Hi

When i open the web author console and click 'create new page' i get a white
screen with the error:

"Error has occured. Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

We are implementing a shared development environment here. I think this
error may be due to the manual virtual directory i needed to create. The
suggested directory is '<install directory>/Microsoft Content Management
Server/IIS_CMS' which doesnt exist. However, an 'IIS_CMS' directory does
exist under the service pack and 'Server' directory. I have tried using both
of these and am still getting the same error?

Any ideas?
Many Thanks

Hi Faisal,

you need to link this to the Server\IIS_CMS directory.
Is there an exception stack trace in the error message?

Cheers,
Stefan

I have tried the Server\IIS_CMS directory but it didn't solve the error. The
error may be completely unrelated to the virtual directory. Unfortunately no
stack trace?

Stefan

I have created a new template (the existing templates were created by a co-
developer) and it seems to have fixed the error i was receiving!? i have
deleted the template but cant reproduce the error and all seems well.

Any clues?
