Unable to export Scraping Session

I have been recieving the following error message when attempting to export my scraping session files to my repo and I can't figure out why. I can work around it by coping the scrapeable files out of the scraping session to a new one, and then deleting the old one and renaming the new one to be exactly the same as the old one and then it exports fine. Would love to not have to bother with this almost every time i need to export a scraping session. The error message i get when i try without doing the above is: An error occurred while exporting this scraping session. The error message was: null Generally errors that occur when exporting .... Im using the defualt utf-8 character set and didn't see this error until just recently

Can you tell me your edition

Can you tell me your edition and version of screen-scraper? Also, what is your OS?

Do you have an error.log in the log subdirectory?
