Has anyone seen this error before? The only mention of it on the forums, the best suggestion 4 years ago was "call support".

I get this error when trying to create a new Named Query or folder in the named queries.

I think this happened after going into a query binding on an object and hitting the "Convert to Named Query" button, then clicking OK without filling in the name field.

I went out on the server and renamed the named-query folder in the C:\Program Files\Inductive Automation\Ignition\data\projects(MY PRJECT NAME)\ignition path but it didn't change anything. I can't tell where Ignition is looking to see whatever a "non-folder" is.

thanks  
Chris

Did you restart the Ignition Gateway after renaming that folder?
