Error creating template null - GI 3.7.1

Good day everyone,

Late one afternoon after experimenting with dynamic matrix row colors. IE (6.0.x) weirded out on me and I noticed a new error in my console.

The short version of the error is

global (ERROR) - Uncaught Exception: uncaught exception: Error creating template null: 202 Error instantiating native XSLT processor

I've put the full error in the enclosed txt file (unix format).

As it stands I can't do anything with the project in IE on my dev server any more. None of the drop down menus work and I can access right click menus either, anywhere in GI. On my Linux dev box under firefox it seems everything is normal with the exception of the errors. I've tried to backtrack the changes I had made (XML Transformer URI in matrix properties) and I can't find what is causing the error.

Anyone know where I should be looking to make this error go away?

Thanks!

Kevin

The attached error message comes from the code for Firefox. Have you been messing with you User Agent strings?

The error message is generated in the GI console on both IE (6.0.x) and Firefox 3.0.10. I doubt anyone has messed with the UA strings on that server but I'll check and see when I'm back at the office.

Oh, in your first post you said it only affected IE6 but you posted an error message that looked like it was from Firefox so I got confused.

I'm pretty much at a loss for why this error might be occurring. Have you followed the instructions for removing the restrictions that IE puts on download ZIP files and their exploded contents?

Jesse,

I guess it could be kind of confusing in that I did post the error message that I saw from GI in firefox. However, the error message in IE was only slightly different.

It looked more like

global (ERROR) - Uncaught Exception: uncaught exception: Error creating template null: 202 Error instantiating native XSLT processor: NodeEntry at

@ <--

I discovered in one of my Matrix components that I had set one of the CDF mapping attribute names to "[empty]" without using the "reset/clear" option. Once I set this back to some value, used CTRL-S to save, and reloaded I regained full functionality under IE. All of my error messages went away as well in both browsers.

I can reproduce this error by backspacing over the attribute name again.

Perhaps this is one of those features that needs to be submitted for feature tracking ? :)

Sure, we always appreciate a reproducible test case and bug report filed to JIRA.
