Summary | 0009317: Ardour refuses to open projects with the PS-20 VST/VST3 in them | ||||
Description | Every time I save a project with the PS-20 VST or VST3 in it the file doesn't show up in the recent sessions menu and if I try too load it from the file browser it gives me these errors ERROR: Cannot get existing session information from E:\Ardour7\test\test.ardour ERROR: XML error: PCDATA invalid Char value 16 in file:/E:/Ardour7/test/test.ardour at line 593:52 ERROR: XML error: Couldn't find end of Start Tag Controllable line 593 in file:/E:/Ardour7/test/test.ardour at line 593:52 ERROR: XML error: attributes construct error in file:/E:/Ardour7/test/test.ardour at line 593:52 ERROR: XML error: invalid character in attribute value in file:/E:/Ardour7/test/test.ardour at line 593:52 ERROR: XML error: PCDATA invalid Char value 16 in file:/E:/Ardour7/test/test.ardour at line 592:52 ERROR: XML error: Couldn't find end of Start Tag Controllable line 592 in file:/E:/Ardour7/test/test.ardour at line 592:52 ERROR: XML error: attributes construct error in file:/E:/Ardour7/test/test.ardour at line 592:52 ERROR: XML error: invalid character in attribute value in file:/E:/Ardour7/test/test.ardour at line 592:52 ERROR: XML error: PCDATA invalid Char value 16 in file:/E:/Ardour7/test/test.ardour at line 593:52 ... the name of the save file here was test since I was trying to reproduce the bug. It also gives the same errors inside Ardour if I have a glitched file on my hard drive when I stat a new session. | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | 1. Create a session 2. Add PS-20 VST or VST3 3. Save session 4. Try to reload the saved project | ||||

Thanks the .zip was helpful. Issue understood: This is caused by invalid parameter name provided by the plugin Controllable name="Envelope Generator 1 - Velocity Amount" id="485" flags="" value="0" parameter="106" |

Is there something I can do to fix this? Sorry this is my first time reporting a bug for ardour so I don't know how support works for ardour normally . Thanks for the cause of the issue in any case :) |

On order to load the session, you could edit the the .ardour session file in a text editor and remove any chars that are not UTF-8 > ERROR: XML error: PCDATA invalid Char value 16 in file:/E:/Ardour7/test/test.ardour at line 593:52 here line 593 in the file, char 52 on that line. Since Ardour 7.4.2 (or later, available from https://nightly.ardour.org/ a few hours from now) ,Ardour does no longer write invalid UTF-8 from plugins. Sadly the 7.4 release process was already underway, and this fix was a bit too late. > Is there something I can do to fix this? Depends, if you can write C++ source code, if so you might have come up with a solution like https://github.com/Ardour/ardour/commit/4b77ecbe8303cb2102dd77a04b92be0103bd008b https://github.com/Ardour/ardour/commit/df298c6046d4a3fd4f8b4ba81845d4623804eb46 |
