I am using server advanced and I am getting a variety of erratic errors. Some do not make sense. For example on a search page I get the following error in Firefox but not in IE:

An unexpected error has occurred

File:

Line:

Column:

Here is an error that appears sometimes but not others in Firefox or IE:

The resource http://XXX.EDU&-find could not be loaded because the content-type was invalid

(MCS-605)

File: start.xsl

Line: 85

Column: 300

Line 85 uses the document() function.

I thought the problem was occuring because I was on a dual processor server but now I have a new machine with 1 processor. What could be happening?

Thanks,

Moses

The resource that's listed in your error doesn't seem like a valid URL for getting data from FMSA...

I realize that. It's part of the error. Sometimes that page works properly and sometimes it doesn't. It's completely random, not dependent on circumstances.

I have an update on this issue. I restarted the web publishing engine and now the pages are working normally. However, I am not convinced the problem is fixed for good, and I am running a critical application. Any advice would be highly appreciated.

hard to say without a full picture, but I would focus on the XSLTs. In my experience FMSA itself, especially on Windows (2003) is very stable. since the URLs that the XSLTs produce don't seem correct it would indicate a problem within that stylesheet.

I agree! sometimes it is a missing HTML end tag. Remember that the XSLT is XML and must be valid XML.

First off, thanks for your replies, but how can this be the XSLT? I'll admit that my code is convoluted, but when the problem comes and goes mysteriously, and then disappears completely when the publishing engine is restarted, how can you blame the code? It's got to be the server, right?

Do you use FMSA 7 or 8?

FMSA 7 has a well-known problem with document().
