Error in use of fields.ini

[pwg]

Hi Steve,

I'm getting an error from Pear like this whenever I use a 'fields.ini' file in the ../tables directory, even an empty file with that name. An empty file with the name 'relationships.ini' or 'valuelists.ini' causes no errors.

Fatal error: [pear_error: message="Syntax error in '/Users/peter/Sites/StandardsDB/tables/SPS/fields.ini' at line 1." code=0 mode=return level=notice prefix="" info=""]On line 785 of file /Users/peter/Sites/dataface/Dataface/Table.php in function printStackTrace()

It doesn't seem to matter what is in line 1 of the file. An empty file or a file configured as described in the manual produces the same error. It's not a permissions issue as far as I can tell.

Even tried replacing /dataface with a new installation. Same thing.

Any suggestions?

Steve,

Please ignore the error report.

It seems there was something weird in the file(s) that I couldn't see even with BBEdit showing invisibles. I made a new fields.ini file with Vi and it worked fine! Who knows?
