duplicate filenames

[pinbrook]

Some filenames conflict. All files being sent to the web site must have unique names. Please check the list of files in Design | Additional Files.

Some of the following files must be renamed before an upload can occur. Once the files are renamed, reselect them in the Actinic.

I get this error now I have licenced an additional site within designer. Note the duplicate images are 2 different sites. Rannoch-CD was created from a snapshot of Rannoch. However the duplicate images are images in the brochure pages only. All images within the product pages also have the same name but are not being flagged as such.

I'm a bit stumped on this one. The only thing I can think of is if you have an external design file saved within the 'Rannoch' folder that you are using within the design in the 'Rannoch_CD' folder. Could this be the case?

If so, I would suggest copying the external design file manually to the 'Rannoch_CD' folder and then in Actinic, open the 'ExternalDesign' layout for editing and click the 'Edit Layout Details' button. Change the details to point to the external file in the 'Rannoch_CD' folder rather than the 'Rannoch' folder.

It's a bit of a shot in the dark, but it is worth a try.

Chris the Rannoch-CD is named after you, as it is the snapshot you gave Tracey to send to me.

It uses the inbuilt CSS as I tend to use ActinicStyleSheet and append my own css

I got this error as well when I tried exporting a snapshot from one site and importing it into another. But just as I was about to report a bug, I checked 'Design | Additional Files' and found all the erroneous files in there.

Please check for anything in 'Design | Additional Files'

Chris, before your reply I removed the Rannoch site as I don't need both.

All obviously is fine now.

But there were no entries in additional files in my now - only - copy (RannochCD).

I created my 2 sites, by exporting from Rannoch, sending the snapshot to you guys and then when it was returned I used "New site" in Designer and imported the changed site. The weird thing is the product images were ok it was the brochure images that threw the error

Hi Jo

I'm at a loss. I've tried to re-create it, but with no luck. Glad it's working now though.

Actually, I have seen this as well, it is almost as if when you import a snapshot, filenames referenced in the old one are automatically referenced in the new one - as if the design from the two becomes merged.

I don't have a reproducible scenario though - might relate to a failed or aborted snapshot import.

I am having the same problem too now that I have just upgraded to 8.0.3 from 8.0.2.

Some filenames conflict.

F:\Program Files\Actinic v8\Sites\Site1\enquiryForms\index.html
F:\Program Files\Actinic v8\Sites\Site1\news\index.html

These 2 files are not Design | Additional Files (this is empty). They are not connected with Acinic in any way as on the server "enquiryForms" & "news" are on the root, on the same level as "actalog".

These files are not in F:\Program Files\Actinic v8\Sites\Site1\ either.

My client is being patient for the moment, but his site has been suspended all weekend whilst we have done the upgarde and he needs to upload to allow trading again.

Thanks for any help!

I am having the same problem too

Sarah you problem is slightly different to the one I posted, my duplicates were being referenced across 2 sites, each site should be discrete.

Yours is same names across the same site which Actinic tends not to be happy with due to the use of sub folders.
