Crash when using Advert Pattern Wizzard

Hi,

I'm trying to use the Advert Pattern Wizard to generate some advert overlays. However it keeps getting me this error :

Any idea ? I can get you more details of what I'm doing (overlay every 30 minutes, allow an early start of 120secs, using a begin ID and an end ID, nothing fancy)

Kind regards,

André

The issue is now fixed in the new v3.0.11.31!

That probably looks like you might have used a illegal character within your Slot-Name ("20130205_0015").
E.g. a slot name should not directly start with a number, but with a character 'A'-'Z' or 'a'-'z' or the character '_'.

As far as I can see, there is an additional check in my code missing to validate this!
What you can do to resolve/workaround this bug, is to use an appropriate 'Prefix' within the Advert Pattern Wizard.
E.g. prefix the overlay/slot name with for example: "ADD_".

However, I'll add an adidtional check in the next version!

Hi Bernd,

Thanks, using a prefix did indeed do the job !

Note, that the bug itself is also fixed in the latest v3.0.11.31.
Sa such even not using any 'Prefix' will now work as expected.
