RoboHelp 9 ExtendScript leaving FrameMaker 10 open

I deleted the other topic because I was confused.
The following script opens a new instance of FrameMaker and does not close it. Is there some way to close it? FrameMaker.quit(); does not work.
//c:\scripts\admin_guide_robohelp.jsx - this script is called by admin_guide.bat
var projectPath = "C:\\Users\\rlauriston\\Documents\\My RoboHelp Projects\\foo\\bar.xpj";
main();
function main()
        if(projectPath == "")
               //Error!. Quit RoboHelp
               alert("Project path is not defined. \nPlease update the 'projectPath' variable in the script.");
               RoboHelp.quit();
        RoboHelp.openProject(projectPath); // open the project
        RoboHelp.project.updateAll(true); // force-update FrameMaker source
    RoboHelp.closeProject(); // close the project
        RoboHelp.quit(); //quit RoboHelp

Hi,
Perhaps RoboHelp needed to recreate the CPD. If you're on a machine that's no so speedy, it may take a while. When the CPD is created, the project can be opened much faster. Other than that, is the project located on a network drive? If so, move it to your local as project on network drives are begging to be corrupted. (And take a lot longer to open,)

  • RoboHelp 7 Compatibility with FrameMaker

    Do I need to upgrade from FrameMaker 7 to 8 in order to use
    RoboHelp 7? I am not able to do some things in the RoboHelp 7
    tutorial with FrameMaker 7 open.

    HI,
    According to other forum posts it will work with a little modification. See http://forums.adobe.com/message/4044941#4044941

  • How can I get RoboHelp to recognize my FrameMaker installation?

    I have Technical Suite 3.5 installed and several RoboHelp projects linked to FrameMaker books.
    The Frame books were created in FrameMaker 10. I then upgraded to Technical Suite 3.5, then later upgraded my FrameMaker to 11.
    All was well, RoboHelp continued to update from the Frame book files.
    Then last week my hard disk crashed. IT provided a new disk, installed the Technical Suite and FrameMaker 11, but now when I open the RoboHelp projects and try to update them, RoboHelp displays an error message that says "Adobe FrameMaker 10 is not installed. No FrameMaker documents can be updated."
    When I try to relink the project to FrameMaker (File | Link), I get a similar message:  "This operation cannot be completed without FrameMaker 10. Install FrameMaker 10 and try again."
    How can I get RoboHelp to recognize my FrameMaker 11 installation, which it used to do prior to the crash and reinstallation?
    Thanks.

    We also cannot get Robohelp to recognize our FrameMaker installation. 
    We are using Robohelp 9  and Framemaker 11.
    We are in the process of moving all of our Robohelp content to Framemaker, but our project team still needs CHM files for the next release or so.  So we figured we could move our content to Frame 11, then import the Frame content into Robohelp when we needed to generate the CHM files.
    The process works great when we use RH 10 and Frame 11, but we get the following error when we use RH 9:
    "This operation cannot be completed without FrameMaker.  Install FrameMaker and try again."
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Frame 11 and RH 9, but am still getting the same error.  Buying a set of new Robohelp 10 licenses probably isn't an option.
    Any other suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Sue

  • RoboHelp not detecting installed Framemaker

    I have a RoboHelp 8 project and want to import a file from Framemaker 6.0p405.
    I even opened the Framemaker book and from Framemaker launched RoboHelp. I am still getting the message:
    "This operation cannot be completed without FrameMaker. Please install FrameMaker and try again."
    In the RoboHelp help, it says:
    "FrameMaker book files created in a version earlier than FrameMaker 6 (BK) can only be imported into RoboHelp; they cannot be linked."
    So, I'm assuming that I should be able to import a Framemaker 6 file into RoboHelp 8.
    Best regards,
    Debbie
    P.S. I saw an earlier thread about this (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/458788?tstart=0), but I wasn't able to fix that problem with that thread.

    If starting RH8, creating a blank project and importing the FM6 book doesn't work, try saving the FM6 files as MIF and try importing them into RH8.

  • OCI code executed in 10g leaves file desc. open (ocius.msb) during errors

    If an application program encounters an error in database, the following file is left open:
    /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/rdbms/mesg/ocius.msb
    Once the number of open file descriptors exceeds the maximum set in the host (ulimit -n 1024),
    no more files can be opened.
    This behavior is observed ONLY FOR OCI code running on 10g. The latest OCCI code
    did not leave this file open, upon error conditions.
    The issue indicated in BUG ID 2463295 is not exactly same as this. (oraus.msb vs. ocius.msb) and (condition triggering the defect is different)
    We are using Oracle 10g on Solaris 10 operating system. Is this a known limitation or being fixed in any of the latest 10g patches?

    Haven't looked at this but it appears that it could affect usage of any message binary (MSB) files where an error occurs. If I get a chance, I'll look into it further and report it.

