RoboHelp hangs at startup and using robosource control

Hi everybody,
I am relatively new to this forum. I have been using RH X5.02
now for a few months.
|'m quite pleased with it until now and find all postings
here very useful.
So I was content until last monday when I returned from a
holiday of 10 days.
Normally I start RH by clicking a link to RoboHTML.exe from
my desktop.
Instead of asking me which of my projects to open I got
ZILCH.
RH just hangs, the only way to stop is to use task manager to
end the process.
The same happens when I want to add a project to version
control.
the icons of my 'Most recently used file list' (Tools -
Options - General) contain a big red question mark.
I can't remember seeing that before.
Based on previous postings I unchecked 'Save without prompt'.
This didn't change anything.
I did experiment installing PushOK CVS SCC NT interface (v
2.1.1.2) to be able to use the Turtoise CVS version control system
which seemed to work OK.
I didn't decide to use the PushOK and Turtoise system yet,
but kept on using RoboSource control. I didn't uninstall the PushOK
interface as I wanted to do an extra test on our central Turtoise
CVS system later.
I had to renew the trial license for PushOK's software when I
came back. This came up when I started RoboHTML the first time
after my holiday.
As I suspected that this extra interface could have something
to do with my problems I uninstalled and reinstalled all software,
without reinstalling the PushOK software. I did take the projects
out of version control before I uninstalled everything.
I expected to have no problems after all this, but to my
surprise it didn't change anything.
I suspect it has to be something in the registry and/or the
project files themselves.
I am working on several RH HTML-projects at the 'same time',
switching from one into another. All projects are (or were) in
RoboSource control.
I'm working on a Dell laptop using Windows XP Professional
which is automatically updated to latest versions. Yes, all files
are installed locally on the laptop, including the files in
RoboSource Control.
We use NOD 32 virus scanning software.
Can anybody shine some light on this
situation?
tks, Paul

Hi Peter,
I'm sorry, I left out an important piece of info: when I
start RH from the file manager by clicking a RH project it will
start.
I also made a shortcut in whit a project-file to open: no
problem starting.
So I can work and I can open a new project with no problems.
Problem starts as soon as I try to add the project to Version
Control.
I checked all processes and services on my computer. Made
sure all PushOK and CVS software was not installed.
RoboSourceControl was not able to see alternative SCC drivers
to use anymore.
The problems stay.
I can work, if I avoid version control. So I uninstalled
RoboSourceControl too.
Menu's in RH are adjusted and of course I don't have the
hangup problem either
I still can't just start the RH exec without specifying a
starting project. It will just freeze.
If you or anybody else have other suggestions I would be
really gratefull, because I want to use the version control.
tks

  • How to create and use Webservice controls using WSDL in weblogic portal10.3

    Hi All,
    I have WSDL , How to create webservice controls using the WSDL in weblogic portal 10.3 and use those controls to invoke those webservice methods?
    please give me the documents links for this.
    Thanks
    Venkata Sarvabatla

    As far as I remember, Controls can be called only from Pageflows, BackingFiles, Another Control (Like control calling another control) etc. In pageflow we use annotation @Control and give control classname and a varialbe for that. I am pretty sure this annotation may not work from normal java class and in your case a JAVA JSR Class.
    If you installed the samples, refer the samples from WLS: C:\beawlp103\wlserver_10.3\samples\server\examples\src\examples\webservices. They have lot of fully ready to work samples with instructions. I used clientgen ant task. But you can use standard SUN JDK Command "wsimport" also to generate the java files from the WSDL. Open any command prompt. If java is in classpath, just run wsimport and that should give an idea.

  • Dreamweaver Site Publish_CLICK TO ACTIVATE AND USE THIS CONTROL ERROR WHEN PUBLISHING

    Hi all, recently after publishing and testing my site I
    noticed where my flash files are located boxes around the files
    with a "CLICK TO ACTIVIATE AND USE THIS CONTROL" pop up thing
    occur, when I hover over the flash parts. Can you please tell me
    why this occurs and how to remove it? It works fine on safari but
    using internet explorer, there seems to be a problem.
    hope u can help

    It's IE-only behaviour as a result of changes Microsoft made
    earlier this
    year to their browser, regarding how Active Content (Flash,
    Quicktime etc)
    is handled, after losing a high profile court case.

  • HTML View - Click to activate and use this control

    Hi, I have an HTML View in my VC App.  When the HTML View is presented it has to be clicked on. There is also a tool tip that states "Click to activate and use this control".   I didn't see any mention of this in the forums. 
    Is there any way to get rid of this? 
    Thanks,
    Ken Murray

    Hi Kenneth,
    maybe you had this issue not before and then you have patched your windows system. This issue comes with a microsoft patch last year I think it was october or november.
    Here on SDN is a how-to available which explains how you can remove this patch, but I think it's not recommend to remove security patches.

  • Press SPACEBAR or ENTER to activate and usee this control

    Hi,
    Just started using Flash 8 and i seem to be getting a border
    with the following message around any Flash content i use in the
    site, message: 'Press SPACEBAR or ENTER to activate and use this
    control'
    I never had this with MX2004, any ideas anyone, pretty
    annoying on an entire flash site.
    Appreciate any help offered,
    Pat

    just search the forums - been the "hot topic" for a few weeks
    - lengthy discussions been going on
    everyday as we are all dealing with this (microsoft/Eolas
    patent issue). Try searching google for
    "active content" - tons of information in the form of
    announcements, blogs, articles, etc...all over
    the web.
    As a developer there are various methods using js to activate
    content automatically - if you are
    just a web surfer you cant do anything.
    hope this helps.

