Since Michael has been able to correct the attachments issue, I am resending my log attachment. Any help would be appreciated.

First of all, thanks to all who helped out with my previous two questions. I am excited to hear about the state of keyboard listening. I think it could provide for powerful chances for students. They are eager to move beyond using items like rotating an object with its clumsy handle (clumsy only when using it for designing something like a game where quick turns are important).
I have a student who has a 1 megabyte file, and each time she tried to publish, it hangs while publishing. I have attached the log. I have tried on different computers with no luck.
Any ideas? Thanks again,
arvind
Hi, Arvind,
Apparently this project had gotten into an inconsistent state sometime before the publishing was attempted.
Since you mentioned that you've tried to publish the same project on more than one computer, and encountered the same problem, I wonder *what* you copied from computer to computer for the successive trials. Was it an earlier version of the .pr project file that *had* been successfully published? Or did you copy over the squeakPlugIn.image from one machine to the next?
If you still to have a saved copy of the image in which this error occurred, please try this:
(1) Place the attached file into the "My Squeak" folder on the computer that has the Squeak image with the offending project. (2) Start up the image that has the error. (3) "Install" the attached file from a filelist (hit shift-esc to get the world menu, choose "open", then "file-list"; select the file and then hit the "install" button.) (4) Choose "attempt misc repairs" from the "authoring tools" menu (hit shift-esc to get the world menu, then choose "authoring tools", then "attempt misc repairs.") (5) Now try to publish the project again.
*** Alternatively, if you could by any chance make that image available to us on some ftp site, we could download it and take a direct look.
If the offending image is no longer available for trying this out, of course, this won't do your student much good -- sorry. However, probably the attached code, or something derived from it, will appear in a forthcoming Squeakland update to help work around similar error conditions in the future.
Cheers,
-- Scott
PS: If you have no image but do have a previously-successfully-saved .pr file for the project, please email *that* to me privately, if you can.
