DW CS4 Site Manager Buggy?

Hi:
I am having trouble in my local testing environment. It all works perfectly on the Remote.
When intentionally seeking a validation error, the formmail page is not returning properly.
It should be:
http://localhost/srbartending/srbregistermail.php
But it is coming up:
http://localhost/srbregistermail.php
The testing server shows:
C:\xampp\htdocs\srbartending\ and
http://localhost/srbartending/
The error message states "not found", but I know it is there as I can connect to the URL by typing it in.
Is there a bug of some kind? I have DW CS 4 in Windows 7 -- CS4 was added after Windows 7. I also noticed that in the site manager, when browsing for files, they are not appearing correctly in the text box after selecting.
Appreciate any help!
Rgds, Ned

Hi
The first problem is probably to do with your site definition or a linking error.
As for the second problem with the site manager this is a know problem, and you must 'browse' to one folder below the required one, the problem is caused by an update to the windows os that was released after cs4, (sorry, but I do not know why adobe did not release an update to fix this problem).

Dreamweaver cs4, site management does not recognize image directory

I have recently downloaded trial version. When I was trying to set up local site with site management tool, it somehow keep failing to recognize the image folder within. So I go to advance setting of edit and assign local root folder C:\favdoo\MyTheme\
then I try to assign Default image folder which IS in the MyTheme folder, it dow not show up in the browser and even if I manually type in, gives me error message "there are not image file". I have checked rebooted, clear cache, but still does not recognize image folder. ????? Can anyone please help? It drives me crazy before I even start using dreamweaver.

got it, needed to create images directory to associate with actual file......how I supposed to know that?

Site Management: Crash / DW CS4

Hello,
It's been 2 days that I can't use DW because it says me that the root files for my websites don't exist. When I try to correct it in site management, and when I try to create a new site in site management, DW gives this message of error (I translate it from french) " : this character isn't availaible for this access".
It's then impossible to use DW; since it doesn't recongnize the files I choose.
What should I do ?
I followed the tip and deleted the ".dat" file in my library -> language. Also deleted the whole preference file in language. Once I managed to create a new site, and the minute after, it bugged again.
Thanks a lot for your help !

PS: I'm on MacBookPro Intel, Mac OSX 10.6.8 using Dreamweaver CS4

I found this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/494812
Delete the .dat files in there and Manage Sites will open.

Site Manager Tabs Can't be Selected

I've been having the same trouble with the 'root folder' issue as reported by many others, however, I go one further. Once I resolve the root folder problem, I can't click on any of the site setup tabs (under Site; Site Manager) in CS 5 Dreamweaver. When I get the Site Name and Local Site Folder correctly identified, NONE of the tabs on the left (Site, Servers, Version Control, Advanced Settings) can be chosen. After trying to select one, the only way to get out of this screen is to use the ESC key. Now, this is a problem, because all the website information, such as usernames, passwords, testing sites, and all the other site manager details, cannot be changed. It appears the only fix I can find is to export Site Manager info to a thumbdrive, take it to my other computer (CS4 Dreamweaver) and make the changes---even including setting up new websites), the export it back to the thumbdrive and import to my other computer. I believe it would be easier to start using Expression Web!
I'm using Windows 7.

That worked! But it sounds so unrelated. Who would think that the size of fonts would make a difference? Sounds like a 'quirk' between Adobe and Microsoft. I've found a few of them and had to make 'sticky' notes on work-arounds.
Thanks for your suggestion. How did you figure this out?

How retieve ste data records(I did not export) in Site manager

corrupted my vista (files exist not lost) how retieve ste data records(I did not export) in Site manager for use in a new installation... was dw cs4 now dw cs6...

Unless you previously exported all your site definition setting and saved them to a safe place (i.e. an external drive, local or remote site folder), you must manually recreate them in CS6 via Site > Manage Sites > New...

How do I migrate CS4 sites to CC?

I have old sites managed with Dw CS4 which do not have .ste files. How do I import them as sites?

If you no longer have CS4 and you don't have .ste files, you don't import.
You'll need to create your site definitions manually.

Open DW cs4 site into DW 5.5?

