Manifest.xml - Manifest file in Captivate 6

Hello,
I am publishing a course and uplaoding it to my LMS using SCORM 2004 and it says the Manifest file (manifest.xml) could not be found and the page thus cannot be found. Does anyone know how to fix this or could walk me through what I did wrong?

If the Captivate publish dialog shows that it is zipping the files, then unzip one of them again yourself and see if you can see a file called imsmanifest.xml at the top level of the folder structure.

Publishing in Captivate 3, SCORM 1.2, no manifest file...

I’m using Captivate 3, publishing to FLASH/SWF with SCORM 1.2 enabled. I’m only getting a zip with two swf files and nothing else.
I’ve selected Quiz Results only, Score to LMS as Percent, Report Pass/Fail with Reporting level as Interactions and score.
I’ve required Answer all – the user must answer every question to continue
Selected Allow user to review quiz, show score at end of quiz and show progress
In LMS Customization settings, nothing is selected.
When I access Advanced Interaction there are nothing but blank spaces in the Track Score column for the Quiz slides.
I believe this is why when I publish I’m not getting a manifest file, but I have run out of ideas.

On your Quiz Settings select:
Status Representation
Incomplete-->Complete
Success/Completion Criteria
Report slides viewed = 100%
Uncheck Quiz
Uncheck Data to Report/Interation Data
Click the Advanced button and select "Set extit to normal after completion".

SCORM manifest files

when i publish a project in Captivate 2, the manifest file
that generates is titled 'breeze-manifest', and it won't import
into our Pathlore LMS... in the 'reporting' window i have the
'scorm' radio button selected and completed all the required fields
in the 'manifest' area... can anyone help me figure out why i'm
getting the breeze-manifest stuff instead of the manifest
information for the course?...

Hi,
In Order to generate the imsmanifest.xml which will contain
the information for SCORM, you MUST have atleast one scoring object
in your project. That is either a question slide or any interactive
object (like button/click box) with tracking enabled.
To enable the tracking for an interactive object, go to the
reporting tab of the object (from object properties) and tick -
Include in Quiz and reporting.
After this when you publish the project with HTML you will
see the manifest XML file in the published location.

Need help with a manifest file

I'm trying to make a jar file executable, and I've seen numerous questions and answers regarding this particular issue, and none of them helped me with my problem.
I have a batch file that runs the application without any problem, but when I try to create a manifest with the main class attribute copied char by char from my batch file and run it, I get a message "could not find the main class".
I been browsing the web for the past 4 hours* now and the only type of answers I see for that problem is something like this:
...Main-Class... "${main.class}".
This type of solution is worthless to me, since it doesn't tell me why my path is correct when I use the .bat file and incorrect when used in a .jar file.
Thanks,
Omer.

I read there the related topics.
However, it wasn't even close to being helpful.
I'm using ant and the inner build.xml syntax is probably eluding me somewhere.
In fact, if it was possible to find an example build file that was written for ant 1.6 or later and contains the Main-Class attribute (I've seen some examples that contain an example file, but none of them contained the Main-Class attribute, and I found some Main-Class examples but none of them showed where they should go or how they should appear within the manifest file.
I'm at the point when I'm about to give up the whole idea and provide the unprofessionally looking .bat file.
I thank anyone who has put his mind to this issue, but if there is no build.xml example, I guess you can't help me.
Thanks anyway.
It's frustrating to see how the most flexible language there is to work with when coding, becomes next to impossible to work with when you need to deploy it.
Update, 30.04.2008:
I have managed to figure out that the problem wasn't with the main class, but with the classpath.
I run the program from Intellij, and everything works perfectly. I use a batch file, and perfect. I try to use an Ant generated jar with the classpath attribute set exactly like the batch file's paths, and nothing.
There is no error message either.
The classpath is located under "/lib/*.jar" in the distribution directory, where the "program.jar" is located.
I have come to the point that i would pay to see a proper working build.xml and to see the relative and absolute paths of the classpath.
This is actually harder than developing an extremely rich server application.

Powershell: How do I upload files with metadata from a manifest file?

I am using the script from this blog to try to upload files into SharePoint, using a manifest file to specify the metadata associated with each file. Right now, the script works, but is not populating
the metadata from the manifest (xml) file. When I write the $metadataManifest variable out to the console, I get the contents of my xml file, so the code is reading the file when it should. However when it gets to the line in bold ($metadataManifest.Columns.Column),
it does not go into that block...it just skips on to checkin the file. Again the $metadataManifest variable shows all the content in my xml manifest file. Here is what the script looks like...

