Question

I need to edit the path variables for a project in Aptana Studio 3 but the edit button is greyed out.
I mistakenly (unknowingly!) deleted the directories that the PARENT_LOC and WORKSPACE_LOC path variables point to. Now Apatana gives me an error when trying to autosave.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

Answer 1

Those two locations are automatically set to wherever your project’s workspace is located.

To change where the workspace is located you need to set Aptana to prompt you for a workspace location when you start it:

1. In Apatana:
   Window > Preferences > General > Startup and Shutdown > Prompt for workspace on startup: Checked
   You can type workspaces in the searchbox and hit Enter to get
   there quicker.
   
2. Restart Aptana and it will prompt you for where you want the
   workspace located.
3. Choose or create a new location for the workspace.
