Attempting to import any DITA map gives me the following error. Note, this DITA map is available to you for replication in your dita
open toolkit directory DITA-OT1.4.3\samples\taskbook.ditamap

BUILD FAILED
C:\ditaot\DITA-OT1.4.3\build.xml:59: The following error occurred while executing this line:

Does anyone have an idea of what my problem might be?

    I forgot to mention I am attempting to do this with Techncial Communications Suite II.

    RoboHelp 8.0.0.203

    File>New>Project>Blank Project>OK>Test>Finish

    File>Import>Dita Map>C:\ditaot\DITA-OT1.4.3\samples\taskbook.ditamap>Finish

    NOTE: No Conversion Settings  were selected.

    I installed Open Toolkit plug-in for FrameMaker. http://www.adobe.com/devnet/framemaker/fm9_opentoolkit.html. In doing so I set various environment variables which changed the error in RoboHelp. After setting the Classpath for saxon9-dom.jar (a setting not mentioned in the plug-in instructions) I can load DitaMaps successfully. Now however, there is an error in FrameMaker when you click DITA>Generate Output - "The DITA-OT directory is not set in Options, unable to generate output." I can't find any Options setting for this in FrameMaker.Apparently the Generate Output dialog box is being bypassed.

    Hi there

    When you import your DITA Map, be certain you are pointing the dialog below to the correct location of your toolkit.

    Thanks to Tom Aldous (Frame guru) for the help with this.

    Cheers... Rick
