I haven't been able to reproduce this issue. This is what I've done:
Ensure that /home/guillermo/cocotero doesn't exist with rm -rf /home/guillermo/cocotero
Run Briefcase v1.12.2 with the command: java -jar briefcase.jar -sd /home/guillermo/cocotero --pull_aggregate -url http://aggregate-gigi.appspot.com -p aggregate -u administrator -id dates-sandbox
I get this output:
The directory /home/guillermo/cocotero/ODK Briefcase Storage doesn't exist. Creating it
Start pull form Dates sandbox
Fetching form definition
resolving against briefcase form definitions
I've also tried to do a pull & export in one command (since I know your scripts use that). Running this command also works: -jar briefcase.jar -sd /home/guillermo/cocotero --pull_aggregate -url http://aggregate-gigi.appspot.com -p aggregate -u administrator -id dates-sandbox -e -f dates-sandbox.csv -ed /tmp
The directory /home/guillermo/cocotero/ODK Briefcase Storage doesn't exist. Creating it
Start pull form Dates sandbox
Fetching form definition
resolving against briefcase form definitions
Exporting form Dates sandbox (dates-sandbox) to: /tmp
Export has started
Exported 100% of the submissions
Export has ended
Exported 1 submission
In both cases I get no error. Maybe you're doing something different?
Hi again,
Thanks for looking in to this and confirming not a systematic bug. As with so many things, moving to a fresh download directory seemed to fix this, but I guess it doesn't answer why I'd see it in the first place. Perhaps we should put this one down to the mysteries!
It happened to me trying to push a form to aggregate server, had to make the directory first in "/ODK Briefcase Storage/forms" and copy the xml; fortunately, you don't need to abandon the command line for this
