A strange 'debug' message, while using FrameMaker 10

2013-05-14 Thread Simon BUCH
Does anyone on the list ever receive strange error messages from FrameMaker? I was in the middle of importing PDF files to layout in a structured FrameMaker document into FrameMaker 10.0.2.419 [or more accurately, 10.0.3.419] and I happened to receive the attached error message Debug

I don't think this will work because Rob already has an H: drive, which is where his FM files are. You can't assign two drives (or two partitions) to the same letter. I think his only option is moving the directories to the drive letter that FrameMaker is expecting to use. But I'm not sure
