this as well. Scripts don't update when I hit compile... and then the main script gets moved to a temp folder. I haven't had time to investigate yet
-
Getting this a lot. Sometimes files even disappear outright. I've just lost an Interface.js altogether for example.
Could it have anything to do with there being hypens in the folder directory structure?
-
@Orvillain I think Christoph fixed this today, have you built the latest commits?
-
@d-healey ooooo, no I haven't! I will do so!
-
@Orvillain Not sure if it fixes this issue, but I fixed the reload bug when using an external editor.
-
I'll check it out. The only oddity I can think of is, my repository has hypens in the name:
drew-hise-experimentsAnd some of my projects also have hypens in the name:
pad-sampler-testetc etc.
Don't know if there is maybe a parsing issue going on when you do a save operation?
-
Unfortunately, this is still an issue. I rebuilt the latest HISE on the 17th at least, and this still happens. Nothing to do with hypens being in the name of folders or anything either.
-
@Orvillain are you working on a network drive?
-
@Dan-Korneff
I'm not no, but all my dev stuff is on my H: drive which is an internal SATA drive. -
Still getting this even with a commit from the 28th of May.

O Orvillain marked this topic as a question on
-
This has reappeared for me again. If I have a project and I add a sampler to it and load a sample map, when I go to save the xml I get this error and I can't save a .hip at all. It just says in the console that it's saved to the project's Presets folder, but nothing is in there.
This doesn't happen with a new project, but once the project is closed and reopened it happens.
Edit: Ahhhh if I remove the setAllowDuplicateSamples line then I don't get this either... everything's connected :( https://forum.hise.audio/topic/10719/allowduplicatesamples-causing-crash
