Error when linking FrameMaker book or document to RoboHelp project (TCS2)

Hi,
I'm trying to link a FrameMaker (9.0p250) book to a RoboHelp (8.0.2.208) project, but get the following error:
"Failed to get any FrameMaker document from C:\.....\myfile.book" / OK
When I select the book file to link and choose [Open] I get an hourglass for a couple minutes then the error above. No wizard or "Scanning..." progress window.
I've tried linking a book from a network drive, from my hard drive, with the book open in FM9 and not open in FM9 (but FM9 itself is open).
Also tried linking an FM9 document and this time got the "Scanning..." progress window then the message:
""myfile.fm" could not be opened. Please verify that FrameMaker is installed and this is a valid FrameMaker document."
This is my first time trying this since installing TCS2, however I was able to link a book file when working with the trial version.
Any idea what may be the problem?
Thanks in advance.
Heather

I think this was due to a PC or network issue. After redocking my laptop today I can now link without error.

  • Error when converting Framemaker book to PDF

    I get the following error message in the Distiller log when trying to print a Framemaker (ver 7.2) book to PDF (Acrobat ver 7.0):

    I am able to convert the individual chapter to PDF, but not as part of the book. I've searched the knowledge base and forums, but found no matches. Can someone assist me or point me in the right direction?

    Could be an unresolved cross reference.

  • RoboHelp 10 can't update linked FrameMaker book

    TCS 4
    Linked FrameMaker book
    HTML Help output
    When I open a previously working project and go to update the FrameMaker files, the Update and Update All options are greyed out.
    A possible culprit is that Windows Update ran automatically while the project was open, and then restarted the machine.
    If I Force Update All, RH launches an instance of FM, which doesn't open anything and remains on its startup screen. If FM is already running with the book + .fm files open, another instance of FM starts w/o loading any files. RH then hangs, going into a "Not responding" state in Task Manager.
    If I start a new blank project and attempt to link to the FM book, RH launches another blank instance of FM and hangs.
    I tried opening the project and exporting the project settings in an .isf file, but RH hangs trying to scan.
    i tried relinking the FM book, but RH launches another blank instance of FM and hangs.
    i tried deleting the book, but RH hung partially through the deletion.
    i tried reinstalling RH. Same behavior.
    Is there some file I can delete and/or restore to reacquiant FM and RH?
    Note that when Windows Update ran the FM book was open too, and when I subsequently generated/updated the book, some files were listed as missing and some cross-refs were broken. This was fixed by replacing the broken cross-refs. The FM book generated/updated with no errors before the first attempt to update in RH.
    Thanks.

    Summary
    This issue was resolved.
    It seems to have been a registry corruption on my machine due to a Windows Update restart that occurred when the Help project and FrameMaker project were open.
    The main symptom was that RoboHelp could no longer update the project from the FrameMaker files and was spawning a new instance of FM with each retry, even if FM was already open.
    I tried lots of things: opened a new project, restored a backup copy of project, attempted an export of project etc., etc. (see above).
    The solution was to:
    - revert to a "known good" restore point in Windows (before the auto-update)
    - deactivate and uninstall TCS 4
    - run Windows Update
    - re-install TCS 4
    - turn automatic Windows Updates OFF
    Everything in FrameMaker and RoboHelp generates properly now.

  • Error when generating IDoc from MC document - workitem to all the SAP users

    A workflow item with the subject of “Error when generating IDoc from MC document” is sent to all the SAP users' inbox. Is it possible to stop the generation of this work item? If that is not possible, can we limit sending the work item to a specific user/agent instead of all the users in the system?
    It appears that these work item or error message are generated when one of the developers reopen the POs and add line items. Moreover, during that time the procurement team blocked the IDOCs from going out to the vendors when changing and resaving the POs. Therefore, we need stop the generation of error message/work item when the IDOCs generation blocked.

    Please check Rule 70000141which is the default rule for this task. Inside this rule a FM is attcahed which is reading table EDO13 and EDPP1 where agent is retrieved Probably this table entries are not maintained. This Workflow is getting triggered from Message cOntrol I think.

