The problem is that you have a "." in both your filename and your
description. Unfortunately rails can't cope with that so you will
need to use a different name and description.

Other than that, it all seems to work for me.

Oh, and I don't think public=no will do what you expect. It won't
mark the trace as private, it will add public=no as a tag for the
trace.
