Dreamweaver 8 Error!

bluestreak101 · 6 Mar 2008 at 09:43

Im having some trouble with one of my computers, When I open dreamweaver 8 I get the following:

The following JavaScript error(s) occurred:

At line 56 of file "D:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 8\Configuration\Shared\Common\Scripts\dwscriptsExtData.js":
ReferenceError: dwscripts is not defined

I click ok and can use dreamweaver fine but then there a couple of other error messages that appear.

Has anyone come across this before, if so can you give some insight as to how it can be fixed.

I have tried repairing the install, re-installing, deleting that file and recreating, even looked at the code of that file to see if I could figure out whats going on. None of these work

Any help will be greatly appreciated...

Look at this http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_19105&sliceId=1#user_config . Section 14 Known JavaScript errors and solutions, the first solution.

"The following JavaScript error(s) occurred: At line 56 of file "C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 8\Configuration\Shared\Common\Scripts\dwscriptsExtData.js": ReferenceError: dwscripts is not defined."
Remove the WinFileCache-7A9586CB.dat file from the Dreamweaver user configuration folder. If that doesn't solve it, then recreate the Dreamweaver user configuration folder. These suggestions also apply if you are receiving the error message: "The following translators were not loaded due to errors."

Found that on the link you gave me.

I did see about deleting the WinFileCache-*.dat before but the post I found lead me to the wrong folder.

The file is in:

"C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\Application Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 8\Configuration"

Deleted it and the error was gone

Cheers for the link!
