Zip up your corrupt stack and send it in to 
qual...@livecode.com along with any support files 
necessary to run the stack.

There was a problem opening that stack;
stack is corrupted, check for ~ backup file


Luckily I did have the stack backed up.  I copied my backup to the folder 
(6.1.1  on Windows XP) and made a few changes. Then I saved the stack.
When I went to reopen my new stack I got the same message.

Any advice?

TIA

Re: corrupted stack message

2014-11-04 Thread Björnke von Gierke
What LC version are you using to save, and what version to open it afterwards?

This message often pops up when you open a stack saved with a newer 
stackFileVersion in an older LC version, one that doesn't "know" the new 
version. So if you  save a stack with LC 7, and then try to open it with 6, 
then you'll get this message. Apparently a more friendly message was just added 
to the codebase, so future versions of LC  should be more clear about stacks 
which got saved in a newer version.

If this is the case, there's also a toggle in the settings, under "files & 
"memory": "Preserve stack file version on stacks saved in legacy format"

If however this is not the problem then, I suggest you send both the corrupted 
and the original versions of the stack to supp...@runrev.com, so they can find 
and remove whatever bug causes your stack to be corrupted.
