We recently noticed that the HWS live GUI wasn't working. In trying to troubleshoot this, I found that there are a few different instances of it - gitcommon area, userapps, personal alias's, and maybe others that I dont know about. They were either copies of the git code, pointed at different branches of the git repo, or modified versions, but none were consistent. I've now corrected the new path for the hws data directory (alog84865), and updated the git repo with the changes. The version in userapps I've just copied from this for now so it continues to work, but I'd like to change that in the future.
Long story short, it should work now.
