Re: RDi 9.0.1 Help Content error

You're welcome. I'll also add to the PMR that I had one of my coworkers
experiment by deleting the .eclipse folder without un-installing first.
This also fixes the Help content issue, although you have to reinstall
third party plug-ins, and remember what workspace you were previously
using.

Thanks for that tip Darren. It is helping us narrow down the cause of this
problem.

Very cool!

This all may not be necessary, but I've resolved my own issue. I
uninstalled, and deleted the following directory, which I believe was the
key. C:\Users\Darren\.eclipse and C:\User\Darren\.metadata. I'd
forgotten about this before, as I had to purge this directory for some

help

issues earlier.

Anyway, after that I reinstalled 9.0.0, and updated to 9.0.1 without
starting up RDi until the end. I can't say for sure if starting

pre-9.0.1

would have made a difference, but the .eclipse folder is not built until
RDi starts up, so I didn't want to risk it.

As I mentioned earlier, I opened a PMR on this. After support installed
9.0.1, they were able to reproduce.

9.0.1 Help Content error

Sent by:

wdsci-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx

The Dynamic Help is not functioning in my installation (when I hit F1 on

an

op code, I get a page that says 'Topic not found'), so I've been trying

to

fix it, but I've run into a strange error: When I go to
Window-Preferences-Help, I see two 'Content' listings, but when I try to
click on either of them, I get the error 'The currently displayed page
contains invalid values.' The title of the error message box says 'Could
Not Accept Changes' - but I wasn't trying to make changes, just look at

the

current settings.

Anyone else seen this error?

Thanks
