Runtime error in Dreamweaver CS4

When trying to start to work with Dreamweaver CS4 I get a runtime error
Afther building a website in in div's and css and saving it I had no problems. Afther closing the computer and starting to work the next morning I got the error. I've restarted my computer, cleaned my registry but still the error appears.
Does anyone no what to do? Please help.
It is impossible to work without Dreamweaver.

I am using Vista so file locations are different. Still, I cannot find any preferences folder or configuration folder that I can rename to recreate. There is no "CreamWeaver" folder in the user profile - even in the hidden parts.
Anyone have any other ideas?
Rename the folder to Configuration_old and launch Dreamweaver. It should create a new Configuration folder with the factory defaults.
On Vista, it's located at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS4\en_US\Configuration.
It's a hidden folder, so you need to enable hidden folders in Windows Explorer.
Technote:
Try step 4 in the following technote: - corrupt cache file:

If that doesn't work Try #12 - deleting your personal configuration folder.

Error Installing Dreamweaver CS4 on Windows 7: Installer Database is Corrupt

Error Message: The Installer Database is Corrupt. Please contact Adobe Customer Service.
I bought a new laptop and would like to install Dreamweaver CS4 on it. It is already running fine on my desktop, being installed back in 1/2011. Both PCs are Windows 7 but the new laptop is Windows 7 Professional. I have downloaded the two install files ADBEDRWVCS4_LS1.7z and ADBEDRWVCS4_LS1.exe multiple ways and to multiple locatons on the laptop. I've run the .exe file multiple ways and extracted to several locations besides the default (c:\users\userid\Desktop\Adobe CS4). After the extract completes and it tries to run setup I get the same message "The Installer Database is corrupt. Please Contact Adobe Customer Service" (which I did and they just gave me another download link I had already tried).
I even copied the folder with the extracted files done on my desktop (where the install had succeeded). And still got the same message when I ran setup.exe on the laptop. I tried running it with a "run as administrator" command prompt, double-clicking in Windows Explorer, start > run and the same thing happens. At least it doesn't appear that it has actually installed anything yet.
I did notice that my new PC has a program called "7-zip 9.20" installed which I do not remember installing and its install date is prior to my purchase of the PC so I'm guessing it came with it (HP Pavilion 15t running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit). The Windows 7 Desktop does not have this program installed. It is available from C|net where it has a good rating. Perhaps setup.exe does further extracting and the 7-zip program is the culprit? This is a long shot.
I searched for others with this problem and found lots of issues installing Dw CS4, but none quite like this.

Awesome! That worked! Actually I searched three folders (Program Files, Program Files (x86) & Program Data) for caps.db and found:
c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premier Elements\caps.db (dated 9/2/2011)
c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Backup\caps.db
I ignored the first one since it might be needed by the Premier Elements 10 I installed yesterday and changed the name of the other one from caps.db to barb.fix.
I changed the install folder from c:\Program Files\Adobe to c:\Program Files (x86) just in case CS4 is a 32-bit application which I had done before when installing on my Windows7 Desktop. Now that the install has completed I see that I have caps.db files dated 5/5/2014 in
c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\caps\caps.db
c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\backup\caps.db (barb.fix is still there but is only 26kb vs 3291 kb for the new caps.db)
Thank-you so much! Now wish me luck when I try to open it for the first time!

Runtime error in Photoshop cs4

I have been using the Adobe Photoshop CS4 application for a while now...however...it has kind of broken on me now.
Everytime I run the application now, it gives me a runtime error.
"Runtime Error!
Program C:\Pro...
after instaling new updates from adobe flash & reader i have uninstalled everything and re installed it all and i still get the error
im runninhg windowns vista 64x

What caused the problem with the cs4 Photoshop? i don't know. all i did was install an update for abobe flash and reader and then i had a problem with Photoshop. i did uninstall Photoshop and then again reinstalled it and still did not work.so i must say the answer you gave me was not only useless but wrong too. what are runtime errors i don't know & don't care & the same with DLL's what i do care about is that the program that i have works properly
i do think the correct answer would have been try uninstalling and then reinstalling the complete CS4web software and not just the Photoshop software.
Why because that did fix the runtime error and everything works great.
Sorry, but this is a rather useless post. Runtime errors are just generic crashes, most of the time caused by some missing DLL or damaged/ bad driver. Unless you know exactly what you did and can provide more details from the crash report, this is going nowhere. Could be anything from a graphics driver problem to more genric issues...
Thanks anyway

Flash error in dreamweaver CS4

So, I am trying to integrate about 10 or so pics in a flash
format on my site. So whenever anyone opens the site, different
pics flash in a loop. I tried doing this by going to Insert -->
Media --> SWF. And then a little flash icon pops up where I want
the image. Then I got into tag inspector (on the right column)
--> Behaviors --> preload images and using the "+" sign, add
all the images I want. But when I click the "Play" icon (in
properties at the bottom), I get the following error "Unable to
find the plugin that handles this media type. Dreamweaver looks in
both the "Configuration/Plugins" folder and the plugins folder for
each of your installed browsers".
I am not sure what this message means. I checked my adobe
flash version and its updated. Any help would be greatly
appreciated! Also, is this the only way to upload flash images or
is there any other?
Thanks!

