How fun.

Rebooted the server and the folder action works for the problem folder.  No Sandboxing smdb deny job-creation.

But now, the child folders  aren't triggering the folder action applied to them and they aren't raising a sandboxing error.

I'm trying this directly on the server.  Even putting up a dialog.  What is it with Folder Actions that makes them so hit and miss?

Nothing coming out in the console.  No dialog indicating the folder action was invoked.

What could prevent a folder action's add files or remove files methods from even being invoked at all?

I should have simply parsed the directory listing for the URL.  This is simply too hit and miss.


This is really annoying, considering I just wasted an hour and a half on it and we have no idea why it started happening in the first place.
