Yet the master branch clearly is missing files/folders from the dev branch. Why is that? Shouldn't that folder and all it's contents be added? 'folders' is being tracked on the dev branch, so shouldn't it have gotten pulled over when I did the merge?

It sounds like git thinks that the missing files were deleted on the master at some point between where it branches from dev and the pre-merge head. That's the only reason I can think of for why git would silently drop tracked files during a merge.

Unfortunately, I don't know a good way to fix that. I'd probably just re-add all the deleted files from the dev branch manually (or with a little bit of bash scripting), and then to a git commit --amend to revise the merge commit to include them.

In general - fast forward merge is suitable for merging simple features or bug fixes, but in case when branches developed separately for a while (ex. big feature or release branches) - you need to avoid it.

In the past, we have stored our design data on a network drive and had the project file point to this location. For 2016, I would like to have our design data stored in Vault and have users get the folder from Vault (so the design data folder is on the computer's "C" drive instead of a network location). I believe that this will ease some of our off site pains.

I created the deployment for 2016 on my computer and have no issues. I ran the deployment on a test machine, got the folder from Vault, and received the "incomplete design data folder" error message when I tried to point to the folder in the Inventor options. I assumed that there was a glitch when I got the folder and the computer actually didn't get all the files. Not the case. All files are there.

Has anyone experienced this issue? I really would like to make this work. I found a fix that looked like it might work, but it involved changing the registry and going to each computer to do it. That is not going to work for me.

It sounds like you are missing certain files or folders from that location. If one folder is out of place in the design data structure Inventor will issue that error. I would make sure you have all the required information. In addition is this design data that you are using still in the 2014 format? If so you need to migrate it to the 2016 version.

I use Vault also and I keep my Styles in a "standard styles" folder. I do this so that if there are changes to our materials and appearances, then others can "get" this folder and they will be up-to-date.

What you could do is first copy the C:\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor 2016\Design Data folder to where ever you are storing your styles.... then do a "Get" from Vault. It will over-write any of the files that you have edited when you pull it out of Vault.

I don't think that I am missing files. I have copied the data to two different locations (vault and a network drive). The file count is the same in each place and the file structure should be identical. In the options, I can use the file path for the design data that is on the network, but not file path for what is stored in vault (this file path is on each computer's hard drive). I was able to use the file path for what is in Vault on my computer, until I deleted the design data and then retrieved it from Vault again.

I used the design data from the 2016 default location, so I believe that the design data should be migrated to 2016. I have not used the style library manager to migrate styles in the past, so my experience with this is very limited. I would attempt to migrate the style libraries today, but will be out of the office the rest of the week and don't want to create a problem that I can't fixe immediately. I am in the testing stage and won't be installing 2016 on everyone's computer for weeks.

I am not seeing a reason to overwrite the files. I copied the default files, saved them in Vault in my desired location, then "got" the files from Vault (which placed them on my hard drive). There should be no difference between the default files and what is in Vault, with the exception of the thread spreadsheet (which I have modified).

In Vault, is your working folder mapped correctly? If you will turn on "Show working folder location" (Tools>Options) you can see if its mapped to the same location as the Inventor ipj file. If you turn this "on", the file path will appear in the title bar. If these are not the same, then that will cause what you are seeing.

This may or may not help you. But something I ran into in the past when configuring softwares. If you use "Vanilla" Inventor for the base of your design data files you copied but are trying to set up Inventor Professional to point to those files you will get this message. I haven't tested it, but I don't think they are compatible from "Pro" to "Vanilla" either.

I am trying to import my projects from one machine to another. Both the origin and destination installations run CS v3.2. After copying the project folders (including links) to the new machine, I applied the required patch to Cryosparc and ran the import. For some reason, one of the projects was properly imported, while the other has all the workspaces but is missing many of the jobs. Both of the projects have many workspaces and many jobs. The only difference between them is that the faulty one is older and has been used in the past with older versions of Cryosparc.

There are also folders that are missing the job.log file, but checking with the original project, these are in folders that belong to deleted jobs that are not showing in the original workspace anymore.

You could also share with us (via direct message) the complete run/command_core.log file that contained the error message you reported earlier. Log rotation may have occurred since you first reported the problem, and a digit may have been appended to the appropriate file, for example command_core.log.1.

My project on the old machine is intact and working properly.
I will try to copy my files again to another location on the new machine in case something going wrong last time I did it was the cause for the corruption.

Hello, I'm having problems with saving incomplete forms on a new commcare
app - I can't seem to find an option to do this. It has always been
possible to save an incomplete form by clicking the back button at any
point during a questionnaire, or once you reach the end of the
questionnaire. However this option does not seem to be available on an app
we are currently testing. For example, in the first 2 attachments it shows
that there is no 'folder' on the home screen for incomplete forms (1st
attachment), and when you press the back button the only options are to
stay in the form, or exit without saving (attachment 2). This is compared
to a different app (and any other app i;ve ever made) where the home screen
has folders for saved and incomplete forms (attachment 3) and to save
incomplete forms (attachment 4).

Does anyone know if this is a glitch? Or do i need to perhaps edit
something in the app design itself, or change something in the settings? Or
am i just missing something obvious (even though this has never been a
problem before)?

When creating a new application, the 'Saved Forms' and 'Incomplete Forms'
settings are disabled by default. To correct this, you would need to alter
these settings on CommCareHQ. From your project space, proceed to the
Application Settings page and select the 'Android Settings' drop down. In
this section, you can find the 'Saved Forms' and 'Incomplete Forms'
setting, which will allow you to enable those options for your application.
Be sure to save and deploy a new version after enabling the settings!
