Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 Silent Install

I have followed adobe's instructions on how to perform a
silent install with the preserialization built in to the silent
install. I recieve an exit code 6 when trying to use the
Application Override file that Adobe has provided. Any
suggestions?

Hmm. That sounds a rather lame response. Not your fault, of
course, but
if Adobe gives instructions for silent install, their
technical support
people should be able to provide you with assistance. I'll
try to draw
this to someone's attention to see if you can get an answer.

Hello,
what concerns your wish about an uinstaller, so you should use
https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs3-product-downloads.html >>> AND note this "Read before you download a CS3 product". And esp, "You need your CS3 serial number to complete the installation" but this shouldn't be a problem for you, because you had an official version and so you can use all these informations like https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html

CS3 Silent Install

I am trying to setup network deployment of CS3 in our office. We are about 60 users and the longest part of setting up a new user is CS 3 Install. I want to get this automated so I can run it as a script with my netinstall.
I have read through the adobe documentaiton which seems to have all the info in it. I have gone through all the steps and have manged to get it to run the install but it alway s errors out with End Adobe Setup. Exit code: 6. After that error then I am back to square one and every time I try rerun the install I get End Adobe Setup. Exit code: 7
I have had a browse around the internet and it seem quite a common problem, but all the info I can find relates to windows installs. It seems there is not much diffrance between the windows and mac side in terms of commands to run so I have got as far as I can now.
I have noticed that when i run the install I the installer creates a folder in my /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Installers/ this folder is a seems to be a reandom genrated number and in it, it dumps a setup.app file and some subfolders. It then goes onto to create a folder called /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Installers/R1 which it seem to either move or compile the data from the first folder into.
When this is done the script errors out. I have noticed that setup.app does not show up it's icon correctly and will not run. It's like the file has erred in the copying process.
Has any one had any luck with setting this up and have any ideas on how to fix my issue.
Thanks

TBH, the biggest problem you are going to face is not the initial installation but the running of all the software patches afterwards. With a disk image of the CS3 disks, install will complete in about 10-15 minutes. Upgrades OTOH may take up to an hour to complete (especially if you forget you're babysitting one) with numerous points where user intervention is required. Also, you need to run the upgrade check from within Adobe Acrobat or Acrobat won't get upgraded.
I had a long treatise on how to make a working CS3 silent install posted on here at one point, but it was apparently misplaced in the recent Forum Fiasco er, Upgrade... Luckily, I took a text clipping of it and saved it. Hopefully it is helpful...
BTW, another way to fix error code 7's... flush the contents of /Library/Applications Support/Adobe/Installers. I had a session in there that I apparently failed to delete correctly resulting in more error 7 misery.
Failing that, the only other way I have been successful in clearing inexplicable error 7's is to do an install using the GUI and then immediately uninstall, again using the GUI. Hopefully that will clear up any lingering weirdness.
And my final problem that caused the other 2-3 hours of failures? Somehow OS X had appended an invisible ".xml" to the end of my application.xml.override filename. (My own damn fault, didn't realize I hadn't disabled the damnable "hide extensions instead of deleting them" feature on this machine.)
FWIW, here's my full successful recipe (in my example I'm only installing IDCS3, btw):
# Create a folder called CS3 Install at the top level of your startup drive.
# Copy the entire "Applications" DVD into /CS3 Install/ -- it makes a folder called Adobe CS3 Design Premium with your installer goodies.
# Create a file in called /CS3 Install/install-idcs3-only.xml duplicated from the template in /CS3\ Install/Adobe\ CS3\ Design\ Premium/deployment/install.xml . Customize as necessary for your particular needs--since I only want IDCS3, I deleted everything except the Creative Suite and InDesign payloads from the list of installables in here.
# Create /CS3 Install/Adobe CS3 Design Premium/payloads/AdobeDesignSuitePremiumen_US_Volume/application.xml.override from the supplied template in the KB, normalizing all double-quotes, and inserting your serial number with no dashes.
# Make sure ALL web browsers and IM clients have been quit.
Finally, in Terminal, run:
sudo /CS3\ Install/Adobe\ CS3\ Design\ Premium/Setup.app/Contents/MacOS/Setup --mode=silent --deploymentFile="/CS3 Install/install-idcs3-only.xml"
which should exit with Error code 0 (ie, Successful install).

Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 has shopped working

In the past two days I have been getting the following error
message when I try to make changes to an open page in Dreamweaver
CS3:
"Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 has stopped working"
"A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is
available".
I am running Windows Vista Ultimate. I have not installed any
new programs recently, so I'm thinking that either a recent Windows
Update or and Adobe Update may be causing this new problem. Is this
a known issue? Does anyone know of a solution to this
problem?

Dreamweaver CS3 Trial install error

My DreamWeaver CS3 Trial install crashes right after the
component load. screen. and I do have the new Adobe Reader. I also
have Photoshop. so what might be the problem. I will try to make a
video of it and upload it on youtube.
But anyways my system specs are
RAM = 512MB ;
Processor = AMD Athlon 2600 , MMX , 3DNOW , ~2.1GHz ;
Op system = Win XP Pro(using IIS)
so what should be wrong with this?

Sounds as though you're trying to install Dreamweaver CS3 on
Mac OS X
10.3 or earlier. CS3 requires OS X 10.4 as a minimum. It
won't install
on earlier versions.

You would have to find some third party vendor and take your chances there. Adobe does not sell older versions of their software.

Missing File - Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 with ASP, Coldfusion, and PHP

On page 263 of Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 with ASP, Coldfusion,
and PHP by:Jeffrey Bardzel and Bob Flynn the file called
countryDetailXML.asp is missing. How can I find that file? Any
idea?
Thanks for your help.

@citaiz,
That file is created earlier in the lesson in an exercise
starting on page 257. For the sake of the lesson, you can use
countryDetail.xml that is included in the lesson 09 start folder.
It is not important for this lesson that the XML is a static file
or one generated in real time from the database. The version of
Spry (1.4) that shipped with DW CS3 used XML data only. The current
version (1.6.1) can use JSON and HTML tables for the data source as
well. You can get the latest version of Spry for free at
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/,
including an extension to update your copy of DW to the latest
version.

Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 with ASP coldfusion and PHP search?

I am working through Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 with ASP
coldfusion and PHP with the intent of creating a data base site
that primarily requires a search engine on the index page. The
search page in the book uses specific search criteria ensuring that
there will always be a match to the data base but I need to create
an input text field search engine. My Q, if there is no data within
the data base that match the variable, will it return with an error
requiring an argument in the code to respond to no matching data.
Hopefully there are comprehensive online recourses for these search
engines as they are so common. I am a complete newby to all aspects
of web development and code so it will need to be a thorough
explanation, an idiots guide. ANY HELP GREATLY APPRECIATED

