FrameMaker 2015 throws an error when opening files

[s_mayer]

I just Installed FrameMaker 2015 (no errors), but when I open a FM 11 file, even after updating it to FM 2015 and importing new formats and element definitions, I receive the following error message in the FM console:

maker: While reading menu customization file C:\Users\smayer.AVIDWW\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\FrameMaker\13\WorkSpaces\Structured\WYSIWYGView\menus\menus_structured_authoring.cfg,

maker: (1414) Command or menu named ChildElements has not been defined.

maker: (1415) Command or menu named SiblingElements has not been defined.

maker: (1417) Command or menu named ChildAttributes has not been defined.

maker: (1418) Command or menu named SiblingAttributes has not been defined.

maker: (1420) Command or menu named ChildElements has not been defined.

maker: (1421) Command or menu named SiblingElements has not been defined.

maker: (1423) Command or menu named ChildAttributes has not been defined.

maker: (1424) Command or menu named SiblingAttributes has not been defined.

The configuration file referenced in the message has what I'd expect in terms of the relevant menus. And the Expand/Collapse menus in fact do have the child/sibling elements/attributes options. So I'm puzzled as to why I'm getting this error message. Has anyone else seen it or have any idea how to address the issue? Thanks.

Hello Steve,

Thanks for reporting the issue. We've logged a bug for the same.

Hi Harsh,

we encountered the same issue. Any idea about the cause?

Hi Steve,

did you solve this?

Hi Wim,

No, I still get the error. I see it when I first launch FM and open an existing file or create a new one, even I'm just using one of the default templates Adobe supplies with FM 2015. It also happens intermittently with older files I open in FM. I haven't heard anything about the problem apart from Harsh's comment above. My workaround is to ignore the error message, since it doesn't seem to affect anything and the menu commands FM thinks are missing in fact are present.

This whole discussion should (a) be moved to the Structured forum & (b) has anyone performed the updates to FM2015 (there’s at least 2 of them) and tried this again?

[s_mayer]

Jeff,

I'd be glad to move the discussion, but you have to be one of the forum's hosts (I'm not) to move discussions. Maybe an appropriate moderator will do it for us.

As for updates, yes, my installation of FM 2015 is up to date (13.0.2.433) and the problem persists.

Arnis will get around to moving it sometime (grin)

Meanwhile, I’d be tempted to PM Harsh to see what the bug # logged was & where it’s at.

[Arnis Gubins]

Moved.  [I'm not an early bird these days... ]

[Jeff_Coatsworth]

LOL Arnis – with this weather, I don’t blame you.

[s_mayer]

Arnis,

Thanks for moving the discussion to the right forum.

I've taken Jeff's suggestion and pinged Harsh to see what the status of the bug is. I'll post whatever I find out from Adobe.

Has anyone been able to fix this issue? I'm seeing the same error message.

thanks.

Hello

Have you try to "save as" the FM11 in .mif and open it with FM2015 ?
