hello!
i am running media mover on two pages on the same server and on both i cannot edit my configurations anymore. when i go here:
www.example.com/admin/build/media_mover
and want to edit one of my configurations, it shows me the right url (www.example.com/admin/build/media_mover/config/5/edit) but i remain here: www.example.com/admin/build/media_mover
i only noticed that with the version beta6. before that it worked fine.
thx for help

I've just been playing with MM and am experiencing the same problem, I can't view or edit an existing configuration.

Same version, same problem: can't view or edit. Any suggestions?

Changing priority to critical.

Tried creating a new configuration - this was successful. Then tried to edit new configuration - no good, didn't work.

The "run" is also not functioning.

Please try the development version- there are fixes in the dev branch that should fix this.

Status: Active » Fixed

I can confirm that the "edit", "run", and "view" links all work now using the dev version from 2010-Jan-26.

One question though, when editing a configuration the changeable options aren't the same as when first creating the configuration. For example you can no longer choose or change which harvest module to use. The only editable option is the configuration of that previously chosen module. Is this by design? I would assume that "edit" would allow the same configuration options that are available when first creating the configuration.

It's by design because if you could change what the actions are that a configuration does after the fact, previously harvested files would not match the new settings. Odd, yes, but I think that it is important- not sure.

Not sure I agree. I think that if the configuration is being edited that there's a good chance the process and hence the output is problematic and would be discarded anyway. Maybe a CCK like approach could be taken (a text warning is given stating that changing this setting could lead to data loss).

Without full editing capability a duplicate function on the main configuration page would be helpful: "run", "edit", "duplicate".

Unfortunately the cases are not the same. Because media mover files carry data beyond file paths, this is too dangerous to allow on a production environment. If you need to do this, export your configuration and build a new one with different actions. In Media Mover 2 there will be a clone option which will make this easier.

I see your point and look forward to someday having the clone option.
