Description

I don't know how or when this happened, but in the module's "Starting Area", instead of my area's tag, I had a DB URL instead. E.g., bw-db://.\BWDATOOLSET/bw_dragonage_content?resrefid=21717. I've only seen this happen when inspecting other modules I haven't loaded yet.

This is an issue because it prevented a new campaign.cif file from being generated (I was trying to figure out why my module script wasn't getting changed from module_core - this was why). During export you get the error: Could not get starting areas resource information. and the warning Some resources failed their post processing. Please see below for more details.

Workarounds

Open your module properties, click the "Starting Area" and find your area again in the file-chooser dialog.
