Back to it today. I can go to any other card and save the stack from the File menu. Only on this card does it fail. I checked the filename of the stack and it is accurate even from this cd. However, there is an image on the card, the filename is currently set to the url that MC is attempting to save the stack to. Nothing in open- or preOpen- card or stack changes the img filename or sets any filename.

I tried saving from the msg box as well, same error.

And the filename of the img itself is in error. It was the last thing I was working on when saving broke.

Sooo... will attempt:

1.  Fix the image.
2.  Delete the image.
3.  (Last resort) delete and redo the card



It is possible to set the filename of a stack, even if it is already saved and has a different file name to start with. If you do that, you'll get a copy with the new name the next time you save it.

Does the script on that card do something like "set the filename of the target"? And if so, is it possible that the target isn't the image but is instead the stack? If so, then the engine would try to save a copy of the stack with that filename, and since the filename it's using (with trailing URL) is invalid, you'd get the error.
