Hello,

Please, I would like you to explain to me exactly what this error is, since I do not understand why is was causing an error but new metadata was correctly applied to all the docs I choosed. And, the error was not shown to all of the docs, just in some groups of them.

If it helps, here you have the little change I made to one of the metadata groups before updating all the associated documents. Because I forgot to define it when I was thinking how to name it :cry:
Code: Select all
BEFORE
<select label="Address" name="okg:bill.x" type="simple">
AFTER
<select label="Address" name="okg:bill.address" type="simple">
Thank you.

In case of a mistake in metadata definition, the best practice should be:
1- update xml definition from administration
2- update database field values ( current value -> https://docs.openkm.com/kcenter/view/ok ... properties )
3- Rebuild lucene indexes https://docs.openkm.com/kcenter/view/ok ... dexes.html
