Error when publishing a Storyline 360 course.
Jun 22, 2022
I am trying to publish a course to LMS but continually getting the Articulate Storyline Error Report - We're sorry, something went wrong with Articulate Storyline and it might close.
Any ideas what could be causing the issue?
The course has been published to LMS (SCORM 1.2) previously, but did some updates and now won't publish.
Error report is

Hi Matthew,
Sorry to hear that you ran into issues with publishing your Storyline 360 project. I'm glad to help out!
My initial thought is that you might be referencing a file in your course that Storyline 360 is unable to access or reach, based on the error message below:
<Message>Empty path name is not legal.</Message>
Are you working locally when making changes and publishing your project file? If not, please try to move your project file somewhere on your C: drive before attempting to republish it. You can also check for any empty file paths in your triggers and everyone else that you have a directory declared.
If the issue persists:
Hope this helps!
