Offline import not working in AEM 6.1

[Former Community Member]

Hi ,

I am using "Microsoft Word 97 - 2004 document" doc file version for uploading (Microsoft word for mac 2011 version :14.0.0). Is there any specific version recommend by AEM?

Exception :

What procedure are you using to upload this Word doc to AEM DAM? 

[Former Community Member]

I am using the OOTB offline importer tool to upload the word document . http://localhost:4502/etc/importers/offline.html

[smacdonald2008]

I am not seeing an issue: 

What happens when you try importing the asset via the DAM upload: 

http://localhost:4502/damadmin

I am able to upload the file in DAM http://localhost:4502/damadmin  .But the offline Importer is not allowing me to upload and create the page in the system. It was throwing an exception
