Error - Cannot add data to "unknown document"

I have had this happen to me twice in two days.
The file which I save constantly as I'm working on, comes up with this error and I can't open the .indd file.
I don't have any network, new external drive or installed any new updates that might affect things.
What's happening??
I appreciate any help, and I am not too computer savvy...
Thanks

If you rebuilt from scratch and it's working, there's probably no need to export to IDML. This kind of thing can happen with files from previous versions of ID that you open and edit in a new version. If you have to update legacy files I recommend exporting them to IDML (or .inx if the version supports it) from the original version, then opening that for conversion, and don't overwrite the old version -- you may find you need it for backup later.

IDCS3 error message "Cannot add data to unknown document"

I am using a Mac and last week I opened an ID document from my flash drive, worked on it, saved it back to my flash drive and reopened it just to make sure it saved right. Now when I try to open it, it says "Cannot add data to unknown document". All the permissions look fine. Is it a file problem? Is there anything I can do to recover it?

That is a very dangerous workflow. NEVER work off of removable media.
Always copy to your harddrive and work there.
That said, try copying the file to your harddrive now and working on that.

Cannot add data to unknown document?

Hi there,
There are several computers working on a server and two other employees were working on the same indesign document at the same time, causing both of them to suddenly crash and then the file became corrupted. When I try and open the document I get the error message 'cannot add data to unknown document'. I still get the same message even when trying to open the file from my desktop. I am using CS5.5 and am on an imac....
I have tried to find a solution to this in the threads, but so far no luck! Have also tried to call Adobe but they were no help . Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

First off, two people shouldn't have the ability to work on the same file at the same time. That was a bug in the initial release of CS5 or CS5.5 (not sure which) but it was fixed in the first patch. If you haven't updated to 7.5.3 you need to do that to prevent future problems and take advantage of other bug fixes.
As far as your file, it doesn't sound all that hopeful. Try opening as a copy. If that doesn't work you may have to rebuild, or if more cost effective, use the Markzware recovery service: Bad InDesign or Quark File Recovery Submission Form

Cannot add data

I received the following error message when I tried to open a CS3 Indesign document that I had worked on last week. The document has some images in it and uses a lot of different script types.
i cannot add data "unknown document"
I am working on an IMAC OS10.5.6

You'll be better off asking this in the Mac forum than here in Windows, but it sounds like the file has been damaged. Try opening it as a copy.

Cannot add or update this document; rows are missing [Return - Freight ]

Hello Experts,
I am using 8.8 PL15 I have implement Approval Procedure on every Return Document.After approval when I tried to add document using Logistic user it creates following error message.
Cannot add or update this document; rows are missing [Return - Freight - Freight Code][line: 0] [Message 131-198]
There is no any additional freight on Return & Delivery.There is no freight on base document also.
When i add same document through manager then it add successfully to system.
Regards,

hi,
There may be two reason for this...
1. Freight accounts are not mapped . Doesn't matter you are using or not these in document .
2. Check items are not in negative ?

Hi,

Cannot initialize application data.
Error while detecting start profile for instance with ID _s.
Looks like the problem is above 1
Do the following. This should resolve the issues.
1. If your dialog instance are also having the Java stack then do one thing move your profile folder to some other name and create a new profile folder with the name "profile".
Copy only the central instance profiles Default, Instance and start profile.
Then give a try.
2. If you do not have the java instance in Dialog instance still do the same thing what I have described. move the current profile folder and create the new folder with the name "profile" and copy the profiles Default, Instance and start profile.
Chances are the JSPM is reading some other profile while starting the JSPM.

Lori,
How did you identify the PDF/A option? I am just curious for my future reference. I could not find it.

The fonts are not embedded and that may also be something to address. A lot of these issues may be related to the 3rd party product used to create the PDF.

Network Error: Cannot Send Data (1042012) in Hyperion Planning

I am using Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.1
I'm getting this error when i'm trying to refresh my Planning database.
Com.hyperion.planning.olap.EssbaseException: Network error [%s]: Cannot Send Data (1042012)
Any suggestions?

First make sure your essbase is up and running. If it is then:
Increase the values for NETDELAY and NETRETRYCOUNT.
Check the index cache size, data cache size, and data block size to make sure that they are within the recommended ranges.
How to do it and how much to set, you will get this information in Essbase database administrator's guide:

This is a very common problem on 32-bit Windows. A TimesTen datastore is a single region of 'shared memory' allocated as a shared mapping from the paging file. In 'direct mode', when the application process(in your case either ttIsql or the JVM) 'connects' to the datastore the datastore memory region is mapped into the process address space. In order for this to happen it is necessary for there to be a free region in the process adddress space that is at least the size of the datastore. This region must be contiguous (i.e. a single region). Unfortunately, the process memory map in 32-bit Windows is typically highly fragmented and the more DLLs that a process uses the worse this is. Also, JVMs typically use a lot of memory, depending on configuration.
Your options to solve this are really limited to:
1. Significantly reduce the memory used by the JVM (may not be possible).
2. Use a local client/server connection from Java instead of a direct mode connection. To minismise the performance overhead make sure you use the optimised ShmIpc connectivity rather than TCP/IP. Even with this there is likely to be a >50% reduction in performance compared to direct mode.
3. Switch to 64-bit Windows, 64-bit TimesTen and 64-bit Java. Even without adding any extra memory to your machine thsi will very likely fix the problem.
Option (3) is by far the best one.

Chris

Cannot add data to existing table

Hello All,
I have a very trivial issue. I have an existing test table in SQL and I use DBVisualizer client to connect to the server.
I have only six records in the table that I am testing. I have a field called "SITE". Within this field I have the following data:
Site:
NYC
LA
BOS
I am trying to import a csv file with 6 row of records, where I have records in there where 'site' = "BOS".
But when I try to import, I get the following error:
"Violation of Unique Key constraint 'ix1_test'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.test'."
When I try to add the records manually, SQL allows me to add all data into the row, except when I try to add "BOS" into the site field. Then the error happens.
What I do not understand is, I imported a previous csv with nine (9) records with multiple rows of records with "BOS" in the site field and had no issues.
Why is this occurring now?
Any help would be great!
Thanks everyone!

Thanks for the help Dan. But it seems like I need the SQL admin to make some changes to the table. What should I tell the SQL Admin to do on my test table?
Or since this is a test table, and I believe I have full access to it, is there anything I can run not to make those fields part of a unique constraint?
I can't really make a recommendation without knowing more about the data. I see that this is a test table, but is the intent to model something in the real world? In the latter case, you might want more than one table (e.g. rooms, devices,
and device types). That would allow you to keep an inventory of computer devices and their locations with any number of devices per room.
If your intent is to just play around inserting and selecting data without regard to data integrity, you can drop the constraint with the command below, assuming you have permissions to do so.
ALTER TABLE dbo.test DROP CONSTRAINT idx1_test;
I do have one minor recommendation for your admin about the constraint naming, though. Although primary key and unique constraints are implemented as a unique index, I suggest a naming convention other than one that suggests an index. This will
help avoid confusion with indexes that are used to improve performance rather than ensure data integrity. For example, you could name this unique constraint something like UQ_test_1 rather than ix1_test.
