This turned out to be a nasty bug, and quite hard to track the down the cause.

Accidental send. *sigh* I think the point is.. If the substack is running the script that deletes the mainstack, since the 2 are inextricably linked, the delete fails. If you change your substacks to all be mainstacks in their own right, it should and does work. On Wed, Oct 19, 2016 at 9:55 AM,