Errors in Dreamweaver CS4 need help

Just yesterday I started getting the following error when trying to open Recordsets:
While executing onLoad in ServerBeh-ASPVbs-SimpRS.htm, the following JavaScript error(s) occured:
At line 271 of file "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS4\Configuration\Commands\ServerBeh-ASPVbs-SimpRS.js: type has no properties
What I have done so far:
1. renamed Configuration folder
2. Drilled down and found the .js file in DW3 and copied it in
3. Reinstalled DW
If anyone could shed some light on why all of a sudden this is happening I would greatly appreciate it.

I sounds like your Recordset code may be corrupted. Try deleting the Recordset and recreating it.

Editingutils.js error message dreamweaver cs4

I keep getting this the attached error message using Dreamweaver CS4, spry framework utilizing a number of spry widgets.
CollapsiblePanels
Spry Forms Widgets
I have made changes to the span id names associated with each of the form widgets.
I've reviewed this link http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/401/kb401257.html
However the files described do not contain the following lines and changes
Edit SpryTabbedPanelsDesignTime.js and make the following changes:
THIS DOES NOT EXIST IN THE FILE IN CS4
Go to line 188. Change:
eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]);
to:
try { eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]); } catch(e) { opts = null; }
Save the file.
Edit SpryCollapsiblePanelDesignTime.js and make the following changes:
THIS DOES NOT EXIST IN THE FILE IN CS4
Go to line 188. Change:
eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]);
to:
try { eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]); } catch(e) { opts = null; }
Save the file.
Launch Dreamweaver and verify that you can now load your file.
Any other solutions?

I have resolved the editingutils.js by breaking up the forms, but it is not the solution I'm really looking for.
Each of the 6 forms on seperate pages are 450 lines of code.
Form sample.
http://irexs.com/betatest001/can/listCANCommercial.cfmhttp://www.irexs.com/betatest001/
I want to be able to have multiple forms on one page, nested in spry collapsible panels.
I'm using DW CS4 and Coldfusion 8 server, forms utilize SPRY form fields (not cfforms).
In order to reslove the editingutils.js I had to break up the forms, but have considered an alternate solution.
In each panel the forms are nested via cfinculdes; structure as follows.
<div col panel>
     <div col panel content>
          <form spry fields>
               <cfincludes location form file>
               <cfincludes details form file>
          <form end>
     <dev col panel content ent>
<div col panel end>
WHAT I WANT TO ACCOMPLISH is as follows.
Sample page
http://irexs.com/betatest001/can/listCAN.cfm
Forms are to be inserted in the panel content section as described above.
ISSUES ARE:
I have limited JavaScript knowledge.
For the forms to work i require the the panels in closed state at page load: This is done.
ON FORM SUBMIT, I need the panel to stay OPEN, when client side or server side submit requires correction to the form.
What happens now is the page refreshes and the panel closes: the default state.
SOLUTION DESIRED, is to have the selected panel to stay open and the input information to remain when form is submitted.
Thanks for any help.

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library after Dreamweaver CS4 installation

Hello everyone,
I just finished installing Dreamweaver CS4 and I have some issues to have it up and running.
When I open an .html file and then try to insert an image via the right menu button I get to browse and locate the image but when I select it, I get the following error message:
If I try to insert it by using the top menu path: Insert>Image... I get to select the image but as soon as I select it I get the following error message and then my computer crashes:
Adobe support recommended me to install Windows SP 3 for Windows XP Professional and also update my Microsoft Visual C++ by installing the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistrutable Package (x86) (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=9b2da534-3e03-4391 -8a4d-074b9f2bc1bf).
I did both things and I still keep getting the same behavior... any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks in advance for your help,
HL

Adobe support encouraged me to create a new user profile in my computer and log-off/log-in as a different user to see if the issue can still be reproduced while being logged as a different user.
I figured out the way to do this with my IT department (I'm in an enterprise network) but I still experience the exact same behavior...
I have my IT guys testing if installing the application in a similar machine would give the same error... if anyone has any other ideas, I'll be more than grateful to hear them...

AMT Subsystem Error in Dreamweaver CS4

I get this error after installing CS4 Web Premium yesterday - it worked then but not now.
All other CS4 Web elements say "Licensing for this product has stopped working" and I get an Error 147:20 code
Anyone encountered this, or know a solution?
Thanks

No I didn't this is the first Adobe product installed on this machine, other than Acrobat Reader and Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX.
Currently in process of removing and re-nstalling, but won't hold my breath

Has been working fine for past 3 days.

