Can no longer upload documents.

I've started getting an object variable not set error when I upload docs to DMX. For this site we're using

5.2.02. But have not had problems before. I don't really want to upgrade right now.

This is rather urgent.

Any ideas?

I'm wondering if this was caused by setting up index server on another DNN install on the same server. This one I think is using the Lucene provider. Could there be an issue here.

I managed to upload a text file ok but can't upload .pdfs or .docs.

No, I don't think it's related to search. Rather it looks like something to do with localization. Did anything change in that respect? Note, I've not seen this error before.

Hi Peter

I restarted the server and the object ref error went away. However I found that the first PDF upload worked fine but the second one caused DMX to hang when I clicked 'finish' after the upload.

Eventually i tried switching from Lucene to Indexing server on this web site and the problem went away.

We have a server with about 6 sites on it and some of them use DMX. I'm guessing Lucene and Indexing server
are causing problems for DMX when used together on the same server?

We are planning to switch each one over to indexing service now that I have got it to run AND index PDF's.

thanks

Hi Gus,

I'm not aware of conflicts between Lucene and IS, but you have to make sure that IS can't lock files that Lucene wants to get to. IOW, don't let IS index a site that is indexed by Lucene.
