[#4792] Auto Action 6.0 deletes code on installation

thank

I don´t see any linebreaks other than regular linebreaks in my code. So I don´t think this is a proper solution as I don´t want to alter my code just to make it compatible with the upgrade to Auto Actions 6.0.

When I copy my code from a working 5.1.3 installation it works fine on the 6.0.0 installation so I do not see any need for altering my code. The issue is Auto Action 6.0 not my code.

Ok but have you install the night build ??

Yes I had installed the nightly build but it did not solve the issue.

I asked to alter your code to help me perform additional testing. This allows a test to be done while I handle the dozens of support posts. This means I won't have to do the test after handling dozens of support posts as you would've already confirmed my suspicions and know where to begin debugging. I'm not asking you to perform the test to complete you upgrade, but more so to perform the test to help fix the problem. You don't have to of course, but please understand why I ask for users to perform tests. The alternative is it's simply going to take more time to investigate and fix otherwise.

To perform the test have a clone of your old site, remove the line breaks (just backspace so your code is 1 giant string, it's fine if the textarea overflows as long as there's no linebreak), then upgrade to latest CB Auto Actions nightly and see if all your code is still there. I believe what is going on is possibly a bug with our backwards compatibility for INI strings (we used to store params as INI, they are now JSON).

I see. Your suggestion sounded like a final fix for me. On my next upgrade test I will let you know it removing line breaks will change anything.

I've been testing the legacy INI parsing and could not duplicate this issue. I'm wondering if it's something specific in the code causing it. If possible please provide the code that's causing problems.
