Saving on Bob #2

Hi,

I am in the process of converting my Single file TiddlyWikis to be served on Bob.
The process I have followed is to create a new Wiki in Bob (indexWiki) using the empty edition which then allows me to visit that wiki.
I then use the import feature and select the original (large) File Based Wiki and import all tiddlers (some not imported to equal or later versions).
Looking at the console, we see for some time lots of Purple Error messages eg;

Wikis\TiddlyWiki5\tiddlers\Using a Variable in lists.tid
For Using created date as Unique Tiddler ID, type is application/x-tiddler hasMetaFile is false filepath is C:\Data\TW5\Instances\Bob\Wikis\TiddlyWiki5\tiddlers\Using created date as Unique Tiddler ID.tid
For Using created date as Unique Tiddler ID 1, type is application/x-tiddler hasMetaFile is false filepath is C:\Data\TW5\Instances\Bob\Wikis\TiddlyWiki5\tiddlers\Using created date as Unique Tiddler ID 1.tid

Then we see the tiddlers being saved, eg;


saved file C:\Data\TW5\Instances\Bob\Wikis\TiddlyWiki5\tiddlers\created.tid
saved file C:\Data\TW5\Instances\Bob\Wikis\TiddlyWiki5\tiddlers\Created as admin.tid
saved file C:\Data\TW5\Instances\Bob\Wikis\TiddlyWiki5\tiddlers\Created By Tony modified by admin.tid
saved file C:\Data\TW5\Instances\Bob\Wikis\TiddlyWiki5\tiddlers\Creating new child tiddlers.tid
saved file C:\Data\TW5\Instances\Bob\Wikis\TiddlyWiki5\tiddlers\CSS and Java Script tabs.tid
saved file C:\Data\TW5\Instances\Bob\Wikis\TiddlyWiki5\tiddlers\CSS Test and working.tid
saved file C:\Data\TW5\Instances\Bob\Wikis\TiddlyWiki5\tiddlers\Custom filters for status sets.tid

After the last save I see "No filename given!" on its own line.

The wiki folder does contain the 1200+ tiddlers from the original wiki

During the above we get red bars on the New wiki, we get the Save icon going from Red to blue and in the end we receive the "Please save and reload to allow changes to plugins to take effect" message. With a Blue Save Button. If I attempt to reload, I get the "This page is asking you to confirm that you want to leave - data you have entered may not be saved" Leave Page/Stay On Page, If I Click the blue Save icon I can save a single file wiki, a little larger than the original single file wiki.

If I reload with Leave Page (since nothing else works) I get a Blank Tab at the address http://127.0.0.1:8084/wikiname but curiously it now has the index wikis favicon on the browser tag (lost previous one) PS I am serving on 8084 and 8085

Also even the Index wiki is not allowing me to close the tab without selecting Leave Page.

If I browse to the New Wikis folder with TiddlyServer it finds and serves the TiddlyWiki OK

If I close and Restart TiddlyWiki it all comes up fine, but still the link to the new wiki results in a blank page
I am also not sure how to correctly remove a broken "Available Wiki"

Of Note: is a number of my large tiddlywikis have migrated fine.

Thanks in Advance
