RoboHelp 11 crashes when opening a topic

Hello

We have a group of 3 authors working on a project. We use the TFS 2012 as our version control system and are all on Windows 7.

This morning, one of the writers said that two of the files within the project would cause RoboHelp crashing. This has been verified by two other writers (including me) to the same files.

I tried the version of these files specific to a known date of the work of working capital, but the application still crashes.

This behavior also prevents the creation of any new products.

(Note: can anyone recommend any version control system that could work better than TFS?) It's really causing a lot of trouble for us. I literally need to spend at least 10 hours per week trying to understand the technical issues and inconsistencies between TFS and RoboHelp.)

Thanks in advance.

Interesting. I think I found the answer. It was a delicate, actually.

Here's what I did:

  1. Copied the files to.
  2. One of the deleted files of the project to work as a test.
  3. A saved.
  4. Add a new topic, named the same as the old topic.
  5. Switch to HTML view and copied the old category to the new code.
  6. Spent to design mode and CRASHED.

It is certainly something in the code.

I open the file with Notepad and discovered something strange happened with one of the variables:

ApplicationX

There was a variable tag embedded inside a variable. I removed the double so that only this question is left:

ApplicationX

I saved the file and it loaded correctly into the system. I did a search in the system for , and discovered that 45 records were affected. (It was a relief, because the help file contains more than 1,800 subjects).

Why it happened

If you're wondering where this piece of code has come, I'll have to take the blame for that. Our company just to get through a new brand image. Whoever worked on this before help file was not really using the variables. So I used the global find/replace to find the old brand name and insert the new brand name, as well as the code to make variable.

Find: ApplicationULTRA

Replace: ApplicationX

Unfortunately, it looks like whoever worked on the help file before THAT fact using variables, but the cases are so rare that I had not really met many of them. I thought that I had converted the existing variables using the pod of Variables defined by the user prior to the global search and replace, but I guess that I don't have.

So now I clean these files using Notepad ++.

Thank you for all your help. Without your help, I wouldn't have been able to find this rather delicate question.

  • Notes crashes when opening on El Capitan 10.11.2

    When I upgraded to 10.11.2, Notes on my MacPro stopped running. It crashes when opening. Any ideas on how to get it back?

    Please launch the Console application in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Step 1

    For this step, the title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select

    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

    in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

    List of newspapers seen ▹ display

    in the menu at the top of the screen bar.

    In the upper right corner of the Console window, there is a search box to filter. Enter the name of the application crashed or process. For example, if Safari has crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes).

    Each message in the journal begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages since the time of the last fall, as appropriate. Copy to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command + V.

    The journal contains a large amount of information, almost everything that is not relevant to solve a particular problem. When you post a journal excerpt, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

    Please don't dump blindly thousands of lines in the journal in this discussion.

    Please do not post screenshots of log messages - text poster.

    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

    Step 2

    In the Console window, select

    DIAGNOSIS AND diagnostic USE information reports ▹ user

    (not diagnose them and use Messages) in the list of logs on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points downwards. You will see a list of reports of incidents. The name of each report begins with the name of the process and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report on the process in question. The content of the report is displayed at right. Allows you to copy and paste to validate all of the content, text, not a screenshot.

    I know that the report is long, perhaps several hundred lines. Please report all this anyway.

    If you don't see any report, but you know, he had an accident, you have chosen diagnostic and using the list of Log Messages. INFORMATION on the USE of DIAGNOSTIC AND choose instead.

    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you change the UUID ' anonymous, ' a long string of letters, numbers and dashes in the header of the report, if it is present (it cannot be). "

    Please do not post other types of diagnostic report - they are very long and rarely useful.

    When you post the journal excerpt or the accident report, you might see an error message on the web page: "you have included content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the forum software. Thanks for posting the text on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

    If you have an account on Pastebin, please do not select private in exposure menu to paste on the page, because no one else that you will be able to see it.

    I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL and terminate the application. When the re-opening, it opens normally.

  • RoboHelp 6.0 crashes when opening projects RH X 5

    Our company has just 'upgraded' RoboHelp X 5 to 6.0. We had any other problems with this new version. Some of our X 5 projects we can open, some of them we cannot. When we try to open some of our X 5 projects, the RoboHelp application crashes. We tried to remove the PCD files, etc and nothing seems to work but the removal of the index (file perfect). But then we have no clue. Even if we create a new index from scratch, then as soon as we open it next time, it crashes again. Worse, is that I talked to technical support of Adobe and assistance to installation about 20 times in the course of the last month and a half, and they were absolutely worthless! They also keep promising to call us back by promised time and it NEVER happens. Our company ordered 10 licenses for RoboHelp 6.0 and NONE of them are working properly AND the results of our projects varies according to each user. We receive all the mistakes and errors vary between our users. This product is NOT GOOD and we would NOT recommend it to anyone. Adobe needs serious improvements to their 6.0 product AND their support teams! We will spread the word to all blogs by Adobe, that we can find because they will not help us or until they help us.

