Webhelp folder

[lpe65]

Hey, folks.

I'm working on a webhelp project and everything was going wonderful until I did a compile. RH clears out my Webhelp folder and recompiles without any errors. However, when I go into the folder to check that the files are there, over half are missing--the skins, some of supporting files, and specifically my default topic.

I've not changed anything on my settings and can't think of why RH is doing this. I'm sure it's user error. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the forum.

Is this the first time you have compiled? An incomplete compile is an indication that the installation of RH was not done properly.

It needs to be installed with your logon and with admin rights attached. There's a topic on my site about installing RoboHelp.

Post back if that is not it.

Hi, Peter!

No this isn't the first time I compiled. i compiled on August 3 and everthing was great. Looking back I can see that all of the files generated to the WebHelp folder. However, from that point on only about 1/2 of the files are making it.

Quickest solution is to try generating to a new folder. If that works, then delete the old one and then recreate it. After that you should be able to publish to your "original" location.

Peter,

I ran the compile again to a new folder and still no luck. However, the following message did display while I was running the compile.

Initializing compiler...
Generating WebHelp 5.50 (13.10.801)...

I have reinstalled the application, but still get the message. Any suggestions?

I don't think your login has admin rights. Please check with your IT guys.
