Behavior:
You just installed/upgraded to DocuWare version 6.10, now anytime you try to store or view a document in DocuWare you receive the following error, OBJECT REFERENCE NOT SET TO AN INSTANCE OF AN OBJECT.
Solution:
Navigate to program files(x86)\DocuWare\Web\Platform\Bin
- Make a copy of the Docuware.Platform.Web.dll.settings file to your desktop
- Open the original web.dll.settings and navigate to the UseSettingsService entry (see below)
- Change the value for UseSettingsService from False to True
- Reset IIS
