Hazel Shell Scripts Suddenly Stop Working

Hi,

New to the forum here. I've been debugging this issue for a few days now with no luck.

I use a combination of Hazel and the TVNamer application to name and sort video files. Up until last week, everything was running just fine and now Hazel doesn't seem to run the shell scripts. All other hazel rules run just as before and TVNamer works just fine when run directly from Terminal, but they don't seem to want to work together anymore.

I've checked the log (repeatedly) and I don't see any continuous error messages, but the rules aren't firing for some reason. However, when I test my files with each individual rule, they match.

Sorry if this is a bunch of rambling, but I'm really not sure what caused the issue or (more importantly) how to fix it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just updated Hazel and my rules seem to be working again. Not entirely sure what the issue was besides being behind on an update though.

Before I updated, I checked the rule status and, while the rule was matching, the file was not ever being processed for some reason. Weird. At least it's working now though. Thanks anyway!
