ApexSQL Doc, ApexSQL Doc for MySQL
Summary
This article explains what to do when the “ApexSQL Doc has waited for HTML help compiler work result for 600 seconds. Result was not produced for this time” error is encountered
Cause
The compile timeout in ApexSQL Doc is set to 10 minutes by default
Resolution
To create documentation for a large number of objects or many databases, this parameter should be increased. Set the Compile timeout option in the Application options dialog on the Home tab to a higher value
If this doesn’t help, compile the document manually:
- Open the ApexSQL Doc Intermediary folder. The default locations are:
For Windows XP C:\Documents and Settings\MyDocuments\ApexSQL\ApexSQLDoc\Intermediary
For Vista and later C:\Users\AppData\Local\ApexSQL\ApexSQLDoc<version_number>\Intermediary\ - Delete all TempXXX folders
- Document a database, and if compilation fails due to timeout, go to the intermediary folder
- Find the newest TempXXX folder
- Open the Command Prompt and go to the ApexSQL Doc installation folder
- Use the hhs.exe command
Usage: hhc
where = an HTML Help project file
Example: hhc myfile.hhp
hhc.exe C:\Users\Milena\Documents\ApexSQL\ApexSQLDoc\FjtsDELL-SQL2012.DEVOnlyapexdoc.hhp
This creates a CHM file named apexdoc.chm in the HTML files folder
