Trouble opening rapid weaver project

[Steffi (Steffi Muhanji)]

Hi,

I am currently using RapidWeaver6 for my website.
*I have not recently upgraded the software.
*I also checked permissions to ensure that the project wasn’t locked.
*I have tried renaming it.
*I have tried to open the file by double-clicking on it and from Rapid Weaver
I still get the error message below,

“The document “LIINES Website.rw6” could not be opened.”

The project is saved in Dropbox which views it as a folder. I am not sure how to revert to a previous version.

Does anyone have an idea on how to solve this issue?

If you have it on dropbox and it looks like a folder, you are not going to get it to open. More than likely, the file NEVER got fully synced with Dropbox. Check out my post here

Storing Rapidweaver sites on Dropbox

Realmac says you should not. They say it could corrupt your file. I have been doing this for over 4 years now, and have only had one corruption, and it was my fault, not dropbox’s. If you are going to do this, you have to be sure you follow these rules: NEVER have the file open on more than one machine at a time. NEVER allow two people to work on the same file at the same time. ALWAYS be sure your computer has synced completely with Dropbox before opening your file, EVEN if what is syncing…

about how I use Dropbox without issues.

It does not look like a folder in Dropbox. I have been able to open it in Dropbox before. The issue is when I try to revert to a previous version of the project. I am only trying to revert to previous version because it won’t open. I doubt it is because of Dropbox. I was wondering if anyone knows any other reason why I am getting the error “The document “LIINES Website.rw6” could not be opened” and how to fix it.
