I have posted this on google-apps-script-issues (https://code.google.com/p/google-apps-script-issues/issues/detail?id=4723&can=4&colspec=Stars%20Opened%20ID%20Type%20Status%20Summary%20Component%20Owner) but with no response I am getting desperate as all my sheets and scripts are breaking down. So I hope someone here might have encountered this and have some idea for me how to handle this.
Some of my exiting scripts (including some in spreadsheets) suddenly started throwing the exception 'Library with identifier LabelServices is missing (perhaps it was deleted?)'.
I tried deleting the library reference in some of the scripts that were throwing this error and re-adding it but the same error comes up. I even defined a new library with the same name and try to use it instead. Still the same error.
Most likely a related error, when trying to open project properties to these scripts I see the message 'Something went wrong. Please reload.' and the hourglass never stops. This happens at both standalone scripts and ones embeded in spreadsheets.
Please note that if I add the same library to a new script then there is no problem and the library works perfectly.
I would like to add that even if I remove the library and also any calls or references to the library the problem still persists.
Link to a script where this happens is available at https://script.google.com/d/1ptevXwu25z9Vo88zX0XOyaQk5pE5MmzwDbb-lMglNY1lzz1HBBiAeJxn/edit?usp=drive_web
You can copy it and play with it. You should get the same problem.
Appreciate any help!!!
Andrew. First of all thank you as you triggered something in my mind. I went all the way bottom up and checked each script and a library it was calling. There were obviously dependencies, however nothing that should have been a problem. a couple of libraries even though in development mode seem to cause a problem. I had to create a new version but it was not enough just to update their version in other scripts. In the calling scripts I had to remove all libraries and re-add them one by one while testing whether the project properties shows up or not. I just wish Google would have a utility to clearly highlight what was wrong because I can't figure it out though I went twice through their documentation in regard to libraries and development mode. Since I have about 30 libraries or so, not to mention spreadsheets and apps it took me nearly a whole day... Thanks again!
To all, it seems that there is a problem where sometimes libraries get out of sync (at least that's the best way I can describe it). You may need to create new versions for the libraries (even though these are in development mode. And in each problematic script remove and re-add the libraries (in at lease a couple of transactions - first remove and confirm then add - and better one at the time while checking that your project properties opens properly). This solved the problem for me.

For some reason, PhpStorm has decided to all of a sudden get stuck at "Loading project...", which seems to be at the step of "Scanning files to index...".
No matter how long I leave it it doesn't get any further, and the window reports it is "Not Responding".
I've read a potential solution is to "Invalidate caches", but that's pretty hard to do when I can't even get the program to function.
How can I do this step manually, or is this the correct way to handle this?
I even tried creating an empty folder and opening that as a new project, but same issue.
I've had a long-standing problem that every so often, when I open an SSIS package (2012), the designer pane is blank (all white).
If I try to view the code, it comes up, but the file name in the tab shows up as blank.
If I try to execute it, I get a message saying "Unexpected internal error: " -- and nothing else.
Rebuilding doesn't seem to help.
Unloading / Reloading the project doesn't help.
If I try to save the file, I get an error, "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
Closing the entire application usually does the trick, but when I have dozens of packages in one solution, it's brutally slow.
I've noticed one other fix, which is to rename the package, which is obviously not ideal... but it does seem to indicate that the name of the package is what's causing the problem. If I rename the package back to the original name, the problem re-appears.
I've also tried deleting the metadata for the graphical rendering, but that doesn't do anything either.
Curious if anyone has seen this problem and has a solution. I saw nothing helpful online.
For me this problem was resolved in two simple steps below.
Rebuild the Project.
Close Visual Studio & reopen.
I know this is an old post, but this is a common thing I run into and I want to make sure its answered.
Open the package that gives you the white screen.
While open, rename the package (suffix it with 1).
Close the package.
While closed, rename the package back to the original name.
This has worked every time for me.
Something happened to corrupt an ABBYY FlexiCapture project of mine. In the Document Definition Editor, when I expand a couple of my repeating groups, I get:
Internal Program error:
.\DocumentTemplate\TemplateNode.cpp, 626.
