command not available after resubscribing and even after re-installation of Ubiquity
I had a subscription for my own Know Command on github. As it did not update correctly, I unsubscribed, then purged, then subscribed again. Now I can see the entry in the command list - but only the site column (left) is filled in correctly. The entries in the right column (command name, checkbox to use/activate it and description) are missing. The funny thing is: the view source link in the left column works, so the script must actually be (somewhere out) there.
What I tried already is:
* change to Parser 2 syntax and back - no changes
* unsubscribe, purge again, subscribe again - problem persists
* uninstall Ubiquity entirely, re-install, then try with the old version first (command not in command list), upgrade to 0.5 again (command there, but all the old problems back)
By the way: all my settings were back again after reinstallation (i.e. checkboxes for commands activated) - though I'm pretty sure that the ubiquity folder in the extensions folder of my Firefox profile was gone after uninstalling Ubiquity - so where did these settings survive? Any other configuration folders/paths we should know about?

I’m all knocked out

Inappropriate?http://gist.github.com/97683 this one, right?
It works for me. -
Inappropriate?That is one of the old ones. I currently work with http://gist.github.com/82820. Now it works again. It seemed to be some syntax error in the script at that time (though I couldn't figure out what the syntax problem actually was). When I changed the code back to an old version, the command appeared.
The confusing thing (that makes troubleshooting so difficult) was, that after changing the code (and re-subscribing for the update via the green update-link) it looked like before: no command in the right column. I wanted to make a screenshot, so I had to restart Firefox to activate my Screenshot Addon - and after the restart the command was visible all of a sudden!
And I was able to reproduce this error: To avoid confusion I use another gist (http://gist.github.com/55551) now for testing purposes, copied the complete code over there and renamed the command to "knowtest". After subscribing to that gist (same code exept for command name!) the new command did not appear in the right column again. Reflecting the former experiences I restarted the Browser and there it was. Will I have to restart Ubiquity now for every subscription?
My advice:
1. check for the problem with commands not showing up
2. if the syntax of a command is wrong: provide some info about that in the right column (syntax error!)
3. concerning reinstallation: tell people where the config infos reside I mentioned up there, so that they can restart with a clean installation. This helps a lot when troubleshooting!
Thanks a lot and keep going,

I’m able to use my script again

Inappropriate?Some more infos:
Changed description and other code to "Vers. 091105-02. Testversion knowtest"; Feed updated (green Link "An update for this feed is available." without any unsubscribe or purge this time) - neither cmdlist.xhtml shows the new description nor is the updated code used, but when you click "view source" you get the new code! - After Browser restart everything works like you would expect it.
I’m restarting my browser any two minutes and get contradictory information from ubiquity...

Looks like a bug. Can you file a ticket for it?
> 2. if the syntax of a command is wrong: provide some info about that in the right column (syntax error!)
There should be reports in the error console if something went wrong in code evaluation.
