Yeah, I do see that every once in a while. I have a very simple script, that looks perfect, but will always return "syntax error". I copied the text, pasted into a text editor and checked all the indents and tabs, then recreated the script. Problem went away. What was interesting is that I didnt change the code. And even thought the indents were the same, re-adding them might have solved it. Dont know for sure, but I dont see this enough to cause me problems.

We have been seeing a number of instances where python scripts fail due to an apparent "syntax error" but the syntax is correct and simply storing the method restores it to functionality. Anyone else seeing this?

How do you mean "fail"?

Often times, if you have an error, save, test, and then use the back button, you'll see the old syntax error, even though the contents are the new (and correct) version.

If you just revisit the script (click on the id in the breadcrumbs) the message will go away.
