We are upgrading a Tridion 2011 SP1 setup to Web 8.1. We had everything on the filesystem (jsp pages, linking info, …). While upgrading, we are moving to the new REST-api using the client libraries and the content service. This works well, but it seems there is an issue with the Content Service when trying to store the ItemType Query on the file system.

In that case the Content Service won't start and generates an exception. When we move the Query ItemType to the database everything work. Yet, this is not an option in production. Is there a fix for this so that we can also move ItemType Query to the filesystem?

  • I think ItemType Query in File System was actually dropped in 2013, so you may have a bigger issue than this. In 2011 SP1 we deprecated metadata on the file system, and I think this was a consequence of that move. Maybe someone from the Content Delivery Team will answer here with more detail

  • I don't use Query, but aparently the content service needs this otherwise it won't start. If it's dropped, why is that type still documented (bit.ly/2d9xzMw)? Also, we have multiple 2013 clients using FS only storage.

  • Fair questions. I don't know the answers :) If you don't get any answer here, it might be worth opening a ticket with support to make sure it reaches the people who know the answer.

    Thanks Nuno, I already did, though, often Stack Exchange is faster.

Well, support was faster and there is a hotfix for this: CD_8.1.1.1957

I have yet to test this.

  • It really depends on the nature of the question. Some questions only support and R&D can answer, in which case Support will likely be faster. Good to hear there was a fix already.
