Flash Output not Compiling After Mimic 7 Upgrade

Post by Alicia143 »

I recently upgraded to the new version of mimic and now my flash movies won't compile. I tried to delete the new version and go back to 6, and the issue continues. I have compiled using flash for many years with these same movies, and I have never seen this error before. Does anyone have any ideas about how I can get the movies to compile? I don't want to move to Silverlight or Madcap formats, and I don't understand why this stopped working now. :?

As a workaround, I added a previously compiled Movies folder into my source Content folder. I linked up the files as hyperlinks to the compiled movies .html file. This allowed me to have all my movies back and keep them in flash. I wish I didn't have to do all this work to fix something that worked previously. I hope someone at Madcap can fix this bug. :flare:

I have received this error as well. Through the MadCap support, we discovered that a version of Java that was installed on my computer caused the problem.
We un-installed the 32-bit Java. That version was 7.55.
Then we installed 7.75. The Mimic video was able to build after that.
