179.0. "Help with error messages, pls" by PICA::GREENBERG () Wed Apr 01 1987 11:46

Hi,
    
Could someone help me diagnose the following error messages?  I am building
a book using a profile.  The book itself seems to come out alright, but
neither the contents nor index are included when I send the whole .ln3 file
to the printer, although I have included the <contents_file> and <index_file>
tags in my profile.

179.1Not fully automatic yetCOOKIE::JOHNSTONWed Apr 01 1987 15:0425
Are you taking through each of the three steps described in the Release 
Notes?  The notes state that CONTENTS and INDEX are not yet fully
automatic.  You must process a file containing <CONTENTS_FILE> and/or 
<INDEX_FILE> as follows:


$ DOC/CONTENTS/INDEX/NODEVICE  filespec_pro  doctype  destination
                     ^^^^^^^^

$ DOC/NOTAG/NODEVICE filespec_pro_CONTENTS  doctype destination
      ^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^              ^^^^^^^^

$ DOC/NOTAG/NODEVICE filespec_pro_INDEX  doctype destination
      ^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^              ^^^^^

$ DOC/NOTAG/NOTEXT filespec_pro  doctype destination
      ^^^^^ ^^^^^^


You will see "contents generation" and "index generation" messages at 
the first step, but the .TEX files generated must be processed through
DOCUMENT, same as in BL06.

179.2What the Error Messages MeanVAXUUM::DYERAdventures in SuccessWed Apr 01 1987 15:268
Those error messages mean that your page prefix is too long.  The limit of a
 page prefix is ~6 characters.  For example, if you were trying to use the
  word "GLOSSARY" as a prefix, it's truncated to "GLOSSA."

Of course, the error message doesn't tell you this.  That's been fixed for FT
 update.  The limit on page prefixes has been upped to 8 characters and they
  will be able to use lowercase and multinational characters.

179.3DOC$INDEX?PICA::GREENBERGWed Apr 01 1987 18:339
    
    
    re: .1 
    
    Thanks for directing me there.  I also was told that there is a
    DOC$INDEX command to be used along with the three you mentioned.
    But when we try to use it, it is unrecognized.  Any hints on this?
    
    
179.4DOC$INDEXER FILE.INXUBEAUT::MANDERSONthe wind don&#039;t blow..... it suxWed Apr 01 1987 20:4513
    re .3
    
    At note 63 or 64 is a note I started on indexing problems. Pattie
    put me onto the doc$indexer (note the extra ~er). Using this I have
    been able to generate indexes. 
    
    Unfortunately I am still unable to complete the book build in batch
    as DOC$INDEXER won't (for me) run in batch.
