Lacking Read/Write access to use a Plug In?

Post by OxUser »

I installed a plug in and it won't run correctly. Instead it gives me many "Access is denied" error messages, such as:

"[integrate] C:\Program Files\Oxygen XML Editor 14\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\xsl\dita2dynamicdita.xsl (Access is denied)"

Do I need read/write access to a directory on my pc to run it? If so, how do I get this. I am using Windows 7 at work, so not sure what access I have to folders.

I placed the plug in here:
C:\Program Files\Oxygen XML Editor 14\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\plugins

The plug in is the Jarno DITA-OT PDF plug-in made at the PDF plug-in at his generator website:
http://dita-generator-hrd.appspot.com/pdf-plugin/

Thanks

To update:

I was able to gain access/permissions by starting Oxygen by right-clicking in it and selecting "Run as Administrator".

The issue I have now is that when I run the plug in the build fails becuase one of the settings in the plug in for chapter numbering ("PDF_Num") is not a recognized transformation type.

----------------------
BUILD FAILED
C:\Program Files\Oxygen XML Editor 14\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\build.xml:39:
[DOTA001F][FATAL] "PDF_Num" is not a recognized transformation type. Supported
transformation types are docbook, eclipsecontent, eclipsehelp, epub, htmlhelp,
javahelp, le
----------------------

How can I get Oxygen to recognize "PDF_Num" as a recognized transformation type?

Thanks

I was able to get this to work by recreating the plug in and making a minor change below. In doing so I found the answers to two of my questions:

Q1. How do I enter a new Transaction Type?
A1. The Plug In Generator prompts you to enter a transaction type, and you must remember this name to enter later during the install process.

Q2. Why did the plug in not recognize the parameter Value I entered of "xxx"?
A2. The parameter Value I entered of "xxx" was SPECIFIC to the plug in that another user had generated, and only relevant to his example. When I followed his install procedures I didn't realize this value was specific to him. What you would enter instead, is the value that you entered in the generator's transtype field. (And you will enter this value in the transtype parameter when you are setting up your configuration).

Hi,

Thanks for updating the post with the solution, we are located at GMT+2 so I could not help you with this sooner.

I also read the thread you started on the DITA Users List, I will add it below if somebody reads this post and wants to find out more details:
