Error opening Individual and Template files
Issue #413
resolved
On Ubuntu 14.04, 64bit latest test build from Launchpad:
In Tape, Create/Edit: Can't open individual and template files. This error message appears: 'This file already opened in another window'
Tried creating new .vit file, no errors, works fine. But can't open it, or any other measurement file. Always get 'opened in another window' error message.

If I open Valentina, create a new pattern with a 1st patternpiece (with 1st pattern point A) and before saving to a pattern file (*.val) then I can Load a measurement file.
Also after saving to a pattern file (.val), I can load a measurement file. So it's independent of a saved .val. It needs to have something in Draw mode, perhaps?
Can't open a measurement file if no pattern is loaded.

You can't open the same file twice. But you can avoid this. Just delete .lock file. The file in the same folder. On Ubuntu enable showing hiden files.

'show hidden files' was enabled. Tried this again. Closed Valentina. Checked directories for *.lock files, checking for 'show hidden files' - no .lock files Opened Valentina Measurements, Create/Edit <Load options are grey/disabled> File/Open template/t_interactivos_template.vit !Error message! Quit Tape
Measurements,Create/Edit <Load options are grey/disabled> Open Invidual/marie_new.vit !Error message! Quit Tape
File/New patternpiece1 Measurements,Create/Edit <Load options are enabled> File/Open Template t_interactivos_template.vit !error message! Quit Tape
Measurements, Load Individual t_interactivos_template <did not get message>
Maybe it is Create/Edit? Load Individual is enabled after creating a pattern piece Load Individual works fine

When Valentina loads measurements It doesn't check .lock file. No, it is something different. I have found bug in code. But it is not what we are looking.

Seek old .lock file in the same folder where your template file and vit file.
-

For example: .MyNewPattern2.val.lock. Valentina can't delete this file.

Try to copy files to new folder.
-
reporter
Did that, tried to video the process but the file gets to big. Nothing in the new folder except one individual file - marie_new.vit
-
repo owner
Did not help?
-
reporter
- attached marie.vit
-
reporter
No, it did not help. Creating a new folder and copying one file to it did not change anything.

If you can stay up with me for a bit, I'd really appreciate it. I know it's frustrating. I've been dealing with political issues and didn't test ahead of time.
-
repo owner
Ok, no problem.
-
reporter
Ah, I copied it to a new folder.
Opened file in gedit to look at read-only. Read-only is 'false' I changed gender from 'unknown' to female. changed birthday from '1800-01-01' to '1900-01-01' and saved.
opened Valentina created new pattern piece updated Preferences to new folder 'm2' opened Measurements, Create/Edit, then Open Individual, marie_new.vit Did not click Show, went right to creating A1 with Point from Distance and Angle Entered 'formula', and selected radiobutton for 'Measurements' The measurements are listed. Saved pattern Clicked 'Show' in Tape The measurements are listed.

repo owner
So, does problem gone?
-
reporter
No because I have to have a pattern file open. Let me keep testing.
-
repo owner
I am doing something wrong, because can't repeat your result.
-
repo owner
Create/Edit just call Tape.exe and nothing more.
-
repo owner
Maybe some tape zombie process block all. Check your system or rebut if don't know how to check.
-
reporter
Yeah, I've checked the process list, but haven't rebooted.
-
repo owner
And?
-
repo owner
I am making new package for Ubuntu.
-
reporter
It seems fine now. I can open, add, create new, create from existing, etc. Thanks for staying up with me on this.
-
repo owner
So, was it zombie process?
-
repo owner
You can now try new package.
-
repo owner
Do you need new package for Windows?
-
reporter
That would be great if we had a new package for Windows.
-
repo owner
