Error putting files: they go blank

I cannot figure out why my files go empty (meaning go 0 KB)
when I put a file (or more files at the same time) from local to
remote site. It seems to happen randomly with .html, .css or other
files. It also happens when I get the file. I thought it had
something to do with cloaking but enabling or disabling that option
doesn't always make it right: sometimes it helps, sometimes it
doesn't. Does anyone know what could be going on here? I used
Macromedia Dreamweaver in the past and never encountered this
issue.

This usually means that you have exceeded the storage
capacity of your
remote site. The filename is added to the file list, but
since you have
exceeded capacity, the contents of the file are not saved.

Hope this helps someone.

Dreamweaver CS3 Blank Page After Putting File To Server

After putting a shtml file to the server it is blank on the server side. I've tested it from another PC with Dreamweaver same version & setup and it works fine so I assume it's not the server. The file is correct on the local site side but server side is blank yet file size is the same. If I did a sync and had it do the dependant files it seemed to work once then wouldn't work again. If I FTP to the server and drop the file all is fine. I deleted the local user profile and created it and it worked once. I uninstalled Dreamweaver and re-installed it and get the same problem. I exported the site then imported it to a different computer and all is fine on that computer. Not sure what to do

<<
Sounds like a strange problem, but take it a step at a time to sort it out. -- Thanks!
First, SSIs only work when the file is viewed with the browser. In the process of getting the file for the user, the server (if it is set up to handle SSIs) will then insert the contents of the included file before it ships the whole thing off to the user's browser. -- Not sure why you're mentioning SSI's
Viewing files on the remote - I assume with FTP and a text editor? - proves nothing. -- I think you're wrong, Viewing a file after the transfer and comparing the local version and the server version does prove there is an issue if they are not exactly the same since they should be
What browser/version are you using? Have you tried other browsers? -- Browser/version is irrelivant since the file on the server side is truely BLANK after you click PUT in dreamweaver and it suposidly "sends" the file

Sorry if I'm not explaining it well.. Let me try again..
Websites all setup and working. index.shtml happens to be setup as the main index file and was working perfectly (had been for a few years)
After a computer was imaged over the summer with a default image, CS3 was installed again. The Site was setup and the user connected to the site, then modified the index.shtml file. After saving the file they clicked PUT and sent it to the server. It seemed to flash quick and not truely send it like it use to. Use to take a second or two not a close to instant flash. After this happens the page is blank. Here's what I did to dig into and see what I could find.
Exported the Site , Imported to another computer that had the same image and had CS3 installed (same as the one having a problem)
Modified the index file and saved then put it. Worked no problems. Ran that test a few times. No problem.
Back to the problem computer. Made a change saved/put the file , blank again. Used Filezilla. Downloaded the recently put file to my desktop and opened it. Completely Blank. (I opened with a txt view and even opened with Dreamweaver) I checked the index file on the problem computer in the local folder it is in. Everything is there and perfect.

An FTP error occurred - cannot put [file name.htm]. Dreamweaver encountered an internal data error

I get the message “Server not responding” whenever trying to add files to my web site via DW. The following message appears: "An FTP error occurred - cannot put [file name.htm]. Dreamweaver encountered an internal data error. Please try the operation again."
I called the hosting service provider, and they said they were able to upload a 20 mb document with no problem. I was also able to upload a document using Filezilla.
Therefore, the problem must be with DW.
When I go to Manage Sites and choose my site and get to the Test Connection button, the test is successful, which further confuses the issue.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Why are you using File.endSeparator '0'. ?
Are you sure your input data doesn't have those 3 blank records in the end? Check the message payload in the sxmb_moni transaction.

