I have no clue what a narrative is but don’t you dare ever go and delete one.

Today we got an error message that basically said: "No more error info available."  So I started trying a bunch of different things trying to figure out what was wrong. After working on this for over  4 HOURS, I come across a line in the debug log that says "Premature end of binary stream after reading 0 bytes".

Searching their website for that text lead me to exactly 1 hit.  The result said that the problem was that a process item had a "narrative" and then someone probably removed it.

Normally, I would have dismissed this error as unrelated.  However, earlier I ran a dif tool that I wrote (why Lombardi doesn’t know how to write this kind of tool is beyond me) and saw that someone had changed a description and removed a "narative".

So - I stuck a narrative back in and now everything works.  Another 4 hours of my life I won’t get back because of Teamworks.

I’m just lucky I’d written my own dif tool or I’d still be looking.  I pity anyone that doesn’t have the ability to do a DIF on Teamworks stuff.
