Vanilla 6.22 install with ver 3.1 of the module. Freshly created Drupal site, went right to create a conenction and then a layout. Upon returning from creating the layout:

Unkown FileMaker error
Unkown FileMaker error
warning: Illegal offset type in /home/jgabler/SWA/drupal-6.22/sites/all/modules/filemaker/filemaker.module on line 1609.

Have you considered creating dev and/or beta versions before generating a flurry of release versions?

A few items:

1. I believe this to be due to incorrect authentication information and not a change that I made in the code.

2. I have had dev versions for a while and _nobody_ has tested them or provided feedback. I am new to contributing to open source and might not be doing this the best way. Do you have any ideas how I can encourage feedback?

3. I added an error check to better handle broken connections. This new code is in the 3.x-dev branch, and will be in 3.2.

Improved error handling here.

Please note that all of the changes are on the dev branch and I would be grateful for any feedback or testing.

Hi tedstein,

I'm working with a client who is very interested in using your module, so I have been giving it a lot of testing. I apologize if some of my reports were premature. I also have a patch coming for the 'spaces in fields issue'.

Speaking of premature, I think this bug report came from not having the API in the right place -- stupid mistake on my part. Once I put it in, I'm seeing that 6.x-3.1 is the most robust version so far, by far. Good work.

Getting users and testers is a chick/egg issue unfortunately. If things aren't working to (an arbitrarily decided) usable extent in the interested party's environment, they might not be inclined to use it or at least continuing to try to get it to work. In my case, I'm going to use your module, and perhaps tweak it, or write it myself from scratch. Why recreate the wheel?

You might want to consider some way of advertising your module within the Filemaker universe. Within Drupal, you know its easily found.

I am grateful for any bug reports and no worries.

I am kinda in my own little world here building this module and would love to coordinate. If you are interested, you can use my Dupal contact form and send me a phone number or e-mail address.
