Missing chunked topic in webhelp
We have a topic that is only showing up as asterisks in the webhelp TOC. The missing topic is actually a parent concept topic with a chunked child task topic. The link in the TOC is correct, but the topic was not generated and does not appear in the output.
Through troubleshooting, we tested the child no longer being chunked and the parent topic does then render, but the child still does not and gets asterisks. We can't see anything wrong with the simple content in the child, nor in the simple content in the parent. Can anyone help?
DITA-OT errors thrown:
DOTX031E (file not available) as well as DOTX027W (unable to retrieve linktext) and DOTX023W (unable to retrieve navtitle), both for both topics

Re: Missing chunked topic in webhelp
Hello,
It appears that the issue you're encountering typically occurs when there are resources located outside the main DITA map folder. This is a known limitation of the DITA-OT. To address this, we recommend performing a "Validate and Check for Completeness" action. Please ensure the "Report references to resources outside of the DITA map folder" option is checked during this process.
If any errors or warnings are reported, it is necessary to address these accordingly.
Regards,
Marius
