Project conversion (upgrade) RH7 to RH8 Problems

Contributor ,
Aug 09, 2010 Aug 09, 2010

Copy link to clipboard

Copied

Using RH8 / Windows XP;

Four projects, by same writer, converted to RH8 from 7.

3 of the projects had a similar issue, which I am posting about.

Using a Master Topic on all 3 projects.

After the conversion, viewing a topic in design mode the header appears empty, and very large, no text. Fills the screen.  Need to scroll down to see the topic text.

Also, the TOC was gone in two of the three projects.

I have inserted a topic HTML at the end of this posting  from two of the projects in case that helps.

One is a french translation and has a lot of XML tags regarding the language. I'm not sure where that even comes from.  The other is in English and has just the normal XML tags in the "head".

Both projects have the same issue with the huge, blank header on the Design page.  But compiled they look normal except as noted below.

In the compiled Help the topic named "PAC Config" shows no border AND no background color.  All topics are the same.

In the compiled Help the topic named "French PAC" shows no border in the Header/Banner, but does have the background color.  All topics are the same.

I'm at a loss, and not really sure what else to include.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Joe

<p>Library<span style="color: #ff0000;">•</span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Solution</span>

PAC lets you create a number of different sets of PAC display pages to

suit your needs. &#160;Each set of pages has a configuration file that

stores all the information about that set of pages – the content of each

page, the variables used, the way lists are displayed, and more. &#160;For

example, you could create customized configurations to have General, Reference,

and Children's displays within the same library, or Main, South Branch,

and North Branch display for a library system. &#160;Any number of combinations

are possible.</p>

<p>&#160;</p>

<p>Library<span style="color: #ff0000;">•</span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Solution

PAC Configuration Utility</span> contains many display pages that are

generated by the parameters set in a PAC Configuration file. &#160;You

can edit many of the display parameters through the PAC Configuration

program. &#160;If you have expertise with HTML and JavaScript, you can

also use an HTML Editor and edit the contents of the display pages to

create HTML pages that can supplement or replace the existing display

pages. &#160;The <span style="font-weight: bold;">PAC Configuration Utility</span>

program also lets you create user-defined HTML pages.</p>

Peter Grainge has a lot of advice for RH7 to 8 conversions on his site (www.grainge.org). One of the things he's always asking is if you updated your RH8 install first with the sequential patches before opening the RH7 projects - that can eliminate a lot of issues right away.

Make sure you have a copy of your Project in RH7.  Have you tried to install the service releases of 8.0.1 and 8.0.2?  That might help you with your issues.
