Hi,


May I know what do you mean by "from a lower environment to the higher environment"? Are both environments on the same version of K2, with the same CU and FPs applied?

I think this would be of great help.

 

Hi,

 

I have the same issue than you. 

Do you still have this issue ? If no, how do you fix it ?

 

Thx

Hi NagrotteGA


 


This issue was resolved by applying K2 5.3 FP 22  before and the customer was able to deploy this to QA. Please see FP 7 (https://help.k2.com/kb003230) for the fix.


 


I will suggest you update you machine to the latest FP, let me know if the issue has been resolved.

Good day  @nagrotteGA,


To answer your question precisely of "How do I know more about what the issue is because the error message seems generic?"


You should observe host server logs from your environment as they will usually point out the issue specifically but for further additional formation, the issue is mostly caused by the error of: "30003 Object reference not set to an instance of an object".
Which is a known issue whereby a View or Views still contain a reference to the missing SmartObject property.


This usually indicates that a Smart object used by the Form/View could not be found or has an issue it may have been deleted or recreated with a different GUID.
