Publisher - pdf - "This file cannot be opened because it has no pages"

Hi,
I have a Publisher report which works fine as a single page when generated to pdf.
I change the data model to give me multiple pages and insert the entire report content into a repeating frame which correlates with the header data that is definitely present for all records. ceteris parabus.
I preview this in interactive mode - everything works okay.
I preview this in pdf and I get the error; - "This file cannot be opened because it has no pages"
This is on well formed XML with a very modest data set.
Anyone have a fix or a pointer for this please??
thanks,
Robert.

Known bug.

  • File cannot be opened because there are no pages - Reader 9 & X

    I have an old hydro bill in PDF format from 2000.  I can open this PDF in Adobe Reader 8 and earlier with no issues whatsoever (i.e. double-clicking the PDF in Windows Explorer).  The problem started with Adobe 9 & continues with Adobe X.  When I double-click the file, Adobe opens but tells me the "File cannot be opened because there are no pages."  More recent hydro bill PDFs can be opened with no issue.
    Googled & searched the forums but haven't found any earlier reference to this particular error though there is a vague recollection that someone complained somewhere about this or something similar with Adobe 9 some months ago but there was no solution to be found then.
    Using Windows Vista Ultimate here & have uninstalled Reader X & returned to Reader 8 pending a solution.
    Does anybody know how to fix this?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the idea.  Disappointing if true.
    Thing is... it's an old hydro bill... I'm just keeping it for posterity's sake (a bill from when I was paying for nuclear power!?!)
    Most troubling and disconcerting.
    So, who should be sued?  Adobe?  My hydro company?  ;-)   Just kidding.
    Anyway... some time gone by...
    - re-installed Adobe X
    - as per ghostscript.com, downloaded Ghostscript v9.01 & Gsview v4.9 (McAfee okayed them)
    - installed Ghostscript & Gsview
    - started Gsview
    - dragged & dropped one of the offending hydro bill PDFs from Windows Explorer into Gsview
    - from File menu picked Convert
    - for Device pdfwrite, upped Resolution from the default 600 to 720
    - via the Properties button in the Convert dialogue, adjusted CompatibiliyLevel to 1.2, clicked OK in Properties dialogue
    - clicked OK again back in the Convert dialogue
    - in the Output Filename dialogue, made the new file a "b" copy of the original filename
    - clicked Save
    The new file is a tenth the size of the old one & opens without incident in Adobe X.  Ghostscript works well... thanks.
    But... is this really the optimal solution for businesses & governments?  It's not as if the old files were on vellum and here we are like old monks, transcribing for the king.  Good grief where are we going?

  • APP-FND-01050: This flexfield cannot be opened because it has no displayed

    Hi,
    I am new to Oracle EBS R12.I created a profile and assiged "Indian HRMS Manager"
    when i try to select Respnsibilities->work structure:Grade->Description
    I got the Error
    APP-FND-01050: This flexfield cannot be opened because it has no displayed segments. Please contact your system administrator.
    Modify your flexfield definition to display one or more segments.
    This may also be caused by incorrect use of the DISPLAY= token to the flexfield user exits in the form. In that case, please contact your support representative.
    APP-FND-00730: This flexfield has an invalid value set. It may use a special value set that uses an Edit event user exit,
    and the user exit has failed. If you are using a form on a graphical user interface (GUI) you may have an invalid value set
    of a different type, possibly a table-validated value set where the table or view does not exist or
    where there is an invalid WHERE clause.
    Contact your system administrator or support representative to check and correct the value sets this flexfield uses.
    how to solve this error................

    Go to system administrator, choose define Key Flex field window. Query for the Grade KFF structure used for your business group. Check how many segments you have defined for it. Also check if at least one of them is enabled and displayed.
    This would make it clear why you are getting the error. Correct it by creating/enabling/displaying at least one segment. That's it !!

    I suspect you have created the documnet's in Pages 08 or earlier. Do you have the iWork 08 DVD so you can install it? Then update to from this link Pages 08 3.0.3  Use it for you older documents and use Pages 5 only for new documents.

  • This document cannot be opened because it is corrupted or damaged.

    Hi There
    I have recently created a pdf document in "Expert PDF 7" from "Avanquest". I have inserted certain fields which needs to be completed by the reader for example name, surname etc.
    On my desktop, using Windows 7 and Adobe Reader X it works perfectly but, when using my iPad 3 and Adobe Reader it stalls. I can enter the first field but, as soon as I move to the next field the following error appears; "This document cannot be opened because it is corrupted or damaged."
    Can someone please assist?
    Regards,
    Marinus

    Unfortunately, the file cannot be recovered. Also, it would be difficult to ascertain the reason that led to this issue. There was an issue with the previous versions of Adobe Reader that led to some Acrobat.com documents to be corrupted which is fixed in the latest version. Request you to update Adobe Reader to the latest version(11.7.0) available on the Play Store where you won't encounter the issue again.
    Thanks,

  • Error message in .docx : 'Open XML file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents. Details Unspecific error Location: 2'

    I have put a lot of work into a docx document on my Mac, but now can't open it as it gives the error message: 'the Open XML file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents. Details, Unspecific
    error, Location: 2'
    When opening the original file the message said: 'this file contains word 2007 for Windows equations' etc. but I managed to track changes fine, and saved, closed and re-opened it numerous times without problem. Some graphs seemed moved, and various formulas
    were illegible, but no other weirdness was observed.
    I have microsoft 2008 installed on my Mac OS X version 10.6.8.
    I've tried to fix it using various solutions suggested here, but am afraid am too IT illiterate to have had any luck, please help I'm new to all this!