Then I can click OK and some of the children elements will load and some will not. This means I cannot update rules in the ones that don't show up.
Is there a known way to fix this? Right now I'm rebuilding the whole document definition.
I'm using the distributed version of the software.
InternalProgramError is usually some kind of unhanded error, thus reference to the CPP file code line. I have no information regarding this specific error, unfortunately, but the fact that it worked before and started to produce the error some time after use indicates that the setup was correct but got corrupted at some point. Otherwise, if you made a change to the template, and started to see that error, undoing that change is the way to go. Usually it is pretty rare to cause these errors in the template modification in the first place, unless you are doing something noncustomary with the UI, or in scripts.
PHPStorm newbie question.
I'd installed PHPStorm yesterday and was very impressed. It identified countless small issues with my code, like referencing non-static classes statically - I loved that it highlighted the problems in my open PHP files. There was a bit long list in the "inspection results" section (I think) which identified errors in various groupings. Great!
Today I can't get it to identify any errors at all, other than "Typos". Same project.
Clearly I messed up a a configuration somewhere, but I'm pretty baffled as to where. I've been through the Preferences section for the last hour trying different things, but can't get it to work as before.
Any tips...?

Editor not doing proper code highlighting or not working inspections can be caused by the corrupted caches.
The solution is to do File | Invalidate Caches and restart the IDE.
Invalidating caches didn't worked for me.
In my case inspections were disabled because I had activated a wrong profile that wasn't checking PHP issues.
So be sure to check the used profile:
In the company I am I was asked to write an autoupdate function a la chrome. I.e. It should check periodically whether a new version is available, download the new version and apply it silently the next time the application starts.
I already have something up and running but it is more like a dirty hack than something I feel happy about it. So, I would like to know how to design and implement such a solution. My horrible hack works as this:
Have a mechanism to check whether a new version exists (a database query or a web service)
Download a full zip with the whole new version.
Check file signature. If everything went alright, set a registry value: must update to true.
When the application restarts, if the must update value is true, launch an update program and exist.
The update deletes the contents of the application folder, unzips the update and replaces the old contents, launches the application and exits.
Now, I would like to change it, so it works cleaner. I am planning to send the update as a bsdiff file. It gets downloaded. But the question is, what happens next?
When do apply the update?
Who is in charge of applying the patch? is it the program itself or is it a third program, as I did, which is in charge of applying the patch and relaunch the application?
If your going down the C++ route you can go to chromium and download the Chrome source code and dig around to see how the update is done, this might give you a better idea on how to approach it. Here's an article that might help.
If your familiar with .NET the recently release nuget also has an auto update feature that might be useful to look at, you can get the source code from here. David Ebbo has a blog about how its done here.
I'm not up to date on Delphi but you might be able to use either of the above options.
The workflow you proposed is more or less like it should work, but there's no need to re-invent the wheel - there are plenty libraries out there that will do this for you. Using a 3rd party library has the benefit of keeping your code cleaner while making sure the dirty process of auto-update is contained and working flawlessly.
Trust me, I know. I'm the author of NAppUpdate, an app update framework for .NET (which you might want to try out or learn from).
So, after giving it a lot of though, this is what I came with (for active directory I will refer to the directory where the main program lies, active program is the main program and update program is the one that replaces the active program and its resource files):
The active program checks if there is a new version every certain amount of time. If so, download it
Prepare new version in a separate folder (this can be done by copying the contents of the directory with the program to a subdirectory and applying a binary patch, or simply unziping the new version).
Set a flag that indicates that a new version is ready.
When a program is exiting (and one has to control for different interrupts here):
The active program checks the new version ready flag. Launch the update program and exit.
The update program checks if it can write in the active directory. If so, replaces the contents with the prepared version.
The update program has to recheck links and update them accordingly.
So guys, if you have a better workflow, please tell me.
You could literally use the Google Chrome update workflow by using the Google Chrome updater:
