Database not found about search-omnifocus HOT 13 CLOSED

Try deleting this file then run the workflow again:

/Users/freek/Library/Application Support/Alfred 3/Workflow Data/net.rhydlewis.alfred.searchomnifocus/db_path.cpickle

from search-omnifocus.

@alehandrof if you type this command (note, should be all on 1 line) into Terminal.app what does it show you?

cat /Users/alex/Library/Application Support/Alfred 3/Workflow Data/net.rhydlewis.alfred.searchomnifocus/settings.json

My file shows:

{
"__workflow_last_version": "1.1.15"
}

If you don't see that, try deleting the settings.json file to see if that forces the workflow to recreate it. @deanishe do you know what might be causing this?

from search-omnifocus.

Just a thought, but they just added client side encryption. Not sure if that's related

from search-omnifocus.

I don't have a ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 3/Workflow Data folder at all.

from search-omnifocus.

@timbroder don't think it's this as the locations haven't - to my knowledge - changed as part of the encryption changes but thanks for the suggestion

from search-omnifocus.

@macfreek @alehandrof can you confirm which version of the workflow you're using please?

1. Open Alfred preferences and right click on the Search Omnifocus workflow
2. Choose Open in Finder
3. Open the file called 'version'
4. If you don't see 1.1.15 then please upgrade to the latest version (https://github.com/rhydlewis/search-omnifocus/releases/download/v1.1.15/Search.OmniFocus.v1.1.15.alfredworkflow)

@macfreek in your case, I'm wondering if the db_path.cpickle file has an incorrect or empty reference to the Omnifocus database. Suggestion from @deanishe to delete the file should help here.

@alehandrof, do you see the same issue as @macfreek? Can you post the debug information from Alfred?

from search-omnifocus.

@alehandrof sorry, didn't spot that you already commented about the version number in #12. Please post the debug log to help me investigate. Thanks

from search-omnifocus.

Thanks, @deanishe, your suggestion works. The file did indeed contain a path referencing the MAS location. (I did a quick strings of the file).

I'm running version 1.1.11 of the workflow, as that was the latest I found at http://www.packal.org/workflow/search-omnifocus. I'll update to the Github version in a moment.

A quick check revealed that the workflow file I installed did not originally contain a db_path.cpickle file. This means it was created on my Mac. What I suspect happened is as follows: when I first used this workflow, OmniFocus 2 was not installed (my trigger to buy the upgrade from OF 1 to OF 2 was triggered that it was not supported by this workflow). Apparently, when no valid path is found, search.py created a pickle file with the MAS path.

Regardless of what's in the cpickle file, I expect search.py to ignore (or recreate) the db_path.cpickle file, if it's content is invalid, because the file can't be found.

Thanks for letting me know that Packal is out of date. I've updated it now.

@rhydlewis that was it! The settings.json was there, but it was empty. After I deleted it the workflow now works again!

from search-omnifocus.

Whoop whoop! Glad it's working now.

Just wanted to chime in and say that deleting the cpickle file did the trick for me immediately. Thank you @deanishe!

Copy paste-able for anyone else:

rm ~/Library/Application\ Support/Alfred\ 3/Workflow\ Data/net.rhydlewis.alfred.searchomnifocus/db_path.cpickle
