Has anyone ever encountered a "Error setting Process Property" error when trying to save a TI process?

All I did was set up an ASCII data source and set the variable names and types-- when trying to save I got the error which is, not surprisingly, totally unhelpful....

Hi Matt,
Are you running a Windows or Unix server?
Jim.

Hi Matt,
Have you tried to save the process with "Save As ..." and giving it another name?
Closing and reopening after saving the process might be helpful as well.
Good luck,
Anthony

I'm running TM1 9.1 SP2 U3 on Windows Server 2003 x64.

This was a new process started from scratch; opening another process and "Save As" works, but fails once I change the data source and variables. Other existing processes open and save just fine. I suspect that the problem might be because is my data source is the tm1server.log file. That file is not normally locked, but maybe some conflict arises when I try to save.
I have a perl script I use to automatically email me errors in the logs, but I was hoping to rewrite it in TI to work in TM1 natively. I'll post the perl script soon, just need to add some comments-- some people might find it handy.
Thanks,
Matt

I've had this problem when I have set the delimiter to "Other" and entered more than one character, as I wanted to delimit by 3 spaces. Although it allows you to enter more than one character, it won't save the process. This is in 9.1 Sp3.

That's it-- exactly what I was trying to do. You'd think if only one character was allowed they'd limit the size of the box (or actually do input validation or at least a descriptive error).
Thanks!
