dreamweaver creates hidden folder called _mmserverscripts in root
folder of website handle communication mysql. error
message means dreamweaver can't find because have not set
your testing server category correctly in site definition.
it sounds though using remote server testing. go
site > manage sites, select site, click edit. use advanced tab
and select testing server category. use following settings:
server model: php mysql
access: ftp
ftp host: ftp details site
host directory: path root folder of site
login: username
password: password
url prefix: url that's equivalent of root folder of site
the key host directory , url prefix must map same
location. so, if site called example.com, url prefix
http://www.example.com/. host directory wherever upload home
page.