How do I bring an entire site into DW 5.5? When I simply open the index file, it does not bring in my "Manage sites" info (server, testing with login, etc).
I have tried exporting my cs4 site and opening it in cs5.5 to no avail.
Thank you,
Matt G

Mac OS X, 10.6.7.
In Manage Sites dialog box, I exported the site in CS4. It creates a .ste file.
When I open that in CS5.5, I can open the index.cfm file but non of my server/ftp info comes in.
I just want to use DW 5.5 for all of my projects that were created in DW4 without having to set up the sites all over again.
Thanks
Matt

How do I create a non-apple ID account for a new adminstrator for a Podcast Site Manager

http://myinfo.apple.com is inoperable. I need to create a new account for an Administrator for our Podcast Site Manager account. We have one that no one can access. Can someone assist or point me in the direction of someone at APPLE that can? I called their helpdesk and THEY couldn't even help.
Concerned...

I'm afraid I don't know anything about this: it doesn't appear to be relevant to ordinary podcasts. Is this an iTunes-U matter? - perhaps that forum would help.

I can't find the Secure Zone in my Site-Manager.

I'm a creative cloud member and I can't find the Secure Zone in my Site-Manager. There are only Web-Formulars and System-E-Mails. What do I have to do?

Hi there, the creative cloud site you get is only a web basic plan. You do not have those features, you will need to upgrade if you want them.

Business Catalyst Site Manager Only Showing Web Forms

I am having a horrible time trying to just apply and setup a template in business catalyst. I have gotten to the point where you add the HTML {tag_pagecontent} into a page in muse. Now I went to my admin panel and went to the site manager drop down. All it shows is web forms and system emails! Isn't there supposed to be buttons for templates etc?! I hope someone has the answers, btw I am using a trial site currently but that shouldn't make a difference right? Thanks in advance.

I figured it out, I had to click on my name in the right corner within the BC admin. Then click on my details and scroll down and check box the "enable web editing" and save. That made all site manager options available.

DW8 Site Manager Window

1. The dropdown menu for sitenames in the SHOW SITE list
selector no longer responds to typing in the first letter of the
site and the list zips to that alphabetical point in the list.
Previous versions did this, as is window standard for dropdown
menus.
2. WHen minimizing the DW main window, using the
click-on-taskbar DW icon, the Site manager window is left showing.
If the Minimize _ top left window standard button (near the X close
button) is used, it minimizes both windows.
3. Often it seems impossible to get the Local Side of the
Site manager window to Refresh to be the current files listed in
the directory, if, for instance, image files were added outside of
DW. REFRESH, F5, etc. do nothing. Relaunching DW then shows the
correct up-to-date directory listing.
4. After how many revisions of DW since DW2(when there was
discussion and "promises" to fulfill these features), there still
seems not to be a feature to provide information (e.g., right click
context menu a filename in the local directory to have this option)
for what files use/point to a particular file or asset. Since DW
already keeps a cross-reference cache of the dependencies, it seems
this is an easy informational list to display. It's very useful in
a number of situations, especially as a precursor to moving a file,
to see if anyone (or who) is dependent on this file. Too, DW is not
always thorough in updating all links and references to assets and
linked files (for instance, (a) there's a difference in behavoir if
you drag a file to another folder vs. cut/paste a file to another
folder; (b) html option dropdown lists sometimes are not updated,
(c) standard (e.g., imageready-generated) rollover menu image
references are never updated, especially in templates (what a pain
that is to manage).
5. Similarly there is no feature in a right-click context
menu (or otherwise) to fabricate/generate an absolute URL (from the
published web site perspective) for a given html file or image
asset. This has to be done manually(typing it in or navigating in a
browser and then copying the URL), but it could so easily be
generated and put in the paste buffer or other usable place.

wait, are
you on a Mac? I've never been able to figure out why some
apps seem
to leave bits and pieces behind when minimizing on a Mac. Or
closing,
for that matter.

