Oh, yeah, I forgot about that one. Phil suggested that essential change. Now why a change to an ORACLE library path would make a difference to a Macromedia HTML editor (or graphics program), I haven't a clue. But it does.

At the Witango training, Phil suggested (for those of you who do not have invisible files/folder made visible, that you create an environment.plist file inside a ~/MacOSX directory. Then make a unix alias of it like so...

sudo ln - s ~/MacOSX ~/.MacOSX
provide your admin password when asked, ignore the complaint about the "."


Then when you need to edit environment.plist, you just need to edit the "visible" copy

Witango-Talk is awesome because of all of you, especially Dale ( who has helped me on more than one occasion - smiles ) . . .

Dale, I finally got things going, the trick was I did not notice the "2 letters" which you had deleted from the original environments.plist file where it's " LD_LIBRARY_PATH " instead of the original " DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH " . . . that did the trick and all is well again . . .

Also I noticed in past documentation that it asks you first to create a ~/.MacOSX directory but then tells you to save the file in the ~/.MacOS directory . . . lookout for such "boo boos" . . .

God Bless All and thank you to all who helped,

Dale, did exactly as you said and swapped out the file in the .MacOSX
directory, I'm afraid that dreamweaver still doesn't open up and it "hangs
up" the whole machine while trying to open the program.


Thanks in advance.

Heh heh, yes, I do! This drove me (and the highest level tech guys at
Macromedia) crazy - Phil helped us figure this out... Please note that
some (but not all) of my Java based programs were also failing to work
until I did this fix.


You need to change your environment.plist file (sample one attached,
change things like <username> and any addresses that are different from
what you have). You will notice it is SHORTER than the old one. Do NOT
put anything else back in...


AND put all your JDBC drivers here

/Library/Java/Extensions

Log out and back in again or restart.

You should be in business, with BOTH Witango and Macromedia working...

To anyone who has experienced this or may have a thought.

We recently installed Witango Studio 5.5 on our development platforms.
After doing so, our Dreamweaver 2004 Professional now no longer will
open up . . . does anyone know what may have happened?


Best,
Stephen
