Error creating the air file

Hello,
this is my first time Air Trial:
Using a simple Webpage (including Text, one jpeg and one gif-file, I tried to creat an air file, using the air extension in dreamweaver CS4.
Following the instruction I made up the air application & installer setting, created my Cert-File and so on.
Preview looks perfect.
But when I try to create the Air file I get this:
unexpected failure: null
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.adobe.ucf.UCF.addFileOrDir(UCF.java:358)
at com.adobe.ucf.UCF.parseOptionalFileList(UCF.java:284)

at com.adobe.air.ADT.main(ADT.java:38)
What to do?

Hello,
I feel stuck. I tried everything, incl. various Lessons but still get this error.
Could it be that I am using Air 1.5.2 but the older extension for dreamweaver 1.5.8.?
If this is the cause, when will the extension be updated??
I also read about possible certification problems. How can I check that?
DW Air Extension doesn't support it.

Clients cannot see the changes once they install the air file

Dear All,
First of all i`m a newbe for adobe air so please bare with me for any stupid question.
Im using adobe Dreamweaver CS3 for my developments. I have successfully installed all the nessasary extensions. As a start up i have created a normal html page with content scrolling effect using jquery. Then I created the xml file as below. (this was a sample xml file i was downloaded from the net)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.0">
   <id>test.first</id>
   <filename>test</filename>
   <version>1.0</version>
   <name>testing</name>
   <description>My first AIR application</description>
   <initialWindow>
       <content>index.html</content>
       <visible>true</visible>
       <width>2000</width>
   </initialWindow>
</application>
Finally I created the .air file and installed it in my machine. Above all worked fine
But the problem was when ever i do changes to the original index.html file it didnt show up in my installed version. so my questions for you guys are,
1. How can i push my new changes to the already installed version?
2. If I add new files to my project how can i show them on already installed version?
Thanks a lot in advanced,
Best regards,
Niroshan fernandez

To install new assets or code to your application, you must compile and deploy a new version of the application (a new versioin of the AIR file), and the user must install the updated version.
Adobe provides an application update framework that makes it easy to deploy new versions of an AIR application. Here's an article on using that framework in an HTML-based AIR application:

"Sorry, an error has occured. The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged

Hello-
I have an air application that is distributed via CDROM, the app is signed by a code signing certificate and timestamped. In mid-August when my certicate expired my users started calling stating that they couldn't install our product due to the following error: "Sorry, an error has occured. The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged. Try obtaining a new AIR file from the application author." From my understanding a timestamped application is taken at a point in time when it's generated so why would it matter if the certificate was still valid? I have since replaced the certificate and will need to redistribute to my (thousands of) users however when I test it out using a future date and time the same error occurs. Any information to help resolve this would be grately appreciated.

my command:
C:\Users\HOME USE\Desktop\AIR Development\HelloWorld>adl
application.xml
C:\Users\HOME USE\Desktop\AIR Development\HelloWorld>adt
-certificate -cn HelloW
orld 1024-RSA certHelloWorld.pfx password

Error: Outlook could not create the work file. Office 2013

I was having issues with Windows 8.1 store apps not working and it was suggested to sync my account licenses. I did that but it did not correct my problem. I then ran the troubleshooter app. The troubleshooter found several issues that it
fixed but I cannot remember what they were.
So here's my problem. Now, when I open Outlook (2013) I get the error "Outlook could not create the work file."
Any suggestions?

Glad to hear that you have found a solution and thank you for sharing it here, it will be helpful to other community members who have same questions.

41810-error creating the menu,cannot read the file

While creating the menu i am getting the following error
"41810-error creating the menu,cannot read the file".PLease help to rectify this error.

It is probably attached to the Forms module (see the library node in the navigator window).
In a general way, try to know where are youe design modules (*.pll, *.mmb, *.fmb), look at the FORMS_PATH variable to see what directories are part of this environment variable, compile every design time module to get the executable versions *.plx, *.mmx and *.fmx, then put these executable files in one of the directories pointed by the FORMS_PATH variable.

Error 112: The AIR target doesn't support native extensions

I have been developing an AIR app in Flash Builder. I recently created an ANE (Air Native Extension) for FMOD and linked it with my AIR app. ADT user-unfriendliness aside, I got it working.
When I try to update my Ant build script to package the ANE files with my AIR project, ADT complains:
My-App-Descriptor-Name.xml: error 112: The AIR target doesn't support native extensions.
This comes as a surprise to me, because I've been compiling and developing the AIR app in Flash Builder with the ANE extensions. It also doesn't make sense, because I packaged my ANE with platform specific libraries for multiple platforms (Windows and MacOs), so when the AIR app runs on these platforms, it should work. However, this aside, my main point is:
How the heck does this work in Flash Builder if AIR targets do not support ANE? What is Flash Builder doing, exactly, when I Run or Debug an AIR app with ANEs?
Thanks!

