Error while activating a page

[srikanthbiradar]

Hello,

I am not able to activate a page because of the following error. I was able to fix this issue by restoring it to one of the older versions, which leads us to think that there might be some problem with the current version.

We have copied instance X(6.1) from server P to server O. We have in-place upgraded instance X on server O to 6.2. Issue occurs on the instance O and works fine on P. Is it possible that there was some data loss while moving the instance. Also, I cannot delete the page in siteadmin.

I have activated tree (of 50 pages) and could see issue for just 2 pages.

Are you able to see previous version of these 2 pages on server O?

Thanks for your response. Yes, I can see the version and if I restore the page to one of the older versions, then the problem of page activation is solved.

Thanks

Once you restore and then make a change - can you activate the modified version?

Yes, I can activate the older versions. Meanwhile, I have tried to restore it to the version that was causing issue(latest), now it works fine.

But I had to go back to older version and then come back to it. Strange !!!

I am glad that you got it working.
