David Corking commented on SQ-685:
----------------------------------

After intervention by Timothy, there are now two "Free fall" projects on the showcase, with correct thumbnails.  They both launch correctly for me.

(1) "Free fall" http://squeakland.org/showcase/project.jsp?id=9709  
(The description string is not yet fixed.  It should read:  'A captured comet orbits in two dimensions.'   I don't think I will be able to change it without causing more glitches.)

(2) The sequel.  "Free fall two" http://squeakland.org/showcase/project.jsp?id=9739 
'Two moons in orbit, an answer to the first challenge in "Free fall"'

All other attempts to upload "Free fall" or the sequel "Free fall two" have been marked private.

> Users intermittently get a Debug window when launching projects uploaded by user dcorking.  Users probably attempted to launch projects from web browsers.
> Reported by yoshiki, carlos and cmurakami (first reported on March 27 2010). 
> I could reproduce this intermittently.   The progress bar display is interrupted by the Debug window.  The error I saw is: "MessageNotUnderstood: RWBinaryOrTextStream>>fileInObjectAndCodeForProject". One example showcase page is:
> http://squeakland.org/showcase/project.jsp?id=9708
> Debug log attached  (I used Firefox 3.6 on Mac OS X 10.4 with Etoys 4 build 2336 to make this log.)
> I suspect I uncovered the issue by my actions: either by updating a project with improvements and uploading it with the same name, or by adapting the project and giving the new uploads similar names: "Free fall" "Free fall 2" and "Free fall two".  All these projects load and execute correctly locally.  (Notice other effects on the showcase which may be related to this issue: incorrect or missing thumbnails, and incorrect description strings on showcase website.  I have not raised tickets for those observations yet, in case they are related or can be worked around.)