REP-1425 report formula DO_SQL error putting value into column

Hi all
I have opened a report 2.5 in Oracle9i Reports Developer and, it converted ok. However, when I run the report (paper layout), the message
rep-1425 report formula DO_SQL error putting value
into column. Column may not be referenced by parameter
triggers
appears. There are several report level formula columns and corresponding placeholder columns that are the cause of this error. The formula has the following :
SRW.DO_SQL('SELECT RPAD(''DAILY TABLE AUDIT REPORT'',60,''.'')||TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,''DD-MON-YYYY'') INTO :REPORT_TIT FROM DUAL');
COMMIT;
RETURN('');
I can't work out what this error message really means as the column, report_tit is a placeholder column and, the formula column is not a parameter trigger!! The report_tit placeholder is used as a source for a layout field. I noticed that the layout field is defined as a placeholder column in the converted report but in the reports 2.5 version, it is defined as a layout field.
I can do a work around by replacing the SRW.DO_SQL statement with a normal PL/SQL SELECT statement. However, I wonder if anyone else has had the same problem and, if anyone can help provide an answer as to what this error really means and, also, how I can retain the SRW.DO_SQL statement and/or an alternative work around to the one that I have described.
Thanks.

Hi again
The firewall proved to be the problem after all! The firewall set in Reports config-files is not used for WebServices, it has to be set within the stub:
Properties prop = System.getProperties();
prop.put("http.proxyHost","yourProxyServer");
prop.put("http.proxyPort","youProxyServerPort");
I inserted this in my java-code and after some problems (see below), restarting Report Builder turned the trick, the report works now.
Cheers
Tino
Here there mail I set up before I found that restarting Report Builder helped:
Thanks for your answer, putting in the proxy-settings actually helped some - the same error message is
popping up, but instantly and not after 10 seconds like before:
My proxy lines look like this, I also tried "http://proxy.ch.oracle.com", but "proxy.ch.oracle.com" proved to
be the correct syntax:
public Float getRate(String country1, String country2) throws Exception
Float returnVal = null;
Properties prop = System.getProperties();
prop.put("http.proxyHost","proxy.ch.oracle.com");
prop.put("http.proxyPort","8080");
URL endpointURL = new URL(endpoint);
Call call = new Call();
I tested the new proxy-entries by disabling the proxy preference in JDeveloper, so I could verify the added
proxy-lines in the code work - they do. If I change the proxy to some incorrect value like
"proxyy.ch.oracle.com", they fail.
After unsuccessfully trying recompile and re-import of Java classes, I rebuild the report from scratch and
stumbled over the same problem. Now the question is, whether I'm still doing something wrong with the
proxy or whether there is another problem after passing the firewall....

Runtime Error in File Preview of RH7 - Immediate help needed!

Dear all,
we're working on a RoboHelp 7 project under version control.
Today we encountered a major issue with ur project/database. When opening files in the preview window, they are displayed without error. As soon you click on a link within this file that leads to another HTML file, you get a pop-up with a runtime error message. You're asked either to debug or not. Selecting no displays a second runtime error with the same question. After also declining, you get to the selected HTML file.
We have two major sorts of files: Chapter overview pages and topic files. Both are based on the same Style Sheet (CSS) and template. For the overview files the layout is just changed a bit when you create the file. Further there are some extra files don't use the template.
Now I recognized some kind of logic:
- When you open an overview-file, the two pop-ups always refer to runtime errors in line 46 and 49.
- When you open a topic file, the two pop-ups always refer to runtime errors in line 50 and 53.
- When you open a file that is blank and not based on the template, there's no error.
Until now, the error never occured. But since today (or maybe last week und we didn't recognize), this error comes up even for files that were created months ago and never had an error before. They were changed today automatically when a renamed a chapter. Even within our "clean and working" backups we now encounter this error.
Questions:
- Can anyone explain, what a runtime error is at all?
- My assumption is, that it has something to do with the CSS or template, but I'm not sure. What can be wrong there?
- To what lines do the specifications in the pop-up refer to? Where can I find those lines?
As we are in a very critical project phase, I really need your assistance for a quick and effective solution. Please help me as soon as possible!! Thanks!!