  • With my new macbook I attempted to open an older spreadsheet and get the following error message:  "This spreadsheet cannot be opened because ti is too old.  To open it, save it with numbers '09 first"  So how does one do this when I only have ver3.1?

    With my new macbook I attempted to open an older spreadsheet and get the following error message:  "This spreadsheet cannot be opened because ti is too old.  To open it, save it with numbers '09 first"  So how does one do this when I only have ver3.1?

    Numbers 3.x can only open Numbers '09 and later.  You will need Numbers '09 to open Numbers '08 files.
    If it is a single file (or only a few) you can email me and I will open and convert then email back.  My email address is in the "Biography" of my profile.
    You may have Numbers '09 installed.  Look in the folder "/Applications/iWork '09"  if Numbers is in that folder launch it, open the file you tried to open, and save.  Then you should be able to open in Numbers 3.x

  • TS1363 I have an ipod shuffle, 7yrs old. Says I have an error and to re-install. Then it tells me, this file cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. I cannot find any newer version and don't recall downloading it anyway.

    Told to re-install itunes. When I do, it tells me "This file cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes." Therefore I can't re-install! Can't seem to find a way to get itunes back. This is a 8 yr old ipod shuffle...

    The latest version of iTunes can be downloaded here
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    As long as your computer supports it, the latest iTunes will work with all shuffle models, back the first one.
    Just one thing.  The latest iTunes hides the sidebar, which can be confusing for long-time users.  To show the sidebar, from the menu bar, under Views, select Show Sidebar.

  • Error message: The selected file cannot be linked because it has 6 audio channel(s) and the clip was

    I recently purchased/upgraded from Premiere Elements 5 to Premiere Elements 9 and I cannot open the projects in version 9 that were created with version 5. It shows it as offline. I get a message to open up a file and when I do i receive the error message: The selected file cannot be linked because it has 6 audio channel(s) and the clip was created with 2 audio channels. Can someone help me or tell what I am doing wrong?  All of my projects that were completed in version 5 cannot be opened up in version 9.
    Thank you.

    Bill,
    I ran G-Spot on one of the files and here it what I have:
    DVD "VOB" format
    MPEG-2 Program Stream << { 1 vid, 1 aud }
    Sys Bitrate: 10080 kb/s VBR
    I guess I am really confused.  The project that I am trying to open PrE 9 was completed in PrE 3 w/templates , scenes, etc. The movie was burned to a DVD.  I cannot understand why I cannot open it with a newer version of PrE.  According to G-Spot (I am assuming this is what you mean above), it is already in 2 channels.  To me this should be ok.  I put many, many hours into these videos and now it seems all for not.
    Here is what I did so far:
    I uploaded the required media files to a new project in PrE9 and let them index and conform.  I saved the project with the same name in a different location.  Do I have to do this to the project files and/or the original media files?  Confusion starts here.
    The next step is where I am confused.  I do not know if I am proceeding in the right direction from here.  There is the share tab in the upper right hand corner.  Is this what you are talking about?  I am truly lost from here.
    Thanks.

  • Here's a fix for "This item cannot be updated because it has been changed by another user or process"

    https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/System-Center-Service-fca7af29
    A few months ago on the Technet Gallery, I submitted this custom control to be used on SCSM console forms. The purpose of the control is to eliminate the "This item cannot be updated because it has been changed by another user or process" error
    message that we all have seen at least once (a day :) ).
    The details are in the gallery description (along with installation instructions for existing forms and your own custom forms).
    Here's a "short" description (nothing I ever post here is short :) ): This is a custom control that can be applied to an SCSM form like the Service Request form or Windows Computer form or your own custom form built with the authoring tool or Visual
    Studio. When you click "OK" or "Apply" on the form, this control scans the form and Service Manager's database for any changes to the object you have open. If a property that _you_ have changed on the form was _also_ changed in the CMDB
    (by a workflow or another user), this control will present a dialog box letting you know what happened. It will also let you choose which value to keep (yours, theirs, or the original value).
    Just as importantly (and important in a greater percentage of cases), if a workflow changes a "background" property (like FirstAssignedDate) while you have the form open and you click OK, the control will detect the change and allow the form submission
    to go through while keeping your changes and the FirstAssignedDate change that the workflow made. You won't get an error message or even a warning. And most importantly, you won't lose your changes.
    That's where the "optimistic" part of the control's name comes from. It applies optimistic concurrency control to SCSM forms, while also providing an anti-collision interface for you to use so you no longer lose any of your changes.
    Furthermore, this control will work on related items that are opened in memory; for example, the activities on a Service Request. So if you change an activity's title while the workflow engine sets it in progress, you won't get an error. The activity will
    be in progress and will get your new title when you click OK or Apply.
    Lastly, (and I admit this part is getting into the deep inner workings of console forms) if your form loads a sub projection at run time (to the root object) this control will detect the load and treat that sub projection as if it were apart of the original
    form all along.
    I've gotten a little feedback about this control, but I'd like to get more since it's a work in progress. So, I'm announcing it here on the forums. Please give it a try and let me know if you have any questions. I'll be happy to answer them here. Thanks,
    folks!
    Oh, and to answer the most common question right away: It's free. There is no paid version or anything like that. This is something I built for the SCSM community.

    Great job! 
    Will definitely try it out. 
    Best regards,
    Marcus
