Hi Gary,

That looks correct.  No, you don't have to do anything with the .dlls.  You 
only need to install the .wsp file using stsadm.  (then deploy the solution in 
central admin, activate on the team site, and configure (assuming you have site 
collection admin priveleges), etc.)  It's that simple.  :)

Before the error message when clicking "test configuration" do you see any 
other messages?  A message similar to:
Status: Connection to xcc://admin:***...@localhost:8200/ succeeded: 
ML-Version-Edition-Platform: 4.0-5-Enterprise-winnt Server: sharepoint Time: 
2009-06-29-07:00 15:36:30-07:00

Until the connection is configured, assuming the connector and  MarkLogic have 
been installed and configured properly, the test will provide a succeeded 
message, followed by the error you're seeing.  Once configured however, that 
message should not appear.

Can I ask what parameters you are putting in the configuration form for Host, 
Port, Username, Password?

Example I'm using on dev machine:

Host: localhost
Port:8200
Username:admin
Password:something

Something you may want to try is to set the log level for SharePoint Connector 
to "Debug" and see if that provides any more meaningful info.

Thanks,
Pete

Pete - items 2 and 3 I've checked.

For item 1, I placed the .xqy files in the folder - C:\Program 
Files\MarkLogic\Modules\MarkLogic\SharePoint
For my XDBC server definition, I have the root set to - 
Modules/MarkLogic/SharePoint/

The Mark Logic and Sharepoint servers are test servers that I just set up - so 
they are about as plain vanilla as you can get.

I turned on trace events in Mark Logic for the SPC requests event but nothing 
shows in the ErrorLog.txt file leading me to believe it has nothing to do with 
the Mark Logic setup.

I turned on Debug level logging in Sharepoint and see the same errors the U/I 
is giving me, mainly MLConnector.SPCModuleRequest: Object reference not set to 
an instance of an object.

Do the .dll files included with the connector package need to be placed 
anywhere?  I left them in the same folder as the .wsp file - and also tried 
placing them in the Windows\system32.

Thanks for your help,
Gary

Hi Gary,

Some configurations to double-check that if not setup properly may cause this 
error:


1)      Have you copied the .xqy files to MarkLogic and is the XDBC Server 
you've configured have its root directory set to the SharePoint directory 
containing the .xqy files?

2)      Does your password contain any special characters?  Some characters are 
not properly escaped ((^,#,@) this has been fixed and will be available in a 
future release )

3)      Are you a site collection administrator on the SharePoint site?  (Site 
Settings -> Users and Permissions -> Site Collection Administrators ) You must 
be a site collection admin to be able to configure/use the connector.

Hope this helps,
Pete

Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] Mark Logic Connector for Sharepoint - Error

I was attempting to install the Mark Logic Connector for Sharepoint.
I followed the instructions in the Administrator's Guide, but I am stuck.

In SharePoint, on the Mark Logic Connector - Administration screen, I get the 
following error when I hit the Configure or Test Connection buttons:

Version: MLConnector.SPCModuleRequest: Object reference not set to an instance 
of an object.

I also tried the mlcadm command on my Sharepoint server using the 'test' 
command and get the same error.  Similarly, in the mlconnector.log file I see 
the same error.

Does anybody know what in general could cause this??  Do the supplied .dll 
files need to be placed somewhere??

Thx,
Gary