Rob,
Let me try to answer your questions, understanding that my
answers are laced with my experience and therefore my bias.
1. For the most part the SQL that you write for Access, MS
SQL or MySQL is going to be the same. I won't make that claim about
Oracle or PostgreSQL because I have limited or no experience in
those areas. To be sure when you head down the road with any DBMS
there are finer points on 'value added' features (to over simplify
things like MS SQL's Transact SQL), but for the most part when you
are pulling out, inserting or deleting records the SQL that you
write will be the same. In fact, I don't think I had to make any of
the SQL in the book different to deal with the back end db.
2. As for your host steering you away from MySQL, I don't
know why that would be. It is MUCH more stable and robust than
Access for web development. My research showed that you can use
MySQL just fine with ASP though that clearly wouldn't be
Microsoft's first choice.
3. A quick aside, the fact that you are building ASP on a Mac
would seem to indicate that you are developing on your production
server. That's never a good idea. Go local if you can. If you have
a newer Intel Mac you can use VM Fusion, Parallels or even Boot
Camp to run Windows in a virtual environment and develop there,
only moving your code to production when you are happy with it.
There is of course the fact that they two environments would not be
identical and you may need to change a few references, but it is
still a better practice than developing on your live site. Some web
hosts give you the ability to set up a subdomain. If yours does,
you could set one up with a duplicate of your site and develop
there.
4. Let me try to pull your 'rant-let' apart into two issue. I
begin with a question. I'm not sure what the Mac part has to do
with it. The primary language I work in at my day job is
ColdFusion. The majority of the most serious developers I know in
the CF world work on Macs. I am forced into the PC world because of
a cultural bias at the business school where I work. Having said
that, the only time I have felt there was ANY difference in the
tools, resources, choices I had was in any way affected by platform
was when Adobe still had not released Flex Builder 2 for the Mac.
Now that is behind us as well. This reaction of mine may be based
on the fact that Access never comes into play in the work that I
do. I regularly work with MS SQL and MySQL. (OK, so SQL Enterprise
Manager, the MS tool of choice to talk to MS SQL is Windows only,
but I only use that at the day job. But even there you can find
cross-platform, free tools like Aqua Data Studio to talk from a Mac
to MS SQL.) If I'm missing your point on the Mac, please let me
know. Since the advent of the Intel Mac I think it is hands-down
the best choice for a web developer. You can have Mac, Windows and
Unix all on one machine. It doesn't get any better (providing you
have the RAM :-)).
As for the security question, it is somewhat analogous to the
war on viruses and spyware. As the defenses get better, so do the
attacks. Most languages have developed functions for vetting user
input variables and best practices for building these things. It is
mainly a user education issue. When I took over the book you are
working out of, the one thing Jeffrey told me it needed was more
security. I did my best to put more in under the constraints of the
publisher. They didn't want the book to be any longer than the
previous version. I did my best to modify the code used to include
"string safe" functions and to add verbiage about the importance of
security. It was clear that I could not add as much as was needed
and I said so in the book. Much more is needed for a serious
treatment of the subject and not acknowledging that would have been
a disservice to the readers. I've been working as a developer for
over a decade and I don't know all there is to know about it. It's
a constantly changing field, just like all of web development. In
fact next week I'm going through a 2-day SANS Web Application
Security workshop in hopes of learning more. So at the risk of
sounding like an industry apologist, I don't think it's a
shortcoming of the development community. It is, as they say, "a
developing situation".
HTH,
Bob

I couldn't find the link for downloading or buying Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 for both Windows and Mac

Hi,
I have been looking for Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 but I could not find in any website. Could anyone provide with the downloading link.
Thanks

OK, so forget about CS3. Without a valid serial number, you cannot activate the trial version and Adobe no longer sells CS3.
Any reason you're specifically trying to obtain CS3?
You can purchase CS6 for a one time fee
Creative Suite 6
Or join the Adobe Cloud.

Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 - Help - Test Server

Hey,
I work for my University on a "Numeracy Inititative", we use Flash Modules develped by Adobe Flash 8, and host them on a website that was developed by Dreamweaver (not sure which version).
The website is located here: http://www.uoguelph.ca/numeracy/
I've been tasked to kind of change the format of the site...make it more "user friendly". And I'm using Adobe Dreamweaver CS3...and I've been spending the day looking at tutorials and what not, but I want to put the website up onto a test server, I try doing the "preview in browser" but when I do I get a "Unable to connect".
Is there something else I can do...another method?
Thanks in advance,
Steve

You didn't answer Murray's question.
The method you're using can work, but it can get out of control pretty fast if you have a lot of files to test. Some folks just create a separate folder for testing that way.
I would set up a local test server for this purpose. If that is not an option for you, you might be able to create a subdomain on your live server, say http://test.example.com . You can even create a simple http authentication for the subdomain so that bots and search engines don't find it.

Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 "PUT" Button

Hi,
I just created a basic home page using adobe dreamweaver cs3,
and have already created an ftp link with my website server. But
how come the "put" button was in gray, and I can't click it?
Thanks,
Jimster

Steve is right on target here. Do not use FTP & RDS when
you create a site
definition without checking with either of us first.

Dream weaver8/Adobe dreamweaver CS3

Now this will show just how new I am to
dreamweaver/computer knowledge etc.
I recently did a course on dreamweaver8, purchased an update
of softwear I already had thinking it contained dreamweaver8? I
purchased Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium. now when I open
dreamweaver it says "Dw Adobe Dreamweaver CS3" ????
Is this a later version? Older Version? I also purchased the
book "Dreamweaver 8 for Dummies" (I know I know fitting ) to make
it easier to know how to create a site/define etc, but some of the
things like a box Refresh local file list automatically, is not
available when I go to define a site.
Appreciate any info that will stop my confusion about if they
are same product etc.
