Customizing Publish tool troubleshooting hints

You can customize the list of troubleshooting hints displayed when a user clicks Help after a LiveContent S1000D Publish tool publish operation fails.

About this task

When launched for the first time, the LiveContent S1000D Publish tool creates a resource file named StatusHintList.xml in the \LiveContentData\publishData directory if it does not already exist. Edit this file to add, modify, or delete items for the list.

Procedure

  1. Open the StatusHintList.xml file in a text editor.
  2. To add an item, create an <item> element within the root <list> element as in the following example.
    <item>
         <title>Invalid values at the publication configuration file</title>   
         <content>Open file ../XyEnterprise/LiveContent/templates/conf/publication_ID.xml and check if there no <configitem> with empty value.</content> 
    </item>
  3. To modify an item, edit its <title> and <content> children elements as desired.
  4. Delete any unwanted <item> elements.
  5. Save and close the StatusHintList.xml file.