Additional Notes:
I have had previous peril with Fireworks CS4 earlier this week crashing and had to take valuable time researching the problem. Happened to be one font out of three thousand that I have readily available for my needs. This new problem with Dreamweaver has further disappointed me and I need to use the software I purchased as soon as possible. I have taken the time to send in a bug report, as well as post this thread.
Please guide me in a safe & proper procedure to determine the cause of the crash. Thank you.

Renaming the Configuation folder and then opening Dreamweaver worked like a charm. I was ready to give up on CS4 and I had already gone back to using DW 8. Thank you for sharing- don't think I would have ever solved this without your help. That is what sharing is all about.
You're welcome :-)

Dreamweaver CS4, Microsoft Visual C ** Runtime Library, " Runtime Error"

Hi, I got a runtime error while working in Dreamweaver CS4. I searched the forum for answers and tried the only solution I could find ( changing the name of the configuration folder)... it didn't work for me, are there any other solutions? My OS is Windows Vista Business Thankyou

Thank you for your reply, I would have replied sooner but I couldn't sign in to Adobe. My issue was solved by trying another method:
I got my first runtime error when I opened a text document with Dreamweaver that I created from my desktop, at first the file extension was .css.txt, I made it a .css file and if I right clicked and "opened with" Dreamweaver I would get the runtime error.
Since then I have created a site definition and created everything within Dreamweaver and had no issue with runtime errors.
I was following a tutorial on Slicing and really wanted to carry it through but instead I resized each image and put into Dreamweaver's prebuilt template. I had to settle due to time sensitivity.
I will certainly try slicing on my own time from here on, lol
Thanks Preran!

Illustrator CS4 Runtime error

Whenever I try to start a new file or open an existing file I get the message
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime library
Runtime error
I have read dozens of comments about this issue and tried everything, I have Core Duel Quad processor XP SP-3 alle updates, 2 GB RAM, I ereased all preference files. Photoshop works fine, Dreamweaver too.
I had many years Illustrator 9, worked fine, now I want to try CS4.
Any help?
Thanks
lonerider

Runtime errors usually point to driver conflicts/ conflicts with other software. In your case possibly simply the PDF libraries already installed by Photoshop are causing issues. I recommend you simply use the CS4 Clean Utility to unregister your other installs, then try to re-install Illustrator. For other potential causes, we need more info. Graphics card? Graphics tablet? Printers? For the latter two, uninstalling them or at least disabling them may allow Illu to launch...

Adobe Media Encoder CS4 runtime error

I am wondering why I am getting a runtime error while
attempting to use Adobe Media Encoder CS4...As soon as I launch
Adobe Media Encoder CS4, it crashes I have installed and
reinstalled Flash a couple time, to see if this corrects the
problem, which it doesn't, and just last week it was working
fine...Does anybody have a ideal what is going on?

Don't know if this helps anyone else, bt the runtime errors i have been getting occur when I try to build and burn a blu-ray file. And they happen intermittently. In fact, on this project, I had burned several test blu-rays without difficulty. When I made one minor change on the penultimate version, and tried to burn again, the system crashed with a run time error. Then it crashed 9 more times over the course of the week.
Finally in frustration, I created an interim ISO file in Encore- ie in the build workstream, i selected burn an image file rather than burning a blu-ray disk. After this intermediate step completed, i then did a separate burn in encore but burned from the image file. No snags.
Not sure why but this program has trouble doing a sequence of activities. As it is, I already render and save the file before burning. Now I have another interim step to create an image file before burning.
In my next hardware change, I am going to switch to make Mac and Apple software. Enough of MS Windows and Adobe, the GM and Chrysler of the software industry. Hopefully what my friends tell me is true; that Apple stuff actually works.

Dreamweaver CS4 - Record Insertion Form js error

Hi
I'm dreamweaver cs4 and started using the Record Insertion form, I was mainly experimenting with it and just seeing what it could do.
However when I get to the wizard i have to wait a few seconds for it to connect to the database and then I get an error message that says:
While executing onLoad in ServerObject-InsRecPHP.htm, the following Javascript error(s) occured:
At line 283 of the file "Macintosh HD:Application:Adobe Dreamweaver
CS4:Configuration:Commands:ServerObject-FormCmnPHP.js":
invalid array length
I was just wondering if this was a common problem, or I've messed something up either in Dreamweaver, or in the SQL database that I'm using.
I've also noticed that its the same for Update and Delete Records Wizards aswell.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I see it's your first post. Welcome to the forum.
A good place to start looking for answers is the Dreamweaver FAQ. You'll find the answer to your question under "Crashes, installation, JavaScript, and unexplained problems".