Hi Tom
Here is my own educated guess.
When you have links of any type in a HTML document, a calculation has to occur at the time they are created. The application has to calculate where the linked item is in relation to the existing page. Then HTML shorthand is created to navigate. Up a folder level is ../ and up two folder levels is ../../. Stuff like that.
Popups are a different story. While you are still creating links, these beasties are actually handled using JavaScript. So the path is supplied in the call to the JavaScript.
As if that weren't complex enough, we now toss Headers and Footers into the mix. Headers and Footers are tied to the Master Page. The Master Page is always in the root level of the project. Links in a Header and Footers often break because of the assorted locations of HTML pages if you are using folders to organize your project. So when you create the link initially as part of the Master Page, things are dandy and as long as the topic is in the project root folder (same as the Master Page) things would likely work fine. But if that Master Page is associated with a topic inside a folder level or two down, things can go to pot in a hurry! (Where are we all headed? And what's with the handbasket?)
Hopefully this helps shed some possible explanation... Rick

Protected View Error "The file is corrupt and cannot be opened"

All
I have a problem with Protected View in Office 2010 on Windows 7.
Symptom: When downloading a file from the Internet, the file will not open if launched directly from the source location, or saved locally and then opened. This
is impacting both Word and Excel. I haven’t tested other applications. The user gets the error "The file is corrupt and cannot be opened.".
Expected behaviour: Documents should open in Protected View because they are coming from an untrusted zone (Internet Zone).
Troubleshooting Results:
-      If I turn off Protected View the error goes away and the documents open without
issue (but not in Protected View obviously)
-      If I save the file locally, then copy it to a network drive, the problem goes away (because the zone information is changed?).
-      If I save the file directly to a network location, then open it, the problem does not impact me (also doesn’t open in Protected View)
-      If I repair Office the problem is NOT fixed
-      If I reinstall Office the problem is NOT fixed
The problem doesn't impact all machines, but any new machine I build suffers the problem. All Protected View options are set by group policy and all machines are getting the correct settings.
-       The setting “Enable Protected View for files originating from the Internet” is enabled
-       The setting “Enable Protected View for files located in potentially unsafe locations” is enabled
-      The setting “Enable Protected View for Outlook attachments” is enabled
-      Enable Data Execution Prevention mode is enabled
Has anyone seen this problem or can anyone offer suggestions of where to start looking for the root cause? There are lots of postings on this around the various Internet forums, but most
just suggest turning off Protected View, that is not a valid solution to my mind, Protected View is there for a very sound reason and it is not something I'm willing to turn off, especially when it is working on some machines as expected.
Thanks.
James.

Thanks for coming back, James, and I'm glad you've found the source of your
problem.
As an aside, I had no idea HP made software like that and will take a look
at it - or would if I could. Personally, although I love their hardware, I
wouldn't touch HP software, and the fact that their web page doesn't load
(in IE8) just reinforces my feeling.
Enjoy,
Tony

"Put" files not showing up on website

I am hoping this is a relatively simple problem I am encountering. I have been given a site (http://urpl.wisc.edu/people/marcouiller/projects/clearinghouse/Tourism%20Resources.htm) to edit using Dreamweaver and many of the links that are listed are linked to nonexistent pages. I am trying to hyperlink these broken links to actual webpages and it was working fine for awhile. During the past couple of days however, after I "put" the changes to the server, the changes are not showing up on the website. The server displays that it was updated at that specific time and date and the preview page shows the correct links when I open it, but nothing changes on my actual site. I have tried clearing my cache and opening the page in different browsers, but still no luck. I have also tried disconnecting and then reconnecting to the host server and simply restarting Dreamweaver, but all to no avail. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem of changes not displaying on my website?
Much thanks!
-Ben

Are you using a Defined Site in DW or just editing individual pages and uploading?
Could you accidentally be loading the files to the wrong folder on the server?
Your site does have quite a few coding errors (64+ on the first page). You should go through the validator to clean those error up, though they likely don't have much to do with the problem at hand, it's still best for cross-browser performance and display to use correct html mark-up.

