Hi group,

after some frustrating fights with Workbench 2 and quite unconclusive
emails with Wolfram Support I would like to ask if anybody else is
having similar problems or even any ideas how to solve them.

The problem is: Workbench completely fails to build any documemntation
file. No matter which. I tried to use the example projects from the
Wolfram web pages. I used simple test cases. I even tried an fresh and
empty project
with an empty template page for a guides page. Everything else works
fine as far as I can tell. I can call the Mathematica kernel from
Workbench, I can debug code. I can run notebooks from within Workbench
as Mathematica and so on. It's just the building of documentation that
fails. I even reinistalled Workbench AND Mathematica. Wolfram support
has no clue what the problem might be and basically gave up which I
find somewhat unsupportive...
I created a test user to make sure that no umlauts in the user name/
path are messing things up.

The building attempts produce the following messages in the cosole
window:

Any ideas?

If I had to guess...

In Workbench, double-click on the PackletInfo.m file and then on the
'Documentation' tab (at the bottom of the screen). Now, highlight
'Guide' and create a new page (say, 'MyGuide'), and then highlight
'Tutorial' and create another new page (say, 'MyTutorial'. You don't
actually have to fill these out yet.

Select the 'MyGuide' page you've just created and hit the 'Set Main'
button.

Assuming you already have a bunch of functions with basic usage
mesages defined in your package, when you expand the 'Symbols' folder,
you should see a list of these functions. If they have a red X in
front of them, then the function pages have not yet been created. One
way to create a function page is to double click on one of these and
follow the prompt. Mathematica will then open, and a new template will be
generated for the function. You can then save and close it (or edit
it, of course).

Alternatively, you can create a bunch of these templates at once. To
do so, click the 'Create Symbol Pages' button and choose the 'Select
Missing' button. Mathematica will then iteratively build them all. Pretty
slick, IMO.

Make sure you're PackletInfo.m is saved and the build process *should*
work now. :)

Hope this helps... (I'm not a Workbench expert by any means)

Hi,

for building the doc Mathematica starts a new kernel. If you have
already 2 running kernels this fails and this here

> might still be data underway

looks really like it happens to you.
So try to close one Mathematica and it should work again.

Cheers
Patrick

Thanks a lot for the answers.


I am aware that Workbench needs to start a kernel. I am not
running any. For some reason Workbench can start a kernel if
I want to debug or run a notebook but fails to do so for building
the docu.

I saw the line

go by. I had problems with the "Create HTML" checkbox under Application
Tools. I never researched further because unclicking the box gave me
what I wanted.