  • Error when select posting level in document type

    Hi,
    Did anyone have an experience to face the Abab run time error when select "posting level" in document type?
    The Error is : GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED
    Short text
    Field symbol has not yet been assigned.
    What happened?
    Error in the ABAP Application Program
    The current ABAP program "CL_UC_ITKEY_FACTORY===========CP" had to be
    terminated because it has
    come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.

    If you searched the notes, as Dan proposed (and didn't find anything relevant), and the answer to the Greg's question is positive, then I would suggest regeneration data basis and ConsArea due to data model inconsistency.
    If it doesn't not help - open customer message to SAP.

  • Error when linking report to stored procedure defined with one input parm

    Error when linking report to stored procedure defined with one input parameter
    The report will work ok, when the parameter is removed from the stpred procedure
    An unhandled win32 exception occurred in crw32.exe[4480]
    Stored Proc (sql server 2005)
    USE [Allegro]
    GO
    /****** Object:  StoredProcedure [dbo].[SP_Test]    Script Date: 07/08/2009 10:42:14 ******/
    SET ANSI_NULLS ON
    GO
    SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
    GO
    ALTER procedure [dbo].[SP_Test](@valuationmode VARCHAR(55)) as
    Begin
    select
         valuation,
         valuationtime,
         valuationmode
    from valuation
    where valuationmode = @valuationmode;
    End;

    This is an example of a stored procedure that is trying to be linked to a new report as the only datasource.
    If I remove the parameter I can create a report, however this will return all of the results of thw query to the report, rather than the desired results. If I add the parameter on the Crystal Report, the stored procedure then has to return all of the results to Crystal and then perform the filtering of records. By using a parameter in the stored procedure, you should be able to do all of the filtering as part of the query on the databse server, making this more efficient.

  • Java Script Errors when clicking on several opened documents

    All of a sudden I started having problems shutting down
    Dreamweaver MX 6.1
    Later , when I open two or more documents I get an error when
    I click on the document in the background.
    A series of dialog boxes come after eachother and say the
    following:
    1. While executing Browse_back enabled in toolbars.xml, a
    java script error occurred
    2. While executing Browse_back enabled in toolbars.xml, a

    5. While executing get current value in AddressURL.htm
    enabled in toolbars.xml, a java script error occurred
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program several times
    and it did not help. I have also installed Dreamweaver MX 6.1

  • Updating JUST ONE topic in linked FrameMaker book

    I am trying to figure out exactly how the Update, Force
    Update, and Update All picks work in the TCS. It seems like
    everytime I make even a small change in a linked Frame doc, I slect
    Update to synch my help system and then end up losing all of the
    manual work I have done in RH!!! :-(
    Please Help!

    If you have, say, 30 chapters in a FrameMaker book, you can
    update the content in RoboHelp by each chapter. That is, you don't
    need to update the whole book when you want to update the chapter.
    Use "Update" for one document and "Update All" for all FrameMaker
    documents/books in RoboHelp project. However, you cannot Update by
    HTML topic in RoboHelp. For example, if a chapter in FrameMaker is
    converted to 15 topics in RoboHelp, you need to update the whole
    chapter.
    There is another powerful feature in RoboHelp which helps you
    preserve the topics in RoboHelp from any update. Right click on the
    FrameMaker document (chapter in a book) and select properties. In
    one of the tabs, you can select topics which you don't want to get
    updated when you update the Chapter. This feature is powerful
    however should be used with caution.
    I hope this helps

  • Get out of memory error when linking Frame doc to RoboHelp project

    I just upgraded to TC Suite 5.
    Now I'm trying to link FrameMaker files to my RoboHelp project. The FrameMaker files are from a document that was done in Frame 9 (TC Suite 3.5) and now has been converted to Frame 11. It's working fine in Frame 11. No errors when opening any of the files in Frame 11.
    I created a new project in RH 11 and tried linking the FM files to it. Some work, but some bring on an Out of Memory message. Interestingly, one file that is 68MB worked fine, one file that's only 58MB brings that message.
    I'm going to try using an Externalize Graphics addon that worked well with the old Frame--I can only hope it works with FM 11 now.
    Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening, and any solutions besides externalizing the graphics and trying to reduce the file size?
    Thanks.

