cannot open logfile by clicking

Hi all,

I have a log file where I log urls that I've scraped. No problem!

But in the GUI, sometimes I cannot open the logfile by clicking. It's just black, it's not a link and there's no edit button.

It's 59.8 kb. This only happens sometimes. Any ideas? Thanks!

path is

/home/greencracker/check-a-table-for-a-url/log.log

permissions are -rw-rw-r--

If I try this:

pythonanywhere.com/user/greencracker/files/home/greencracker/check-a-table-for-a-url/log.log?edit

it gives the error "You do not have the permissions to edit /home/greencracker/check-a-table-for-a-url/log.log"

yet nano log.log works

Our editor only supports plain text files. If your file contains non-ASCII characters or null bytes, it won't be openable in the editor. This can happen if the file was written by a process that didn't flush or close it cleanly.

Doh ! ok thanks!!
