XML errors

Hi,

I have an XML doctype running in Epic 5.1. Every time a document is loaded, the following error is displayed:


[A12256] source: couldn't open "..\..\\launch_ui.acl"
Does anyone know what this error is about as I have never used this file before.
Thanks,
Ali.

I have Arbortext Editor 5.2 and "launch_ui.acl" is not in my
...Arbortext\Editor\... path anywhere. Maybe it is in Arbortext Editor
5.1 somewhere. In any case, it looks like Editor is trying to source
this acl file. The fact that the error message says that it couldn't
open it either means that it could not find it or that the permissions
on the file were set so that Editor displayed this error. Find the
launch_ui.acl file and see if it is in the same location where Editor is
trying to source it and check the permissions on the file.

Check to see if you have an instance.acl file or a pubrc file or some
other file in your doctype folder, which attempts to source the
launch_ui.acl file.

It is odd that there would be an error when attempting to source the
file and no subsequent errors when Editor tries to run some function
within the acl file that it tried to source.

I found the file on E3 here:
C:\Program Files\Arbortext\E3\e3\samples\client\webui

Just dropping it in place is unlikely to "restore" its function. There are
probably corresponding configuration changes (both on E3 and in Epic, I'm
guessing) that would also be required ... if, in fact, it would even be
desirable. I don't believe we actually ever used this ... we did setup the
webui and a drop-box for publishing from a web page *without* Epic. But we
never connected the webui and Epic (and, frankly, didn't know it was
possible 'til reading the code below).

I agree with Ed, most likely you're going to find an Epic configuration
(whether a setting or an .acl) you want to turn off.

Here are the contents of launch_ui.acl (from a 5.1h environment that has a
dash of 5.1q but that "q" is, if memory serves, solely DCAM-related):

Thanks guys! I have done a little more research and found that the reference to the acl file was in fact through a pubrc file created way back (2004). It was done in order to allow a custom Tools > Compose using the E3 menu. However, it has fallen out of use now.

I am running version 5.1 and do not have the launch_ui.acl file in the Arbortext folder so thanks for copying in the contents.
