Lesley, your posting this information is helpful and appreciated. However, without a lot more details, it is unlikely for most of your recent posts that anyone will be able to provide you with answers to why these problems would occur, or to formulate a solution. Saying that a problem happened “during testing” does not tell us enough to give you answers. The error message in this example appears clear enough: The storage card was removed before the ballot station had had a chance to finish writing whatever it needed to write to the card. But you don’t say here what context you were in, so we can’t even guess what it was trying to write. It doesn’t even say that the card was removed, for certain. For each of these problems, the key is to find a way to reproduce the problem. Ideally you want to be able to consistently reproduce the problems with a cookbook of steps. Sometimes that is not possible, in which case try to supply as many steps as possible, and some statistics. “If I do A, B, C ten times, then X happens at least once.” Work directly with Ravina if you need help.
