Dreamweaver Error on Load – MMdocumenttypes.xml wont open/missing

Asked By wankaa 10 points N/A Posted on - 01/21/2012

Hi,

I just purchased and installed Dreamweaver cs5.5 student and teacher edition for a PC.

When I open the program, I receive an error message:

Dreamweaver

"No document types have been found in the Configuration/DocumentTypes/ folder. 

The MMdocumenttypes.xml file may be missing or corrupt. The application will now exit"

I have uninstalled/reinstalled the program, which did not change the problem.

How can I get Dreamweaver running properly?

The MMdocumenttypes.xml is located in the C:Program Files (x86)AdobeAdobe Dreamweaver CS5.5configurationDocumentTypes Folder, so it is not missing, and shouldn't be corrupt as I just installed the program.

Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.5 system requirements:

Windows

• Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon 64 processor
• Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Service Pack 3, Windows Vista Home Premium/Business/Ultimate/Enterprise Service Pack 1, Windows 7
• 512 MB RAM
• 1 GB free hard disk space
• 1280 x 800 screen resolution
• 16-bit video card
• DVD optical drive

Mac OS

• Multi-core Intel processor
• Mac OS X 10.5.8 or 10.6
• 512 MB RAM
• 1.8 GB free hard disk space
• 1280 x 800 screen resolution
• 16-bit video card
• DVD optical drive

The required hardware specifications for Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.5 are listed above. Check your computer’s hardware if it is compatible to run with this application or you might need to upgrade something in order to run it.

If you think your computer is pretty much compatible with it, you might need to check your hard drive for any possible errors that it might contain. This might be causing this error in the application.

Use a disk utility application in checking your computer. If you don’t have one installed on your computer, just use Windows’ own disk check tool like what is described below:

1. Right-click drive C and then select Properties.
2. Click Tools tab.
3. Click Check Now.
4. Check Automatically fix file system errors then click Start.

I can't believe I didn't try this earlier…

All I had to do was rename the file to have .xml at the end.

When Dreamweaver is installed, the file is already a .xml file, but for some reason dreamweaver still crashed.

You have to add the .xml.
