Adding New Movies is OK, but export to HTML is not working

[seahawk76]

Hi,

I have used Ant Movie Catalog for months now, but recently I had to format my hard drive and start from scratch.

So, I backed up the entire BuyPin Software folder so I would keep my database, xml, and HTML templates.

On the newly formatted computer, I installed Ant Movie Catalog 3.4.2 again and copied over my files that I backed up previously.

When I open the movie database, I can see all of the movies that I added previously and I can add new movies. However, when I export to HTML file, the HTML file is not updated and neither are the images located in the 'C:\Program Files\BuyPin Software\Ant Movie Catalog' directory. This directory still shows the pictures from before, but none of the new images can be found.

Therefore, when I try to upload my new HTML file via FTP, the new movies that I added are not there, neither are the image files. It's like the database (movies.amc) is being updated, but the HTML file and images are not.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Shannon

I'm not an expert in amc but as antp asked me to monitor the forum I'll try to answer your question

Are your sure your files are not read-only? If you have backed-up amc on a cd files are probably read-only so remove the argument and try again... Or wait for antp's return

Maybe that you opened the exported html file instead of the template ?
Be sure that in the export window the html code looks like a template, i.e. with lots of $$ITEM everywhere.