  • Apps taking longer to startup and use

    In my main OSX startup profile some apps Office, sometimes Safari, and others are taking longer than normal to startup and use. I booted into my administrator account and everything there is speedy so this appears to be a software issue somewhere. I am going to rebuild disk permissions, but I don think that will do the trick. It also takes years to perform this task in Snow Leopard. Tiger could do the job in half the time it takes Snow Leopard. Anyone got other suggestions to try? I am going to do some googling.
    Thanks,

  • How to prevent people asking how to prevent "click to activate and use this control"

    When I visit the fourms, I keep seeing these questions about
    how to disable
    "click to activate and use this control". Its really annoying
    and
    disrupting my web experience. I do know this really this is a
    blatant
    attack on Adobe and Flash by Microsoft and is obviously
    related to the Adobe
    takeover of Macromedia, and probably also related to the fact
    that it is now
    impossible for anyone to install Flash Player (which Adobe is
    ignoring
    because their support is so useless since the takeover). Is
    there something
    I can do to prevent these questions being posted? I've
    searched all the
    forums and cannot find any information. Surely someone else
    has had this
    problem.

  • "Click to activate and use this control" in IE

    When using Flash forms, IE 7 surrounds them with a box and
    prompts users to "click ot activate and use this control." Is this
    the old Flash problem with using object or embed tags without
    javascript to embed movies? Is there a way to fix how ColdFusion
    embeds Flash forms so people don't have to click on them before
    they can use them? Maybe it's fixed in CF 8?
    I found the answer here:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&threadid=1141999&STA RTPAGE=2&FTVAR_FORUMVIEWTMP=Linear.
    Not sure why this comes up in Google but I couldn't find it through
    the Adobe site, this forum system really sucks i.e. slow searches
    to the point of being useless.

    What version of CF are you using? This was fixed with the CF

  • Hoe do i avoid "click to activate and use this control" message?

    how avoid th problem of getting the message below...when
    there is a flash movie in my HTML file?
    "click to activate and use this control"

    Oh god .. here we go again .. Obviously someone has been
    living under a rock
    or on a deserted island for a few months :)
    This is due to Microsoft IE changes required to avoid
    infringing the
    (stupid) EOLAS patent. It applies to all Active-X control
    that can interact
    with the user.
    If you are viewing a web site, you cannot really do anything
    to fix it,
    except complain to the web master
    Here is a link to find information on how to fix your website

  • HTM says: "Click to activate and use this Control"?

    When I open my published Captivate movie in Internet Explorer
    (clicking on the htm file), my cursor becomes the shape of a hand,
    and there is small a mouseover that says "Click to activate and use
    this Control". I am using Flash 9. I must click 1x to activiate
    something, then my Captivate buttons work just fine.
    What is the control I'm activating? Can I turn off this
    prompt in Security settings? This will drive end users bonkers.
    I don't get this issue in Firefox.

    Hi pcorad
    This has been an issue since Microsoft was forced to alter
    the way Internet Explorer handles content such as Flash. To work
    past it, you can use JavaScript. (This is the reason for the
    existence of the additional standard.js file we see in Captivate 2)
    You might wish to search the forums for the phrase "click to
    activate" and you should find many results that explain things in
    more detail.

  • Labview 8.0.1 hangs on startup and shutdown

    I have been using Labview 8.0.1 and Teststand 3.5 on my laptop for a few weeks (eval versions)
    during the time I don't have access to my PXI platform.
    Today when I tried to shutdown my laptop, Labview would not shut down and could
    not be terminated. After 10min or so it finally shut down. After reboot of the system, labview
    hangs on startup during "finishing intialization", and must be terminated. I cannot launch it at all.
    Please tell me there is a way to fix it without reinstall.

    Woah there!  Let’s
    take a step back before we take drastic measures…..
    First of all, does your Laptop meet all of the minimum requirements
    of the install of LabVIEW?  Do you have
    sufficient RAM, do you have a supported OS, and do you have a capable video driver?  All of these things make a difference!  Additionally, there is a way to set the NI
    services (or any service for that matter) to run when needed as opposed to
    automatically running on startup. To do this, open the Windows Control Panel,
    and click on “Administrative Tools” and open “Services”.  From here you can start and stop services, as
    well as configure them to run in “manual” mode which will start them only as
    needed.
    There should never be a problem with uninstalling NI
    Software due to NI services running.  The
    proper way to uninstall LabVIEW is to first shut down all NI programs you have
    open.  Then, go to control
    panel->add/remove programs->national instruments software and choose “change”.  From here you can uninstall LabVIEW by
    clicking on it and selecting “remove”. 
    Installing 8.0.1 should have had no effect on the NI services or LabVIEW.  Did you reboot and mass compile the LV directory after the
    8.0.1 install?  It’s also important to note
    that all of the LabVIEW 8.0 installers are the same.  The version of LabVIEW that is installed
    depends on which version is “unlocked” based on the serial number you enter
    when activating LabVIEW.
    It is entirely possible that for some reason one of the NI
    services is hanging, or behaving poorly. 
    I think you were on the right track with starting debugging from that
    point.  We could also try to determine
    which exact service is causing problems, then determine which software that
    service installed with and troubleshoot from there.
    I assure you that many people are running with all sorts of
    NI software combinations on their machines without these problems.  If there is some problem with an NI service
    on your machine, installing a new version of LabVIEW might not make a
    difference anyway.  I do apologize that
    this has been causing you problems, and I thank you for the debugging completed
    so far.  I hope this information proves useful -- please let us know how things
    go!
