In the end we restarted a few servers and the problem disappeared.

Forms with attachments suddenly broken

AlexStone — Thu, 25 Jul 2013 10:37:47 GMT

Hi all,

I've a number of previously stable browser based forms that have today developed an error assoicated with attachements. Error message is as follows: Index was outside the bounds of the array. at System.Collections.ArrayList.Contains(Object item)...( this continues to list nearly 30 other 'at ...' locations).

This error is triggered when accessing a view of the form that contains an attachment. Its possible to load a form that contains an attachment without a problem but the form will error when the user switches to a view that displays an attachment (the attachment placeholder that is, not the attachment content). Non-browser forms do not have this issue.

Searching for an answer online suggests others have had this issue but no solutions are offered. . This MSDN post appears to describe this exact issue and discounts blocked document types as a cause but finds no solution. It seems the problem simply went away.

Any help would be greatly appricated. Full error below:
