Frustrating bug

[gabrielp]

I renamed a property value and now Switch is saying:

"Requested property value is not defined: 'PrivateDataValue1'; trying to use default value"



I renamed PrivateDataValue1 to Value1 and nowhere in my code does it reference PrivateDataValue1.



It runs fine in SwitchScripter but errors out in Switch.



I tried reloading the script, remaking the property values, putting the script in a new flow. I have no idea what is going on here...

If you are using Switch 12 you have to restart Switch Server to get it pickup script changes.



Another problem we have discovered in Switch 12 is importing a flow with scripts will use an existing potentially older script if it's in the same location as the system you exported flow from. It creates a new script when you imported it but doesn't automatically reload it so properties and input/output connections may be wrong. Always reload your scripts after importing a flow.

Thanks man... that was really driving me crazy!

I still run into this all the time and its very frustrating. We have to restart our entire production Switch server to load in a small script change.