Hi Ajith !!
Please refer this link :
http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/reporting/rep_spooltopdf.htm
Here a spool output is converted into PDF and then sent as an email.
I think instead of using FM to change the width, try the logic mentioned in the link.
Also instead of FM CONVERT_TO_OTF use :
1. CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF
I hope this should solve the problem.
I had referred the same program from the link and it worked absolutely fine. Also check the adobe acrobat version, i guess old version doesnt support SAP, though not very sure.

How to create the SWF file which was included surrogate pairs.

I would like to make sure how to create the SWF file which are included surrogate pairs.
The error of outside the scope of unicode occurred when I compiled(mxmlc) the as file which was set surrogate pairs to 'Unicoderange'.
Ex, I set the ' '(UTF-16 is '20B9F') to 'Unicoderange'.
However, I cannot add the surrogate pairs.
The error of outside the scope of Unicode occurred when I compiled the AS file.
The reason of error was that the Unicode(UTF-16) of surrogate pairs is invalid.
Then, I read the following pages.
These pages are written that unicode-range supported surrogate pairs.

So please let me know how to create the SWF file which are included surrogate pairs.

I've been able to create project jar files in Eclipse by selecting Export from the File menu, then choose Java - Jar file - and provide the required information, name, destination folder etc. But when I do this, I do not export other jars on the build path this way nor do I expect to do this. I am only concerned with creating a jar file of my own work. A jar file does not "contain" other jar files. If the jar file contains the main method, and requires other jars for it's execution, then you may wish to include a reference to required jars on the class path entry of the Manifest file of the jar file you create. I'm not sure how to create a Manifest file in eclipse though..

Air 1.51 installation failure. The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged

The error:
The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged. Try obtaining a new AIR file from the application author.
is generated when an AIR installation file is lauched from a Samba Network Drive in Vista Utlimate 64. If the install files are copied to a local drive, it installs without incident.

Working with networks drives are never reliable. Corruption, path problems, networks connections, and privlatges can come in the way of a properly mapped drive. I think your solution is fairly straight forward. You need to install your application from a local filesystem, not a mapped network drive. In the meantime, log a bug report HERE.

#2032 Stream Error when downloading .air file for update

Hi guys,
I have made a very simple self update air application. When
the .air file to download for updating is on a localhost server
everything works fine, however when the .air file is on a remote
server I got a #2032 stream error when trying to download the .air
file. (I tried to download the file using IE or Firefox and I get a
404 error ; btw I am absolutely sure of the .air file URL )
Does this happen because the .air file has been generated
with my trial version of Adobe Air ?
Thanks for your help.
Olivier

Thank you for your answer Oliver.
I'm absolutely sure of the URL. I set the permissions on the
remote web server to browse the directory with my explorer, I can
see the .air file but when I click on that file I get that 404
error. (I hit the refresh button of my browser to be sure to have
the correct files list). Btw something interesting to notice is
that when I rename the .air file to .zip I can download the file.
I have tried with another remote server and it works. There
may be some misconfiguration somewhere with the first server I
tried.

Thanks,
Santosh

Hi Santosh,
I am sure you would done it correctly. However, just to be on the safer side, lets revisit all the steps.
From BPC excel, we create a new conversion. Check the name of the worksheet (not the workbook). By default, it will be Conversion. You can change it to something else also. Lets say, we change it to Account. So, the sheet's name is Account. We validate and save the conversion as myconversion.xls. This will create another file named myconversion.cdm. Check the location properly while saving the conversion file. The location would be
HTTP://server_name/appset/application/DataManager/ConversionFiles.
Save it under company folder.
Go to the server, where BPC has been installed. Go to the folder
\Webfolders\appset\application\DataManager\ConversionFiles
Check whether the conversion file is present or not. We should have both "myconversion.xls" and "myconversion.cdm".
Create a new transformation file. Under the *CONVERSION section, We define the conversion file to be used. The format would be
Dimension_Name=conversion_file_name.xls!sheet name
In our example, it would be myconversion.xls!account. (check the use of the conversion file name and the sheet name).
Save and validate the transformation file. Mostly, the issue is around the conversion file name and the sheet name. Check all the steps.
Hope this helps.
