Richard,
I’m running the different versions of LiveCode on the same Mac and looking at
the same file so I don’t think the OS is affecting this.
I’m just asking if there is a stack with the correct name and getting “false”
as the answer if using LC 9.5.1.
If I ask for “file” and not “stack” then the result is “true”.
The path to the LicenseKey.IW file is correct at: /Volumes/HP c310w/InfoWallet
1.4/Info Files
Here is the error message:
Executing at 4:47:43 PM on Tuesday, December 31, 2019
Type: Chunk: can't find stack
Object: stack '/Volumes/HP c310w/InfoWallet 1.4/Info

Comments:
I think LC must have changed how they are validating “stack” in version 8
compared to version 7.
Maybe, but if so it's happening in a way not even Mark Waddingham is
aware of (see his earlier post), and in ways I've never seen (and I do
some weird things with stack files).
Most interesting here is that "is a file" returns true while "is a
stack" returns false.
Were both of those tests run in the standalone? MacOS changed some
aspects of how apps are allowed to address contents of its internal
bundle folders a while back, but I would be surprised if those come into
play only when testing "is a stack" but not "is a file".
Is the stack file openable in the IDE?