    In collaboration with the team my BUSINESS, we have solved this problem on my machine by reinstalling Microsoft Windows. However, there are 2 others in my Department who encounter the same problem and they are going to be reinstalling Windows XP as well.

    We have not found the real problem with Adobe 6 X 5 vs. Our resolution seems to be a workaround.

    I spent way too much time on this problem. I'm happy with OUR team could help.

    Still not impressed with Adobe 60 or their "customer service."

  • 38.0.1 Firefox crashes when opening gmail

    As of today, after that firefox grabbed the 38.0.1 update, it always crashes when I open gmail. It's probably on the GoogleTalkPlugin. Apart from that, firefox always crashes when trying to play any video Vimeo or SoundCloud audio. This has happened since the 37.x; I have been using firefox in paralyzed avoiding only webpages with Vimeo or SoundCloud built-in mode (even if it is a gene). With unusable gmail so, I'm dead in the water.

    Here are the two latest crash report IDs:
    BP-578d7064-E126-4413-8e9f-82d3a2150519 19/05/2015 11:08
    BP-66d56b45-c6db-4B97-a1d5-a28832150429 29/04/2015 11:24

    From firefox in safe mode causes the crash even. A few lines of log in the console are:

    (firefox:27889): CRITICISM of GStreamer *: gst_plugin_feature_get_name: assertion 'GST_IS_PLUGIN_FEATURE (feature film)' failed
    [NPAPI 27954] #! ABORT: Abandonment on channel error. : file builds/slave/rel-m-rel-l64_bld-000000000000/build/ipc/glue/MessageChannel.cpp, line 1584

    Please let me know if you need more information.

    This looks like a problem with GStreamer.
    You could test this by activating / deactivating false media.gstreamer.enabled on the topic: config page.

    Make sure you have the latest updates of GStreamer and update your version of Linux, if this version is older or is no longer supported.

  • 10 of RoboHelp to crash when generating a CHM

    I use Robohelp 10.0.1.292 on a Windows 7 64-bit with 4 GB of RAM. I have a Robohelp project with 1 969 topics where I have built three successful exits of WebHelp, but when I generate a CHM file using the same conditional tags as one of the outputs WebHelp, Robohelp constantly crashes on the same subject and produced two events of crash in my Windows event log:

    #1 event

    I restarted my PC and rebooted Robohelp, then aand a conditional tag to exclude the subject of construction and managed to successfully generate the CHM file. I disabled the conditional and tried the following strategies involving all the same two sequential Robohelp falls:

    • Delete the PCD file
    • Delete the topic of the project and recreate it
    • Remove all links to and from this topic
    • Remove the topic from the table of contents
    • Disable conditional expressions
    • Delete the sequence to browse
    • Delete the index
    • Change the path to the CHM file to one that is outside the project
    • Shorten the output path to the CHM file to not have spaces


    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you

    Alan

    That does not surprise me. What seems strange, is that say you that again, the incident occurs if you delete all the content in the topic. Certainly, which seems to indicate that something is perhaps ladle with the name of the file.

    I'd be tempted to try a slight variation on the name of the file and see if it works. Also, try a variation on the title of the topic.

    See you soon... Rick

  • Firefox will not save preferences & crashes when opening files

    Two main issues here, but they can be linked together somehow.

    First Firefox always wonder if I want to contribute to send performance data every time I open the browser. I followed all the advice in the article 'FF won't save my preferences' and vain. I have now uninstalled FF and deleted all traces (Inc. in hidden folders). Now re-installed, it does exactly the same thing and now won't save my homepage either.

    Secondarily, firefox always crashes when I try and import and export bookmarks without fail. Also often crashes when you press a button download, for example gmail attachments files or post image Facebook to file. This has happened for some time and is still, even after wiping everything...

    Try creating a new profile as a test to check whether your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile in the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

  • LabVIEW crashes when opening the project

    Hey guys,.

    I'm running into an interesting issue where LabVIEW crashes when you open a project. This is the second time I encountered this problem on the same project. To get around it the first time, I simply deleted and remade my project, but since it happened again, I need to find a way to debug it. The symptom is that LabVIEW will crash at the opening of the project (sometimes I can see the screen "loading the vi") with no indication that the accident occurred. It does not even launch the reporter of the error, the process just dies. Anyone know how I can go about debugging it?

    xkenneth86,

    What version of LabVIEW? Have you had previous versions of LabVIEW on your computer? You can attach a screenshot of the accident?
