After Ableton Live 11.2.7 update newly created scripts are not in preference list

Submitted by HDV on Tue, 12/20/2022 - 14:42

Last week Live has automatically updated to V11.2.7
When I now create a new script, the script is created correctly by CSS (no errors in log) and is stored at the right place, but it´s not listed in Live´s preference list! Restarts don´t change anything! Any hints ????

I am seeing this issue as well on a Mac

Problem can be solved by checking the settings for "Live version" : select in the right list "Live 11.2.7".

im also having this issue. im running live 11.2.6 - was on live 11.2.5. ive updated the live version in remotify settings to 11.2.6 but after restart live still doesnt see the new script even though i can see it in the midi remote script folder in the mac finder.

anyone got any suggestions to get live to see the new remote script?

I'm having the same issue on 11.2.7. CSS shows the right Live version. Scripts are installing in the correct folder. But they're not showing up in Live midi settings. I'm on Windows 11.

Well now at least I'm getting errors in the log.
Here's what I've got:

I'm a total noob, so I'm not sure what I need to be looking for here.

VZI & Bradford, please send your scripts over to me here: john at remoitfy.io
along with your error logs and I will take a look.
You're errors totally separate so it's doubtful they are to do with the same thing.

Bradford - ensure you are using 'python 3' to generate your script. This is in the settings of Control Surface Studio.

I've test a script in Live 11.2.7 and it loads/works correctly so I don't that is the issue.

Thanks

I followed tylerputnam's paths above and now the script are showing up in Ableton, so that's a start.

John, I'm sending you the info you requested, though I have a feeling the errors that are showing up now are due to my inexperience with CSS. But I'd appreciate any feedback you have.

Thanks.

Also having this problem on 11.2.7 on Mac. The paths are all correct and the version is set correctly. When importing nothing happens, no error message either. Downgrading live to 11.2.5 resolved the issue.