I can't figure out what am doing wrong...why my script is not iterating through the manifest file to upload the document along with the metadata. I would really appreciate any help. Thanks

Hi Spawn,
Name should not be a problem.. I will probably post you the entire code (I modified it to meet your goals for having multiple column xml nodes as well)
For the code snippet below:
a. In powershell all my changes will have ## prefixed comments
b. in XML I have changed one column name to "Name" to replicate your case and also added a parent node for making the xml well formed.

"Could not find project's extension manifest file."

I am trying to load the Illustrator SDK sample FreeGridUI. In the documentation supplied by adobe, it says:
1. In the IDE, choose File > Import > Flash Builder > Flash Builder Project.
2. Select "Project folder" and browse to SDK_root\samplecode\FreeGridUI.
3. Click Finish to import the project.
4. Build the project.
When I do that I get an error message that says:
"Could not find project's extension manifest file. Make sure the manifest exists at .staged-extension/CSXS/manifest.xml."
But as you can see from the attached screen shot, the manifest is in that exact location.
Also when I edit the manifest in the "bundle manifest editor" and then close the manifest tab, is asks me if I want to save the manifest. When I choose yes and re-open the manifest... none of my changes have been saved.
Anybody got any ideas?
-Bill

Okay,
I feel stupid, but I also feel like adobe should feel stupid too. Turns out I missed the "." at the beginning of the ".staged-extension" path. But adobe put that folder in their sample without the "." in front. So much for a "working sample." Anyway, I dropped into terminal and did a "mv staged-exnestion .staged-extension" and now all is well. Hope that helps someone. Sorry for crying wolf.

Problem with manifest file and Plateau LMS

I have published a course with a quiz in SCORM 1.2 and tried
to upload to a Plateau LMS.
It seems that a "page cannot be found" message is the result
after upload and we try to launch the course. The course works
outside the LMS (when run locally on my computer).
The Plateau LMS support team tried to help, and found the
following: "There is something wrong with this manifest, though I
cannot ascertain what that is exactly. Most of the file name is in
the parameter field, which is causing the launch path to look like
this:
/content/apmm/cbcgis/mars/BRTMAIN/MARS?BRT%20Maintenance%20Template_%2020080226.htm=
Everything in the parameters field is placed after the
filename in a URLencoded querystring after the question mark that
you see above. it should look like this:
/content/apmm/cbcgis/mars/BRTMAIN/MARS BRT Maintenance
Template_ 20080226.htm"
Can anyone please help resolve this, or have any advice?
This is the first time we have tried uploading Captivate
courses to this LMS, and we have been having problems with the
manifest file in general. I have looked at all the material I can
find on publishing and the manifest file, but cannot seem to
resolve my issue.
Thanks
Warwick

Warwick,
I have had this error with an Authorware set of SCORM files
when my LMS was looking for index.htm and I had named it index.html
- you wouldn't think that would cause an error but it did. I would
be more than happy to package a Captivate file of just a few
screens that works on my LMS (which is Learn.com's Learning
Center), and send you the SCORM files to test... That could be a
start anyhow. I will send you a private msg. with my e-mail
id.

Asdoc how to add a custom local namespace with manifest file?

Hi there,
I use the flex 4 beta1 sdk to test the following:
I have:
MainScreen.mxml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Group xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
    xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
    xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo"
    xmlns:views="com.xyz.core.view.components.*"
    >
    <views:AbcView id="abcView" right="20" />
</s:Group>
I tried to use a manifest file which seems to be how to handle this kind of situation (using ant):
    <arg line="-namespace views ${manifest.file}"/>
    <arg line="-doc-namespaces views"/>
the manifest.xml contain the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<componentPackage>
           <component id="AbcView" class="com.xyz.core.view.components.AbcView" />
</componentPackage>
when I compile asdoc return the following error:
...MainScreen.mxml(52): Error: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: AbcView
Any idea how I can force asdoc to add/recognize AbcView.mxml ? Is my use of manifest file correct in this situation?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best regards.

