Hi,
You can consider the following points to check.
* Does the file exists really ? !
* Does the current user permission to access it?
* Does the file path is correct ?
* Does the document is indexed by the search engine(SOLR/Lucene) ?

Hi muralidharand ,
Thank you for your quick reply.

My real problem is with last point you mentioned
Does the document is indexed by the search engine(SOLR/Lucene)

I have changed my approach to satisfy need and to complete development in time.
My problem was unexpected behaviour of lucene search ,
As an alternative for i arrived at search.findNode(referenceType, reference);

As this were behaving unexpected and due to some time limits i opt for below simple technique


companyhome.childByNamePath("/sites/sitename/documentlibrary/somename/"+filename);
‍‍‍

I know this is not the best solution to search in repository i will update soon on my test results of search.findNode(referenceType, reference);
also about how lucene search behaves unexpectedly in my case

Thanks a lot again for your quick help.

Hi,
I would appreciate it somebody provide an answer to the following issue:
I need to search in a particular path using document id but unfortunately
I was only able to perform search if a document is placed under "myfile"(workspace://spacesstore) in share.
If I try searching in path workspace://spacesstore/MYDIR then fails.

Thanks
Marios
