Hi, Eric. Can you attach the confess() stack trace? It confesses because of an internal error somewhere. Release 1.312 adds a message to the confess() asking for the stack trace.
If possible, could you also check against the development version in git? I found and fixed one cause for that confess() this week, but it's not released yet. I'll expedite the 1.313 release if it fixes your problem. -- Rocco Caputo <rcap...@pobox.com> On Aug 19, 2011, at 14:43, Eric Martel wrote: > Hi folks, > > I'm quite new to POE.