Manifest file with packages

I am trying to create a Jar that has a bean as well as a package (jaxp) that the bean uses. Do I need to put every file needed by the bean in the manifest file or can I just put the package?
Here is my current manifest file:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Name: XMLBean.class
Java-Bean: True
Name: javax/
Name: javax/xml/
Name: javax/xml/parsers/
The Bean needs to access the javax.xml.parsers package. When I run the bean (being accessed via COM/VB) it complains that a class in that package is not found?
Any help with creating the manifest file is helpful. is there a package tag that I dont know about?
Thanks

Hi,
Can you please tell me what does these mean ? Are they something classpaths .
I am having a problem in trying to point to classes used by an applet which are jarred and are in different packages.
Name: javax/
Name: javax/xml/
Name: javax/xml/parsers/
Thanx,

Change manifest file in existing EAR file with ANT task

Hi,
I use ant task (ojdeploy) to create EAR files from ADF application.
Now I want to add the application version number to MANIFEST.MF.
Is it possible to do the manifest file modification IN THE EXISTING EAR FILE (or while creating the EAR file with ojdeploy) with ant task or do I have to do the modification in the source MANIFEST.MF and after this create EAR file with ojdeploy?
BTW: I tried the <ear> task to create the EAR file instead of using ojdeploy but I was not able to find the needed deployment descriptor (appxml="application.xml") in my ADF appication.
regards
Peter

Hi Peter,
I don't know of a way to do it directly in ANT/ojdeploy. However, you could try exploding the EAR, updating the manifest, and recreating the EAR - cumbersome and slow, but it should work.

Licensing and Manifest File

We have two Lic for Adobe Captivate2. When we try to package
a captivate demo using SCORM, only one lic will create the manifest
file for us. Both Lic were purchased at the same time. Please help.
We just found out that when we package the same captivate
file using captivate Macromedia captivate, all the necessary files
are created and loaded successfully into our LMS (Saba).
Unfortunatlly, I cannot say the same thing about Adobe
Captivate 2.

AS I understand it, a manifest won't be generated if there's
nothing to
track. I always assumed that meant at least one interaction
had to be
marked as 'scored' and the Quiz Manager settings had to be
completed
(type of tracking, etc). I don't know if 'track by slide
views' means a
manifest will be generated or not...
But you're suggesting that on one system, without any scored
interactions and no Quiz Manager settings, that a manifest is
being
generated with just 'track by slide views' checked?
I'm not familiar enough to know if that's all that should be
needed, nor
if that option should result in a manifest.
A common workaround for content that needs to be viewed but
has no
'quiz' is to place a scored interaction on the first slide
that simply
says something like 'Click here to begin'. Since everyone
clicks to
start the course, they automatically score 100%, which can be
correlated
to a 'completed' status.

Deploying 2005 package to server with manifest file, but deployment wont see my config file?

I have a package working and Ive installed it on one server, but cant seem to recall how I got it to see the config file Im using. I tried using a manifest file but it simply wont pick up the config file when running through the wizard. All Im
doing is copying over the manifest file to the server, remoting into the server, then running the package deployment wizard from there. Why would the config file not be seen?

Hi Shiftbit,
The issue occurs because you didn’t copy the XML Configurations file with the Manifest file and the packages to the new server. To install the manifest file in a new server, we must copy all of the following files:
Manifest file
.dtsx files of the packages
XML Configurations files
If we only copy the manifest file, the deployment will succeed without the package configurations stage but no packages will be installed in reality. If we only copy the Manifest file and the .dtsx files of the packages, the deployment succeeds without the
package configurations stage, and the packages will be installed successfully actually. Only when we copy all of the three type files, the deployment can recognize the package configurations successfully and install the packages properly.

Problem building swc that contains s:SolidColor with manifest file

Hi all,
I have a problem compiling a library with the command line compiler. The problem is that when I don't use a Manifest file, everything compiles as expected. When I specify a Manifest file for building my swc, I get an error "Could not resolve <s:SolidColor> to a component implementation".
My library consists of one class, which is: Test.mxml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Group xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark">
<s:Rect x="50" y="50" width="100" height="100">
    <s:fill>
      <s:SolidColor />
    </s:fill>
</s:Rect>
</s:Group>
This is my Manifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<componentPackage>
          <component id="Test" class="Test"/>
</componentPackage>
This commands gives no error and results in a swc successfully
compc -output TestLibrary.swf -include-classes Test -source-path .
This commands leads to the error "Could not resolve <s:SolidColor> to a component implementation"
compc -output TestLibrary.swf -include-classes Test -source-path . -compiler.namespaces.namespace http://test Manifest.xml -include-namespaces http://test
I think this is the correct way of creating an swc using a Manifest file. Is this correct (so this is a bug?) or am I doing something wrong?

There's nothing about that VI I can imagine causing an error on build. You might try doing a force compile of your app to track it down. Try opening up your top level VI, hold CTRL+Shift and hit the run arrow at the same time. If it gives you a broken arrow, you can bring up the error list to try to find it. Maybe this will help locate the problem. If you haven't already, might not hurt to do a mass compile of the SPC VI's also.

Validating Manifest File Error

Upon publishing my file, I run it through the ReloadScormPlayer 1.2. and get the following error with the manifest file. Any ideas as what I need to do to fix this?
