Question

Stack overflow at line: 1792 or 1788 when using the search function

Hello everyone,

My name is Thibault. I am a technical communications specialist. I've been using Robohelp html for a couple of years.

I am working on the user guide of the software application developed where I work.

This is a HUGE project, more than 6500 pages.

We're two technical writers on this project. (This is an inportant detail since my colleague doesn't get the problem).

I need your help because I have been having an annoying issue over the last couple of days.

After the project is generated, I open it in the software, clicking F1.

When I want to use the search function I have this error message displayed:

"Stack overflow at line: 1792" or "Stack overflow at line: 1788"

Do you know where this could come from?

Furthermore, I noticed that this stack overflow only occurs on some words.

I mean, it occurs for the most used words in this project.

We have customers all over the world and over the last week, we've been getting a lot of feedbacks about this error message.

I hope someone will be able to help me on this one!

Thanks in advance!

Hi there

When you edit topics in your project, do you see little red sqares in the content in the RoboHelp Editor?

Cheers... Rick

Hello,

Thanks for the quick answer.

If this is what you meant, I dont see any red squares in robohelp when I edit my topics.

Cheers,

Thibault

For anyone else reading this thread, see http://forums.adobe.com/message/4784796#4784796 where there is other information about this.

Rick was asking about red squares in the source as they indicate that an output file has been imported. I think from reading the other thread that you understand that and are saying that you have no such topics. Are you sure as it would only take one? However, I would expect it to affect everyone.

You say you are both working on the project. Is that with source control? Please don't tell me your project is on a network drive.

Does this problem also occur if you generate WebHelp?

No worries about mixing the threads but can you please be careful about using the term "project" only when referring to your source files and use the term "output" for the help you generate.
