2.2 FSR - Failed to get reader for URL: null

[rwbyington]

I'm getting this error "Failed to get reader for URL: null"  while trying to deploy a website. The website has webform .xml files and pdf documents (about 2G) of data. Any ideas how I can fix this or what is breaking? Looking in the logs doesn't reveal much information. Is there any additional debugging I can do?

Thanks,
Rick

Questions:
Has your configuration ever worked or is this the first time you have tried to deploy?
What version are you using 2.2.0, 2.2.1, 2.2.2?
Are you seeing this error message in Alfresco's log, or the FSR's log file.
You should be able to turn debug logging on to get more information.
Can you run deployment in a debugger?

1- Yes the configuration worked before. It seems that when we added 'more' data it failed. That is we were able to deploy 50 .xml web forms and 100 pdf documents fine, but when we try 350 .xml files and 600 documents it fails. I'm not sure if it is breaking on the documents or the webforms, could an 'invalid' pdf cause this, could a web form .xml file with bad data cause this?

2- We are using version 2.2.0 (maybe updating will help) I'll pull down 2.2.2 and run it locally to see if that works.

3- I'm seeing the error in the web client after I click deploy. It returns within 1 second and I get the "Failed to get reader for URL: null" in red. The log files look clean, so I really don't have any context of why this is happening.

4- Run it in debug meaning turn on DEBUG in the log4j properties? I will try that.
5- I'm not sure what you mean by 'Run the deployment in a debugger?' Are you asking me to run Alfresco in an exclipse debuger, or run the FSR in a eclispe debugger, or something else?

Thanks,
Rick

Found the problem- I had upload some PDFs using the WebService API and the pdfs failed to upload but were in Alfresco with the size of 0. This appears to make the deployment fail (although there isn't much of a reason why in the logs)

Now I have a new issue which I posted below. I'm wondering where I set the time out limit or what token would be invalid…

Deployment timed out or invalid token.
