 Delete Time Date Action Gives Error This command in an Embedded script gives me an error in the log even though it does remove the Time Date Action; - Code: Select all
delete time date action "_hallMotion_"
. Error script error: time date action "_hallMotion_" of «script» doesn’t understand the delete message. (-1708) Any ideas? thanks, bob

Re: Delete Time Date Action Gives Error If that's an embedded AppleScript try wrapping it in a 'tell application "IndigoServer"' block. you may be experiencing the AppleScript component corruption issue.

set value of variable varName to "false"
set theName to "_" & varName
set theDescription to "This is a timer to turn off " & varName
set theTriggerTime to ((current date) + theTimeout)
make new time date action with properties {name:theName, description:theDescription, time trigger type:absolute, date trigger type:absolute, absolute trigger time:theTriggerTime, enabled:true, auto delete:true}
set action type of action step 1 of time date action theName to modifyVariable
set variable action of action step 1 of time date action theName to setValue
set variable name of action step 1 of time date action theName to varName --var name here
set variable value of action step 1 of time date action theName to "true" --var value here
thanks, bob

Re: Delete Time Date Action Gives Error Is it embedded and did you wrap it in a tell block as suggested above?

Re: Delete Time Date Action Gives Error Jay, They are both embedded, one creates the Time Date Action and the other deletes it. Do I wrap them both? I haven't tried it yet as I'm at work  I'll give it a go when I get home. regards, bob

Re: Delete Time Date Action Gives Error Try it on one - if that fixes it then it appears you've been bit by the corrupt AppleScript component bug - any script you edit will need to be wrapped. Scripts that are currently running don't seem to be affected - it's only a compiler scoping problem of some type.

Re: Delete Time Date Action Gives Error Jay, Fixed it. If you try to delete a Time Date Action and it doesn't exist then you get an error. I changed my embedded script from - Code: Select all
delete time date action "_hallMotion_"
to - Code: Select all
if exists time date action "_hallMotion_" then
delete time date action "_hallMotion_"
end if
and now no errors. bob

Re: Delete Time Date Action Gives Error I had this bug too, I just did a hard drive replacement and installed fresh from the Snow Leopard DVD and ran software update. I didn't transfer my Home directory from my previous install, because I wanted everything to be as clean as possible.
I've got Indigo running with my saved database and the Applescript corruption seems to have followed, I still have to wrap everything in tell application "IndigoServer". Any idea if this could be connected with Indigo or my Indigo database? (I'm running the Indigo 5 beta with the same issue now too.)
Thanks!

Re: Delete Time Date Action Gives Error We've tried other people's database file that have the problem and weren't able to replicate, but feel free to send us yours (to indigo DASH support AT perceptiveautomation DOT com) and we'll try it out.
This is the first report that reinstalling didn't work - not sure what to make of it. Some questions:
1) Did you copy over Indigo or install from scratch?
2) How did you move over your Indigo DB files/preferences/scripts?
3) Did you use migration assistant to move ANY files?
