Error loading syntax file #90

Closed MariannaAtPlay closed 6 years ago

MariannaAtPlay commented 6 years ago

Hello!

I just installed a fresh version of Sublime Text 3 (windows 64 bit) and your package through Package Control.

I am getting this error message when I open a project that was previously created with Sublime Text 2 (which I still have installed on my system): image

As a result, there is no syntax highlighting at all.

Any ideas about how to fix this?

Thank you!

I assume the error is coming in your copy of ST3 and not ST2? And you are opening a project you had in ST2? If that is the case, could you try closing either closing the view with no syntax highlighting and reopening it, or selecting CFML from the language list (use the command palette and find Set Syntax: CFML)? I know that in ST3, once a view is opened, ST retains which syntax highlighting file it is using (and this persists across restarts so long as the view stays open). I am just guessing, but perhaps if that view had been opened in ST2 and was using the SublimeText/ColdFusion package, and then you opened the project in ST3 without ever closing that file, that it retained the name of the syntax file it had been using in ST2. I don't have ST2 installed currently, so I may be way off base here.

This worked! That was a simple solution I would never think of! Who could've thought that closing and opening a file would be more effective than a re-start! :)

Thank you so much, John! I felt so frustrated after spending a lot of time setting up my new ST3 environment and not getting things to function....

Looking forward to trying out your package.