  • How to close current form but leave calling form open

    My case is like this, I am working on one form. It have 2 functions. One is serach function, let us call it A, the other is display/entry function, let us call it B. I first start window A to search record. From that record I open window B, when I close window B, I want to leave window A open so I can start a new search.
    Right now, when I close widows B, window A closed too. How can I close only window B. I tried both APP_NAVIGATE.EXECUTE and FND_FUNCTION.EXECUTE but did not work out.

    Thank you very much.
    The problem is how can I find out what is the module name or window name. This is a heavily custom Oracle Apps form CSXSRISR. It is quite big and I just got lost into those data block/trigger stuff.
    Is there a easy way to find out the module for each window?
    Thanks

  • Robohelp is ignoring my Framemaker paragraph style

    Robohelp is ignoring my Framemaker numberlist formatting and does not provide any kind of message mentioning an unsupported style.
    My numbered list appears as the screen shot below in the FrameMaker file
    1. View vCenter Server, ESX host, and virtual machine versions in the inventory.
    When i bring the FM file into Robohelp the numbered list looks like this
    1.View vCenter Server, ESX host, and virtual machine versions in the inventory.
    is there a way to maintain the style at the time of conversion?

    In that case you have to tweak the css to format the resulting content in RH. You could also play with trying out the other settings to see what results you get or create a numbered list style in RH that looks the way you want and use the Conversion Settings to map your FM paragraph format to the RH style.

  • My Robohelp html 8 project won't open after one warning and error message

    I'm currently using Robohelp HTML 8 and when I open my project  I first get the following message:
    After I click OK, I get this error message:
    The project won't open after that. When I look ate my files they seem to be intact even though the message says the folder is missing from
    Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Hi Joy
    Unless I'm mistaken, K would be a network drive, no?
    Unfortunately RoboHelp is only one of a host of applications that doesn't fare well if you try to make edits to a project while it resides on a network drive.
    Try copying the project to your local C drive. Perhaps create a folder named Projects and copy your project to a folder named Primo Intranet inside that folder so it looks like this:
    C:\Projects\Primo Intranet
    Once you do this, try opening your project again and you will likely have better luck.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Should I leave the email open on my MBP

    Hello all, should I leave my mail open or closed on my MBP?  I like to know when I have mail and thought that I might just leave it up?  Also I do like to hear a mail sound when mail comes in.

    That is up to you. No harm will come to your Mac or the mail program by leaving it open.

  • RoboHelp 10 Skin Navigation Button - Link Open in New Window

    I'm using RoboHelp 10 and am trying to get the button in my navigation skin to open a link in a new window.  I researched this extensively and have not been able to get it to work.  Can you please assist?

    Is that link for some external website or some pdf file etc?
    When you create a button on a skin and ask it open a file it should do that in the web browser.
    If the link is for a website etc then it might give you the following link but you can still open the url in a new window by clicking on 'Open this content in a new window".

  • Is it harmful to always leave several programs open and never shutting computer down?

    I never shut down my computer and simply let it to sleep.  I also let it sleep and leave several programs like illustrator open all the time.  Is this good for the computer or should I be closing down applications regularly?

    If your system is powered through an uninterruptible power
    source, there is no issue at all.
    If not, there is always the possibility of something going bad
    should a power outage occur.  This is true whether apps are
    open or not.  Modern systems can recover from such an event,
    but nothing is totally bulletproof to such an event.

  • Launch batch file from RoboHelp 9 ExtendScript?

  • Framemaker 12 opens existing documents blank

    Hi,
    Whenever I open an existing Framemaker 12 document, it comes up as a blank page. Going into Print Preview and then back again gets the page to show, as does File - Save As.
    Using Windows 7 x86 Enterprise and Framemaker 12.0.2
    Thanks

    I don't think it ever was officially documented as the Help for reformatting tables since FM8 states:
    To redefine a table format:
    1. Click in a table whose format you want to redefine, and choose Table > Table Designer. If the table you click in has format overrides, these overrides--not the catalog format's definition--appear in the Table Designer.
    It does seem odd though that in FM12 with the table selected via the anchor, the Designer does show any overrides applied, yet one cannot apply the override this way. Something has changed and it may be an unintended side-effect of something else. What the overall implication for this is unknown, but the programming team should be made aware of this.

  • RoboHelp does not recognize FrameMaker document

    I'm attempting to import a FrameMaker (version 8.0p266) document into RoboHelp HTML (version 7.00.145) and the following message appears:
    "Cannot import (filename). Make sure this is a valid FrameMaker document."
    It is a valid FrameMaker document that I have been working on in FrameMaker. It has quite a few embedded graphics and conditional text, so the document size is rather large (108, 598 KB), but other than that, there's nothing that I could see that would cause the import to fail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
