RE: Can't create a new site

Hello,
I have a little work around for this. If you have, I hate to say it, windows on your system you can install dreamweaver on your windows system, set up your site using the site manager, then export them. Once you have exported as .ste files you might have to change the directory information in the file (don't worry its XML and pretty easy to change) then just import them into your linux dreamweaver by clicking on the edit sites thing then when the stupid window pops up press ESC, then you should see the site list window where you can import the ste files.
It worked for me BUT be very careful about the locations in the ste file and make sure you get them right, or else you will have to like reinstall dreamweaver.

Good workaround is this:
1. Click on create a site
2. Use the basic tab to create the site
3. explicitly specify the location of the local site as c:\\sitename. Please take note of the \\ for it to work.
4. Follow other instructions on the screen.
