No story_html5.html page

May 13, 2020

Hi everyone,

After publishing to my LMS, I keep noticing that the zipfile Articulate Storyline is producing doesn't contain the story_html5.html web page file. Everything looks the same as other files I've published so not sure what's causing this? 

Has anyone seen this happen before?

Hello Daphnee,

Thanks for reaching out! We simplified the published output in Storyline 360 builds 3.35.20995.0 and later. When you publish HTML5-only or Flash-only courses, Storyline no longer generates these files in your published output:

• index_lms_flash.html
• index_lms_html5.html
• story_flash.html
• story_html5.html

You'll only see the files above when you publish courses with both HTML5 and Flash formats.

Hi Daphnee,

Is that error message coming from your LMS when accessing your project after publishing/uploading or when uploading the content?

Do you experience a similar issue in another LMS environment, such as SCORM Cloud? If you need some help testing, I can help with that.

With your permission, I'd like to take a look at your project file to investigate what's happening. You can share it publicly here, or send it to me privately by uploading it here. I'll delete it when I'm done troubleshooting.

Yes that message is coming from my LMS. When I compared the unzipped files from pre and post update the only thing that seems to be missing is the story_html5.html page. So I'm thinking that's why D2L is no longer showing the articulate player. Everything was fine until I completed the update. D2L is the only LMS I'm using.

I've uploaded the file privately. Thanks for your help Leslie!