<shrug> Personally I don't see the need for it, but you
can always
tell Adobe (telling us here in the user-to-user forum doesn't
really
do you a whole lot of good, you know?).
When I want to find out what links to a file, I do a global
search for
the filename. But since I'm rather anal about site
architecture, file
naming conventions, and keeping good records, I've only ever
had to do
this when I'm working in a site someone else developed.

Never tried this, to be honest. Since dragging works, why cut
and
paste?
In my opinion DW is acting responsibly. If you have cut a
file from
the list of files, it warns you about existing links to that
file. If
you proceed with the deletion, it's deleted. Including from
the file
list. If you then paste the file somewhere else, how is DW
supposed
to know that you didn't really mean to delete it, you meant
to move
it?
> (b) html option dropdown lists sometimes

I have no idea what you mean here.
>(c) standard (e.g., imageready-generated) rollover menu

That's because those are NOT "standard" menus. The links are
buried
in JavaScript. If they were standard menus with standard
links, DW
could manage them just fine.
Do a search in this forum for posts about the Fireworks
menus; the
ImageReady ones are no different.

Guess since I have never seen the need to use absolute URLs
within a
site, I haven't run into this.
How is DW to know what the absolute URL path is supposed to
be? And
if you want site root relative links, why not just use site
root
relative links?

ITunes U Site Manager log in error

Hello,
Some contributors to Public iTunes U courses/collections in our institution cannot sign in to the iTunes U Site Manager for the last couple of days:
https://sitemanager.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/DZStudio.woa/wa/SignIn
They get this message: "We're sorry, iTunes Site Manager encountered an error"
We all use iMac or Macbook Pros.
As an iTunes U admin, however, I can log in without any problems.
Has anyone else encountered this problem. Does anyone know what is going on here?
I plan to send iTunes U Support an email about this issue as well.
Thanks.

You are welcome, WonderProfessor.
Updating iTunes may not be the reason at all. It could very well be the Support Team has fixed the problem, which i think is the case.
Also, I learned i should report EACH problem to iTunes U Support Team using its Report Form:
https://ssl.apple.com/support/itunes-u/public-site-manager/contact.html
I used the Report Form a couple of months ago to report a different problem. One tech support person responsded and I have been emailing to that individual via email about a few more issues since then. This, however, is NOT a good practice. Reporting each problem using the report form will help the iTunes Support Team to prioritize the work based on urgency.
Anyway, I am releaved it is working now. Thank you. And thanks to the iTunes U Support Team and iTunes U Editors.

Site Manager Update Issue Continues

Duncan;
It appears that the iTunes U Desktop Application update issue has not been resolved. I added new content to a collection (see attached link) on Friday. As of this morning, the tracks have not appeared in the iTunes U Desktop application (ver. 10.0.1), although they do appear in the Quick View Preview, but cannot be previewed in that window.
The tracks have been available for preview and download all weekend on the iPad and iPhone.

Greetings All;
Just checking to see what, if anything has happened with the Public Site Manager Update issue on your campus or in your office.
I've uploaded content that still hasn't shown up in the iTunes Desktop Application in over two weeks.
Oddly enough, I have added URL's to our site, and that information shows up within an hour of Publishing the site.
Just wondering if anyone has experienced a resolution of the issue.

Two Separate Problems - 1) Some website elements missing in Internet Explorer and 2) Site manager page Locks up

1) I have two forms created in FormsCentral embedded on my website www.videoaldeco.com . They do not appear in Internet Explorer. They work in Firefox and Safari on my iPhone. However, the problem only occurs on this computer. I tried another PC and the forms appear fine in Internet Explorer.
2) When I go into Site Admin Console page from Muse, Internet Explorer locks up almost every time. Only Windows Task Mngr can shut it down. Then it wants to recover page. Recovering page only locks up again.

Hi
Answering the questions :
1) I am not able to replicate as it works on my end , form loads fine on IE. Please let me know the IE version you are using.
2) I don't see the same issue with site manager , please check the browser plugins and try to disable all and then check.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Hi,
i am not too sure if this will help you, but here is my guess.
Before creating a database in BPA, you gotta execute a procedure (schema_aris_70.new_schema()) in the backend database, please check if you have done this.
check out admininstration guide for more details.