Suddenly can't put files to remote server

Hi there,
In Dreamweaver 5.5 (OS 10.7) I suddenly can't put files to the remote server. I've been using Dreamweaver for just over a year and this has never been a problem before. My site is: www.peawitpress.co.uk
The updated files go through the normal process of being "put" to the server (I don't get an error message or anything when synchronising), but when I check the live site the changes don't appear. I've tried refreshing the page and emptying the cache, but nothing seems to work. I've verified that I can connect to my web server and have verified the root directory and they are both fine.
The only thing that is unusual when synchronising is that (for the past day) the six files in the attached screenshot always want to synchronise (even though they haven't been updated). I deleted them from the site and added them again in case they somehow became corrupted, but they still randomly want to synchronise.
Any suggestions? It seems like there would be an easy solution for this, but I can't figure it out. Any help would be hugely appreciated!
Thanks and best wishes,
Alexandria

This has happened to me a few times in CS6. I think it's a memory thing.
Close DW. Reboot your computer. Open DW.
If you still cannot FTP to server, go to Site > Advanced > Recreate Site Cache.

Can't put files with FTP

I’m trying to transfer a site with Dreamweaver 8
(Windows) to CrystalTech. I can connect and transfer files okay
with WS_FTP. Hitting the “Test” button in
Dreamweaver’s site definition dialog returns a successful
test. But when uploading the site, the usual progress bar appears
and disappears rapidly, and no files are transferred. There is no
error message. The Dreamweaver FTP log is empty. This is the first
time I have tried to use Dreamweaver’s FTP to transfer a
site, although I have put files over the LAN before. Here is the
site definition remote info:
Access: FTP
FTP host: josephherl.org
Host directory: [blank]
Use passive FTP is checked [as instructed by
CrystalTech’s website]
Under “Server Compatibility,” “Use FTP
performance optimization” is checked, “Use alternative
FTP move method” is unchecked
Edit | Preferences | Site | Firewall port is set to 21
For what it’s worth, the testing server is set up on my
local machine and works fine. The machine is at my university.
I have tried:
using the IP address for the FTP host;
specifying a host directory [CrystalTech’s website
says to leave it blank];
unchecking “Use passive FTP”;
changing the settings under “Server
Compatibility”;
disabling Windows Firewall; and
double-checking that the local root folder is correct.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Flash limitations, Invisible Compiler Errors, swc files...

