Maybe it's corrupted or not compatible.

ok i'm new to tasker. i'm reading the Beginner’s guide to Tasker   http://www.pocketables.com/2012/08/beginners-guide-to-tasker-part-1-tasker-basics.html  
 
i'm attempting to import the profile "Getlocationposttofile" from the wiki page  http://tasker.wikidot.com/getlocationposttofile

i downloaded the file, renamed it Getlocationposttofile.prf.xml, and saved to  in /sdcard/Tasker/profiles    when attempting to import into tasker i get the followign error message "error: no profile found"

would somebody like to see if there is a problem with this profile, if so fix it.  unfortunately i don't have the skill set yet to figure it our for myself

thanks for any help

It's a task:

<class cl="Task" sr="task18">

Import it as a task.

oh ok; got it. thanks and thanks for pointing out how you were able to determine it's a task.

so i renamed it Getlocationposttofile.tsk.xml, and saved to  in /sdcard/Tasker/tasks    when attempting to import into tasker, tasker crashes and "unfrotunately tasker has stopped". any thoughts?
