[Opensim-users] Disappearing folders or items when declining inventory offer?

Sun Apr 28 04:34:04 UTC 2013

Hmm... That is a bit strange. On the viewers I thought to be OK I was 
able to utilize the test object after the test (By attempting to rez the 
object and looking to see if it would appear or not and watching the 
console for errors). However, I based all my tests transferring an item 
from Phoenix viewer (which is currently my viewer of choice) to the 
viewers in my test results since it didn't seem to make a difference 
which viewer the item came from, just the viewers they were going to. I 
managed to lose a script I spent about 8 hours working on in the process 
due to the Lost and Found folder issue explained toward the end of my 
previous email (D'oh!)... but I was able to recover it by grepping a 
dump of my database and then dumping the most recent asset.

I did a quick test as I was writing this with a transfer from Firestorm 
to Firestorm on seperate computers and with viewers on the same computer 
(Computer OS is running on) to be sure but I was not able to reproduce 
the issue in this way. I also tried with both HTTP Inventory on and off 
as well but it didn't seem to make a difference. The Lost and Found 
issue also does not show up on the viewers listed as OK in my previous 
tests with the exception of Phoenix viewer, it's OK when using silent 
discard, but the issue shows up when using regular discard.

As an addendum to my previous test, I also noticed that if other avatars 
had a copy of the object you gave to another avatar, and the issue is 
triggered, then that particular object will missing from the other 
avatars inventories as well. Just to be clear, when I say missing, I 
mean that it seems to be missing from the database, but not visually 
from the inventory (at least not until a relog); can't do anything with 
the object in the way of using it such as rezzing, wearing, 
transferring, etc.