This question is for expert users of Flash CS4/CS5 and actionscript.   Please do not comment or offer suggestions if you have no experience with these errors or their causes.
===================================================
Question:
=======
Publishing an extremely complex file can sometimes result in a blank swf being created, and no compiler errors being shown even though some may exist.   Are there any suggested methods for dealing with this?
=======
Details:
=======
Those who have written flash files with large actionscript components will be familiar with needing to set the JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS evinronment variable in order to prevent the Flash compiler from crashing due to memory limits. The majority of the files in question require this as a bare minimum in order to be compiled at all.
The project in question involves several main "launcher" components, in addition to hundreds of "modules". The modules themselves are being developed in a distributed manner by several programmers. Each module can be executed as a standalone swf, for testing and production purposes. Each module has a companion swc file which holds its assets and exports them. All of the modules make use of a shared custom code library that sits on top of actionscript.
The launcher program also uses the shared library code, and runs the modules (never more than one at a time, and clearing previously loaded ones before loading a new one) inside of itself. The launcher contains a reference file(the class names typed in an include file, referencing all of the available exported assets from the swcs) that makes all the necessary assets available to the modules, such that any module can be run at any time.
===========
The Error:
===========
Seemingly random in occurence, every now and then a file will "compile blank". Essentially, the compile time is very short, the swf pops up as a blank white box, and there is absolutely nothing listed in the "Compiler Errors" tab, nor in the output tab. Sometimes closing flash and relaunching it will bring the Compiler Error messages back, though usually not. More often opening the file on another computer in a different copy of flash and compiling it again will show the errors.   The original computer will still not show anything, but the other computer can be used to fix the error, and then the file will start reporting errors again properly.
However, sometimes, the file will "compile blank" on all computers, and all copies of flash. Then the only resort to find the hidden errors and fix them, is to comment out the entire file, and slowly uncomment out sections one at a time. In this manner, the area where the hidden errors are occuring can be determined, and the error found manually.
Obviously this is an extremely frustrating situation, but one that can be "worked around".
However, there are two more serious incarnations of this which cannot be as easily side stepped.
1.) Sometimes certain computers/copies of flash will "compile blank" a file that doesnt actually have errors in it. The same file will compile and work perfectly on one machine, and not on another.
2.) The most severe of all...The two more complex components compile fine in cs4, but always "compile blank" on cs5, no matter what. The module files all compile much faster on cs5 and work great. However, the shared code library and the launcher program cannot be compiled in cs5, though they compile fine in cs4.   Both compile blank every single time on cs5, with no errors reported.
--Just as a side note here are the compile times on two different types of computers, for cs4 and cs5, for the three types of compiled files:
=====================
CS4 Compile time averages:
=====================
Dual Core - Pentium 4:
        Module File = 1-4 minutes
        Shared Code Library = 10+ minutes
        Launcher Program = Unusable
6 Core AMD w 16 GBs of RAM:
         Module File = less than 10 seconds
         Shared Code Library = approx. 1 minute
         Launcher Program = 15-25 minutes
=====================
CS5 Compile time averages:
=====================
Dual Core - Pentium 4:
        Module File = less than 20 seconds
        Shared Code Library = 2-4 minutes
        Launcher Program = Compiles blank
6 Core AMD w 16 GBs of RAM:
         Module File = less than 10 seconds
         Shared Code Library = less than 30 seconds
         Launcher Program = Compiles blank
========================================
Summary:
========================================
1.) Large and complex files in cs4 or cs5 can sometimes false compile, showing a blank swf, and no errors.
2.) Large interlinked projects containing many swcs that can compile on cs4 always compile blank on cs5
The issues involved "appear" to deal with interlinked swcs and swfs, memory, and compiler messages.
The best solution i can think of would be some sort of verbose mode setting, where the cs4/cs5 compilers can be set to trace all the actions they are taking, either to a log file, or to the screen. Rather than simply giving a summary of the results, a real-time display of what is occuring might lead to the actual bugs/issues.

Above is a link to adobe's official version of admitting this situation exists(and its true for cs5 as well).
If you are reading this, and simply have a single large file that won't compile. Attempt their solutions suggested. Also, click the link in the comments by the user refering to a blog that helped him.
That will explain the JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS memory issue (which you can find many explanations on google as well).
If however, you are working with a large number of separate swf's that load each other, and share assets and are getting the REAL problem, neither adobe's solutions, nor the JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS will correct the problem for you. My best suggestion to you is, have one SWF launch the next one, and break your project into pieces. Whatever the parent SWF needed to have, can be either copied into all the children SWFs, or into several "brother" SWFs which share the loaded children SWFs, (and can actually be successfully compiled). Then as you move from brother to brother, they can be made to appear as if they were actually ONE file, loading the children, instead of several launching each other, and sharing the loading duties.
and as far as adobe is concerned, if i told you what i thought of you, i would get this post deleted...and myself banned.
Anyone considering doing Enterprise level projects in Flash, DONT. I wanted to use JAVA, but my company went with flash. I am stuck working around it constantly, and would have been better off coding foundation classes to mimic whatever functionality we needed from flash into java.
Maybe when actionscript 4 comes along, it will magically bring with it true object oriented programming, and Adobe will spend the time and money to make a real working compiler. Somehow i doubt it.
