.project file disappeared, can I copy and edit one and still have the project work?

[Jack Hodges]

I am not sure what happened. I am running an older version of TBCME at home and brought my workspace to work (newer version) and 2 projects won't open because they have no .project files (I am wondering how that happened). I checked permissions on other projects that are open, copied and edited their .project files, and tried to open the projects but it didn't work. Then I tried refreshing the system and also relaunching Composer and still it didn't work (couldn't open the projects).

I suppose that I can create a new project and copy the files over but I'd like to know why this is happening.

Hi Jack,

I am not aware of situations where the .project file would automagically disappear. You can "restore" them using

File > Import > General > Projects from Folder or Archive

or yes, create a new project and copy/move the files over.

I found out why this happened. If you have a SPARQL MOTION script InsertOverSelect and you add a connection from its sm:body to anything, then whatever you point it to is part of the sm:body. In my case, everything was downstream of that task, including the return, so TBC no longer saw the script.

Hi Jack,

I am not seeing a possible connection between .project files and executing SPARQLMotion scripts, but whatever the relation was I am glad you seem to have been able to proceed.

I replied to the wrong question. I should have replied to the question about TBC not finding an SM script anymore. Sorry.
