Hi, If I turn on the option for 'Check for duplicate topic IDs within the DITA map context' in Oxygen XML Author, I will see many results. However, this isn't a concern for me (AFAIK). When I do an external transform from DOS I see these results being output in the output being sent to the console. ...

Hi Radu, Thanks for your feedback. About 5 minutes was the standard transformation time up until a few weeks ago. I know that the file count is growing but the rate of slow-down of the transformation doesn't correlate. I do use the same conrefs a lot throughout the files (for system names used regul...

Hi, I am transforming my DITA project which contains 3122 DITA files within Oxygen XML Author using the WebHelp transformation engine. As my file count has increased the time to transform seems to be getting much longer. The last transform I ran took 39 minutes which seems excessively long. The buil...

Hi, I am getting ready to share the documentation generated using Oxygen WebHelp with a client. This content is highly sensitive and needs to be shared using some form of access control. We are toying with the following idea in order to simplify the access control: - Store the generated webhelp cont...

Hi Bogdan,
It appears the problem was a warning that I ignored from validation which was telling me that that a link to a local file couldn't be resolved. I don't understand why this resulted in the problem that it did...but removing that broken link removed the problem.

Hello, I am helping a colleague configure her machine with Oxygen XML Author in order to transform a pre-existing map using the WebHelp plugin. Under Configure Transformation Scenario she has created a copy of the DITA Map WebHelp Responsive scenario and the settings on the Output tab are as follows...

Sorry Radu, every time I pose a question I am finding the answer. I see the options for dita.bat by running dita.bat with no args. So now I am running dita.bat -i C:\DevBranches\SystemDocumentation\development\AGS_DocumentationIt16_3\supermap_AGS.ditamap -f webhelp-responsive -filter C:\DevBranches\...

Ok, I had changed my Java install to another but after resetting to jdk1.7.0 my Java memory issues have resolved. I think it is because the newer version jdk1.8.0 was installed in a different folder location that is security restricted...I think. Anyway it is building now thankfully. I would now lik...

Hi Radu,
I am following the information at http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/1 ... lugin.html.

Thanks Radu, I am trying to transform using the new webhelp-responsive output outside of Oxygen using Dita-OT 2.2.2 and Oxygen 18 but keep running in to Java memory issues Error: The following error occurred while executing this line: C:\DITA\dita-ot-2.2.2\plugins\org.dita.base\build_preprocess.xml:...

Hi, Having previously been transforming my DITA using Oxygen 17.1 and DITA-OT 1.8.5 I have pulled down Oxygen 18 and DITA-OT 2.2.2. I see that DITA-OT 2.2.2 does not contain a tools folder with ANT like DITA-OT 1.8.5. Does this mean I need to download and configure ANT separately? Any advice appreci...

Thanks Bogdan,
I did as you advised and it all seems to be generating fine now.
I also see that this new version gives deeper breadcrumbs which is great

Hi Bogdan,

Hi,
I am building using an external instance of Oxygen WebHelp version 17.1 with DITA-OT 1.8.5.

However opening a link in a new tab operates fine when I build inside Oxygen XML Author 17.1, build 2015111718 using DITA-OT 1.8.*
Any advice appreciated,

Hello, I have generated Oxygen WebHelp from DITA content and am unsure why I cannot successfully open cross reference links in a new tab on the browser. My topic URL is as follows http://db.secure.dev.aspencolo.net:8002/#dita_files/AGSSystems/AspeniProperties/PIFS/c_PIFS_post_it_16.2.html#c_PIFS_pos...

After making your suggested change (setting clean.output setting value to YES) I am still getting the excluded topics in my Search results...but not in the Index.
Regards,
Ann

Thank you for your advice Bogdan.
That removes any of the excluded topics from the index. Is there any way to remove them from webhelp Search results also?
Thanks,
Ann

Hello, I am using the audience attribute with various topicsrefs along with 2 ditaval files to generate different instances of webhelp output from my DITA content. This works fine but the excluded topics can still be navigated to via the Search and Index results. Is there any way to completely remov...

Thanks Radu,
Updating dita.bat to run build.xml with a higher memory setting for Java did the trick.
Regards,
Ann

Hi Radu, Could you tell me how you increased the memory in the dita.bat? We use a customised version of the build.bat that came with DITA-OT 1.8.5. One of the parameters at the bottom of this file is "-DbaseJVMArgLine=-Xmx1024m" . Are you using to build the same DITA OT 2.x version which i...

Hi, I am creating DITA topics in Oxygen Author, checking in to a Toirtoise SVN branch and building on a TeamCity Server. All has been fine for a few months now until Monday I got a build error saying "failed due to - Out of memory: GC overhead limit exceeded ". I increased the parameter in...

Hi, I have a DITA project in Oxygen XML Author based on DITA 1.8. Because of issues I am having with reusing content I would like to switch the project over to use DITA 2.x.

Hi,
Is this the related problem

Hi Radu, Thanks for your reply. I have tried to use the copy-to attribute in order to create a second version of the referenced topic as follows - <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE map PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DITA Map//EN" "map.dtd"> <map> <title>...

Hi, I have a submap that is re-used in 2 locations within my source map. I am building WebHelp output. When I navigate to the first topic within this submap, I am not seeing any breadcrumbs for it. if I remove the second reference to this submap, the breadcrumbs generate fine. I understand that this...

Hi Radu,
No it doesn't happen when building XHTML but then the problem isn't in the TOC when building to WebHelp...only in the content window.
I have emailed you a screenshot of the output from the webhelp.

Just to add, if I add 2 references to the map (VendorRegistration.ditamap) then I end up seeing the topic content links displayed 3 times.

Ann

Hi Radu, Unfortunately this is happening in my large, complex production map and I cannot seem to recreate it in a smaller demo map :( I will try to describe it again here. I have many maps at many levels of depth (0 to 3) in my project. I created a child map at level 3 called VendorRegistration.dit...

Hello, I am using Oxygen XML Author with the WebHelp transformation engine. I have a dita structure with a single root ditamap and many child maps and topics. I have added a reference to one of my child maps within another map but it is displaying duplicate content for the referenced map topics afte...

Thanks Radu, I have to say I preferred the old way where you entered keywords and the results were organized so you saw the results that contained all of the search words and then results that contained some of the search words. :( Can you advise how I stick with that search functionality?
