Hi folks,
I started using TW5-Bob just last week and it's been going pretty well
overall. Today I was trying out a new plugin, it wasn't working right, so I
decided to refresh. Imagine my horror when a bunch of my tiddlers were
missing upon reload! When I checked the node process's console, I saw this
exception repeated a bunch of times... it seems unrelated to saving a
tiddler, but I'm not sure.
WebSocket error: TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument
must be of type string. Received type undefined

At first I thought it was due to the naming, i.e. I had a bunch of tiddlers
with colons in the name, but when I looked on the disk, I saw that some
tiddlers with colons in the name were saved and the colon was just
converted to an underscore in the filename.
So... has anyone encountered this before? Could the error above have
resulted in the browser not being connected with the server and tiddlers
not getting saved? I am using a theme (http://j.d.material.tiddlyspot.com/)
that might have obscured any warning message about being disconnected, if
such a warning exists...
Luckily I didn't lose TOO much work, or anything vitally important, but
obviously I'm a bit scared now. How can I audit in the future that my
changes are really getting saved? The new local browser storage feature
mentioned in this forum sounds like it would be a good safeguard against
this type of problem.
Thanks folks!
