I'm getting an unknown function error in the Main unit of the CDCollector
demo app on this line:

       raise Exception.Create('Response Error: '+Request.StatusText);

I'm sure this is because of pathing issues. While the app on Elevate's site
works just fine, I also don't see the GlossyBlue theme in spite of copying
it to lots of places.

Part of the issue I think has to do with the fact that I installed the app
files to a local directory on our D: drive but the install may have put
stuff in the C:\Documents and Setting folders anyway.

WebBuilder is actually installed in D:\Pgms\Elevate Web Builder STD. The CD
Collector project in installed in D:\EWB\cdcollector.

For what it's worth, I dug out the webbuilder.ini file in C:\Documents and
Settings\Jerry\Local Settings\Application Data\Elevate Software\Elevate Web
Builder. Here is the beginning of that file. Some of the paths just don't
look right to me. The project path (Project Path=D:\btus112\EWB\BTTest1) in
particular is wrong in spite of saving the project to the D:\EWB\cdcollector
folder.

Try changing the line to: raise EError.Create(...);

You have to register the theme. Do this in Environment->Options->Themes.
Point to the theme file on disk and click the Register button. It should
then be available.

Changing it to EError worked and now the project does compile. I also
registered the theme as per suggestions. However, now it seems that that
very same error line is being executed when trying to deploy (F9), which
means that this block of code is generating an error:

     if Assigned(Request.Data) then begin
        with TDataSet(Request.Data) do begin
           Open;
           LoadRows(Request.ResponseContent.Text);
        end;
     end

Again, I'm guessing pathing problems.

Is there a way to set breakpoints or otherwise single-step the project?

Here's the error I'm getting: Error executing "data\Genres" (Access denied)

This happens even with the firewall off. I suspect it is because of an
invalid URL in the TempRequest assignment:

  TempRequest.URL:='data\'+DataSet.Name;

The backslash, I assume, means that this is a local file but there is no
data folder. Is the data built into the app or EWB web server? Or, do we
need a fully-qualified URL to reference an Elevate folder?

Jerry,

<< I'm getting an unknown function error in the Main unit of the CDCollector
demo app on this line: >>

Don't use the CDCollector project that is here on the support forums - it's
old and out-of-date.  Use the proper demonstration project that is in the
\examples\cdcollector subdirectory under the main installation directory.
If you already have installed EWB prior to the last couple of builds, then
you may need to register the Glossy Blue theme (also in the same
subdirectory) and define a couple of datasets first (this is now done
automatically, but only for new installs).  You can do this easily by simply
adding these lines to the webbuilder.ini file located here (make sure the
IDE is closed):

C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Elevate Software\Elevate Web Builder

Lines to add:

[DataSet_Albums]
EngineType=1
Description=Albums dataset for CDCollector sample application<#CR#><#LF#>
DataSetType=0
TableName=Albums
DefaultParams=

BaseTableName=Albums
ForceBufferFlush=0

[Theme_Glossy Blue]
Title=Glossy Blue Theme
File Name=M:\products\source\ewb1\cdcollector\GlossyBlue.wbt  << Change to
proper location of theme file !!!!!!!!

After doing this, you should be able to run the CDCollector example
application directly from the IDE.

If you have any other questions, please let me know.
