Hello, I fell into the following problem when using ditac to create chm file. Please advise. Many thanks 3mime
*INPUT*: X:\xmldocTest\System\tools\ditac-1_2_0\bin>ditac.bat -hhc "C:\Program Files\HTML Help Workshop\hhc.exe" \\goaer12a\Group\Asmes_doc\xmldocTest\Projects\TEST\POMB2MML\output\chm\POMB2MML.chm \\goaer12a\Group\Asmes_doc \xmldocTest\Projects\TEST\POMB2MML\output\dita\POMB2MML.ditamap *OUTPUT*: ditac: ERROR: fatal error reported by the XSLT engine: Exception thrown by OutputURIResolver; SystemID: file:/X:/xmldocTest/System/tools/ditac -1_2_0/xsl/htmlhelp/htmlhelp.xsl; Line#: 46; Column#: -1 ditac: ERROR: cannot transform "\\goaer12a\Group\Asmes_doc\xmldocTest\Projects\TEST\POMB2MML\output\chm\POMB2MML__7422134142688787902_chm\POMB 2MML.ditac" to "\\goaer12a\Group\Asmes_doc\xmldocTest\Projects\TEST\POMB2MML\output\chm\POMB2MML__7422134142688787902_chm\POMB2MML.html" using file:/X:/xmldocTest/System/tools/ditac-1_2_0/xsl/htmlhelp/htmlhelp.xsl: Exception thrown by OutputURIResolver I think this error is due to the chm file provided as UNC path (see red). In fact, when I use the following: *INPUT*: X:\xmldocTest\System\tools\ditac-1_2_0\bin>ditac.bat -hhc "C:\Program Files\HTML Help Workshop\hhc.exe" X:\xmldocTest\Projects\TEST\POMB2MML\output\chm\POMB2MML.chm\\goaer12a\Group\Asmes_doc\xmldocTest\Projects\TEST\POMB2MML\output\dita\POMB2MML.ditamap ditac does not throw any error and works fine. The problem does not happen when trying to get a PDF file, because ditac correctly recognises UNC path and succeeds by defaulting to Windows directory. In fact, using the following input: *INPUT*: X:\xmldocTest\System\tools\ditac-1_2_0\bin>ditac.bat -xep "C:\Program Files\RenderX\XEP\xep.bat" \\goaer12a\Group\asmes_doc\xmldocTest\Projects\TEST\POMB2MML\output\pdf\POMB2MML.pdfX:\xmldocTest\Projects\TEST\POMB2MML\output\dita\POMB2MML.ditamap *OUTPUT*: ditac: ERROR: '\\goaer12a\Group\ASMES_DOC\xmldocTest\Projects\TEST\POMB2MML\output\pdf' ditac: ERROR: CMD.EXE was started with the above path as the current directory. ditac: ERROR: UNC paths are not supported. Defaulting to Windows directory. and the pdf file is correctly created
