Launch of some recently uploaded Showcase projects gives "MessageNotUnderstood: RWBinaryOrTextStream>>fileInObjectAndCodeForProject" 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SQ-685
                 URL: http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-685
             Project: squeakland
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: showcase
            Reporter: David Corking
         Attachments: SqueakDebug-loading-free-fall-from-squeakland.log

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.)
