Recover lost files?

I moved from windows Vista to windows 7 recently. For some strange reason some files (also edited by Komodo edit 5.1) I thought were properly backed up appeared to have never existed at all. Some digging around showed some residuals of these files in:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\ActiveState\KomodoEdit\5.1\host-Laptop\codeintel\db\ruby\b0388af9ca630b0544c3e6d0e263018a\some_unreadable_files

Is it possible to recover the code from these files based on this?

Indentation Overridden in File Even Though Settings Prevent

FYI, I have Edit | Preferences | Editor | Indentation set to disallow file contents to override settings, but one of my Django/HTML files overrode the settings anyway ... even though its checkbox to allow settings override was also unchecked.

It was using spaces instead of tabs. v5.2.2

By explicitly setting the file to use tabs, without enabling any checkbox to override default editor settings, I was able to achieve the desired behavior.

Default whitespace coloring

I've done a clean install of Windows 7 from XP, and I've reinstalled K5.2.2, and I'm trying to get all my settings again.

However, I can't find the setting for setting a default for whitespace. I usually like a very light yellow (255,255,240) for the background, but I'm having no luck finding the setting mechanism.

Thanks for any help!

Code Completion

Hi,

I've just started to use komodo again after a little break and I can't seem to get completion with Python to work like I would expect it to.

The python language completion is there, but the introspection/completion is really sparse. Komodo will not do completion for things like variables and function local to the file I'm working in, through I'm ctrl+j'ing away :-) Is there a setting I need to tweak?

Also I would like to know if there is a way to enable completion on the attributes of a module that is imported into the root namespace?

Komodo Edit file encoding

What is the correct file encoding setting? It's set as western european file encoding but should it be something else for php like ASCII or UTF-8?
I don't understand what it means, could someone point me in the right direction?

Komodo 5.2 Javascript debugging with mod_rewrite

I am looking for suggestions on how to get Komodo 5.2 debugging working with Javascript. The server is CentOS (Apache 2 running mod_rewrite).

My .htaccess remaps all URL requests to an index.php file at the root level. I am using the URI hierarchy as parameters (i.e., www.mydomain.com/username/pageno/param1/param2

The problem is that Komodo always complains that it can't find the file when debugging in Javascript. Debugging PHP works fine.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Komodo Edit wont function under Vista

Hi

I have been happily using Komodo Edit on a Vista machine for some time. I have just created a fresh install, and have fully updated Vista and installed Komodo Edit. The program opens successfully but is unresponsive and when you try to take an action, e.g create a project nothing happens.

Is this a known error, and is there anything I can do about it?

Thanks in advance.

5.1.4 to 5.2.1 update not working for Komodo IDE

I am currently running Komodo IDE 5.1.4 build 30485 on Vista Ultimate 32 bit.
I am having trouble getting the Komodo update to install.
When I start Komodo in the morning, there is a notification that tells me Komodo 5.2.1 is available. I click through to download and install. Komodo says it will restart in order to update but it comes back quickly still at 5.1.4.

I've even tried downloading the install package, but that only gives me "repair" or "uninstall" options.
Is there anything I could try to get this update done?

Python error with regsvr32

I'm having trouble registering a file, and am trying to narrow down why.

Running cmd.exe as administrator, regsvr32 I get two errors.

"Unknown Error : Python"

"The module "c:\windows\system32\scrobj.dll" was loaded but the call to DllRegisterServerEx failed with error code x80020101"

I've searched every single error code that I've gotten. I've also used several versions of activepython and get the same errors.

Other files seem to register fine.

Remote Project Editing - Best Practices ??

I am using IDE 5.2 and have limited success with remote editing. My workstation is Vista Ultimate and the remote files are on an Ubuntu box.

I am able to open remote files, but cannot do a live import . . . folder not visible on network. Open remote will not allow import of full structure and 'import from file system' is disabled.
Eventually I managed a workaround which included :-
1. Create a new project which had to reside on my workstation.
2. Manually create the top-level folders under this project.
3. Manually "import from file system" for each folder
