Dynamically-related files could not be resolved because of an internal server error
I have an Ubuntu 16.04 LAMP server running Wordpress and vsftpd.
I am running Dreamweaver CS6 from my Windows 7 PC on the same LAN and have configured as follows:
Site
Site Name: Wordpress
Local Site Folder: C:\Users\<myuser>\document
Servers
Server Name: Wordpress
Connect using FTP
FTP Address: 192.168.1.17
Username: wordpress
Password: <password>
Testing Server
Server Model: PHP MySQL
The development and testing server are one and the same.
I am attempting to edit a Wordpress theme so I have selected the theme's index.php from the remote server and I can successfully view the code. When I click "Live View" in Dreamweaver I get the message "This page may have Dynamically-related files that can only be discovered by the server" and I'm prompted to click "Discover". When I do this a message is returned "Dynamically-related files could not be resolved because of an internal server error. Retry"
I don't understand what this error means or how to get Live View to work.

Dream Weaver == Over the top. You're correct.
Likely best you do some searching + find a file editing approach good for you. I things very old school, in one of two ways.
1) I host 100s of high speed, high traffic, client sites. When I edit files, I ssh into a machine or LXD container + use vi for file editing.
2) If I have to edit files on a system with no ssh access, I mount an FTP connection as a local disk + then use vi for file editing again.
Way old school.

Thanks. I'm going to stop fighting with Dreamweaver and take your advice to simplify things and find myself a nice HTML editor.

Dreamweaver does seem a bit over the top for what I'm trying to do if it doesn't really understand Wordpress. I suppose all I need is a decent html editor and as you say, just copy the files back and forth using FTP. A quick Google of html editors brings back a ton of them. Is there an editor you could recommend?
