Issue
The customer upgraded from 6.0.1242 to 6.0.1418 and now the floating journal is not being created via Generate (Windows). A new Hip had been published after the upgrade.
Cause
The publication was published using an AFP and PDF output device.
The 2 journals are tied to the PDF output device.
During the Generate process, the customer was setting the PDF output file to "null" which caused the journals tied to that output device to not be written.

Resolution
UPDATED: November 6, 2017The solution was to tie the journals to the output device that actually is written to disk (in this case - AFP).
The journal is tied to a specific output device and therefore the journals are only being created if the output printstream for that output device is created. Logically, this would make sense to only create journals for a specific output only when that output exists.