    I was finally able to get the files to work by opening and saving in FrameMaker numerous times.
    Re: your questions. . . I did not try importing directly. I linked and then generated. Yes, the linking did work with RH9 from the TCS 3.5.

  • Print internal error when tring to print PPA document

    Hello experts,
        We got a problem when we tried to print out PPA document in HR system using t-code PHAP_ADMIN_PA. The system always shows the message Error when printing: Internal error. And message no: HRHAP00_DOCUMENT160.
        I have searched the forum but I have no idea how can I check and how can I do to solve this problem. Can anyone help me?
        Any help will be highly appreciated.

    Hi Joseph,
    This error is usually linked to an incorrect configuration of the printer.
    Please check the following notes for information on the type of printer supported for PDF
       685571 - Printing PDF-based forms
    Check also your ADS settings (or install it if it's not already done as it is required for PDF as well).
    The installation steps you can fbe found in ADS Configuration Guide:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/37/504b8cbc2848a494facfdc09a359b1/frameset.htm
    Once installed or if it's there already then please check the following:
    Execute the ADS test program "FP_TEST_00" in your system, check whether form is being displayed once you specify the
    printer name. Also, could you check in transaction SM59 the ADS status?
    In order to print an appraisal form, you need:
    1- the Adobe Document Services (ADS) installed and well configured
       on a J2EE engine in your system landscape
    2- an appropriate connection called ADS maintained in SM59
    ADS configuration guide is available on Help Portal.http://help.sap.com/nw2004s
    -> SAP NetWeaver Library -> Technology Consultant's Guide ->Cross-NetWeaver Configurations -> Adobe Document Services ->Configuration.
    Please also make sure, that ADS is used on a supported platform. You can check the Product Availability Matrix (PAM) for informationabout supported plattforms for ADS.Link: http://service.sap.com/pam

  • Got errors when trying to open word document with Office Web App Server and customized WOPI host

    I am configuring the Office Web App Server with our ASP.NET MVC WOPI host based on this example. https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/office/Building-an-Office-Web-f98650d6. While both the OWA server and WOPI server has been set up and I can use Excel and PowerPoint

    When I open a word document while enabling editing I got this error:

    Hi Gary Jiang,
    Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.
    This forum is for developers discussing issues about
    apps for Office.
    Based on the description, it seems that you got an issue when you deploy the code sample. If I understood clearly, I suggest that you contact the author of the code sample from the "Q and A" tab.
    Also if you have the question about WOPI, I suggest that you get more effective response from
    Office
    Protocols forum.

  • The document could not be saved error when Saving to a SharePoint Document Library

    I am having an error when opening and commenting on Adobe PDF's that are stored in SharePoint 2010. When I attempt to save a PDF I have commented on I get the following error:
    The Document could not be saved. The server said:
    "The operation failed because an unexpected error occurred. (Result code: 0x80020005)"
    This seems to happen in a Document Library that is based on a custom template with Managed Metadata columns, when we remove the columns it seems to work and when we create a library with a standard document library template and manually add the manage metadata columns it also works fine.
    We would make this change to all document libraries where this issue occurs however this template is applied to 100's of libraries with thousands of documents stored in them. Is there anything we can look at to attempt to resolve this issue?
    Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc. documents seem to work fine in these libraries.

    Hi quodd,,
    We are sorry for the issue being faced by you. I need some information from you so that I take further steps:
    1. Which Adobe product are you using Acrobat or Adobe reader- what is the complete version?
    2. How are you opening and saving the PDF, the exact workflow?
         Are you doing it from within Adobe Reader/Acrobat application or opening it from browser, doing changes and saving it using browser itself.
    3. Can you try to save a PDF to library with Custom template and managed metadata columns using browser directly.
    4. Please verify that columns name do not contain spaces or some other special characters.
       Can you try to save PDF to library with Custom template and just a single managed metadata column  with a simple name
    Thanks,
    Nikhil Gupta
