in my Lotus Notes agent, I temporarily created some documents using a new form (with a richtext field in the form), and in the end of the code, I have "Call TempDoc.Remove(True)", when the program execute this line of code, I got error "Notes error: No documents were deleted", then I commented out this code to let the document saved in the current database, so I manually delete those documents created by my program by click Delete key, but I got the same error "No documents were deleted", I have Manager access with delete option in the database ACL,
Does anybody know why I got that error?
By the way, if I created a new document by using the default form which is not the form used in my program above, then I can delete it.
So, the question may be: what kinds of documents created in the notes database can NOT be deleted by a id with Manager and Delete option?
The NotesDocument.Remove(true) method may be trying to do a "soft deletion", but the database may not be properly set up for soft deletes. If you don't care about soft deletes, then try the NotesDatabase.RemovePermanently(true) method instead.

I have a notes database and recently we are having an issue across random documents. Users gets error "The linked document cannot be found in the view" when they try to open a document from a view. I am not sure how to reproduce this issue.
I tried the below options to reproduce it, but no luck:
Attaching a document link to one of the Rich text field and deleting the link's target.
Attaching a file as a link and deleting the file in the target.
I am not seeing any pattern with the documents having the issue. The documents accessed few days ago, which was not accessed for more than 2 years also becomes corrupt like this.
Other details:
The Field info tab in Document properties dialog box is empty
There is no scheduled agent running overnight affecting this documents
No change was done to the database recently
We recently migrated to Notes 11.0 from 9.0
Since we have a daily backup of the database, we restore the document from one of the restored copy in which it was working fine.
A guess: did you try re-indexing the view? Shift-F9?
It could also be in the form, or even the view.
What if ...
you open the same document from a different view?
you remove some, many or all fields from the form, do you still see the error?
I think those documents have actually been deleted, and two things make me think that:
You say in a comment that rebuilding the view makes the documents disappear. I'd expect this only if the documents no longer exist.
I have in the past had LotusScript code doing view lookups which produced documents that I knew to be deleted, but the NotesDocument.IsDeleted property was False and the NotesDocument.Items property was Empty (i.e. no fields in the document). This is consistent with your saying the Field info tab is empty.
I'd check if any user action or code could delete documents. You say there are no scheduled agents, but maybe some user action could run code which deletes documents, or some users with the Delete privilege in the database ACL could be directly deleting documents using the Delete key on the keyboard.
Also check the database properties -> Info tab -> User Detail. This should show if there are recent deletions, but the record is probably limited to the last week or less.
Is it possible to access the currently deleted file of a <xp:fileDownload> control?
Im am searching for something like onDelete or beforeDelete event?
I need this, because I have to save the deleted files in a history log.
Thanks in advance
UPDATE (useful answer of a similar problem):

sorry this is all from memory, i may update the answer tomorrow with any corrections (not near my computer at the moment)
instead of thinking in terms of the download control, maybe you could think in terms on the domino document data source.
when you click the delete link of the file download control, it does not immediately delete the attachment but it marks the attachment 'to be deleted' the next time the document is saved.
this information is managed within the domino document data source and not within the control.
there is an 'attachment list' for each attachment field which keeps track of the current state of each attachment in that field. example states are 'in document' 'pending upload' 'deleted'
so maybe in a before save / after save event of the document you could check the attachment list and the state of each attachment and figure out which ones were deleted
the appropriate method to get the attachmentlist is something like
doc.getAttachmentList('yourfield')
I followed this link enabling me to setup a hotspot in a richtext field - works like charm.

Only problem is, as the user(s) usually do(es) not have deletion rights, the document created by the import stays stored in the database. In LotusScript e.g. I can create a new temporary document and work with it, and if I'm not saving it, it just disappears at the end of the function.
Is there a similar way or parameter for DXL import which allows me to just drop the document after I got my rtitem?
Alternatively, can someone point out to me if it is possible to create only the temporary richtext item in/on a document I created as tempdoc via LotusScript?
My search on the web did not get any results and my tries to reduce the linked function always resulted in the error 4518 (which is described in the help document of "DXLImporter"); if I read the help right, the DXLImporter only supports the db as valid output (thus expecting documents being created via DXL).
I don't see a way to import DXL without creating a document.
The easiest solution is to create the temporary document in users "cache.ndk". The user has definitely the right to delete documents there. So, you'd replace the line "Set db = session.CurrentDatabase" in code you linked to with
Set db = session.Getdatabase("", "cache.ndk", false)
The rest of the code would stay the same.
As an alternative, use the more classic approach running an agent on server to delete the temporary document. Create an agent which deletes the document, set property "Run on behalf of" to someone who is allowed to delete documents in database and call the agent from your script with
agent.RunOnServer(noteID)
Scenario :- I opened the same document in different browsers(users). One user modified and saved the document. another user also modifying the same document which creates saved conflicts. for this I googled and found the link and tried.

(Thanks to Mr Tommy).
I included this custom control in another custom control(Form) at the end of Cc.
I am getting currentDocument not found in before render response event. I have my data source name document which is defined for full page not for panel.
Document handle is not getting in Before render response event?
Please help to me to solve this. or is there any other way to prevent saved conflicts?
Have a look at the concurrencyMode property of the document datasource.
You can for instance set it to fail in order for the document save to stop (fail) if a save conflict occurs. If you have (or add) a message control to your xpage, a save conflict error message will then appear.
If you isn't building for XPinc you could use my Document locker project on openntf.org
Document Locker on openntf.org
It works like this, when a user opens a document a< lock is added to an application scope bean. And when the user exits the document this lock is removed. if another user tried to enter the document at the same time they will be redirected to readmode.
Also, check the section in Mastering XPages 2nd Edition about document locking. That gives thorough examples for enabling the in-built Domino document locking.
I have an embedded view in a main form (same database) with a single category of a client code that is custom generated. The view displays all other documents that have that main document's client code in a hidden field.
This works perfectly, except for one user where the embedded view is blank, and the message "category not found" is displayed. This happens for all documents viewed. Anyone else that opens the exact same main documents can see the correct list in the embedded view. The documents are definitely there.
I've pressed F9 a few times, and the "category not found" keeps coming up. I've also shutdown Notes and deleted the cache file, and restarted. There have been no changes to the database for a long time, and this started for this one user a few days ago.
I have no idea whats causing this.
Check readers/authors fields in documents that should be displayed in your embedded view. May be that user just can't see them.
Before I get too stressed, I generally try this:
Remove the database from the user's workspace
Compact the workspace (2nd tab of workspace properties)
Close Notes
Delete cache.ndk
Restart Notes
If that doesn't work, I'd check that the user can see the documents in another way (i.e. if you send a doclink to the user, can the user open it (alternatively, try opening the embedded view directly through View - Goto. Don't forget to use CTRL-SHIFT at the same time if the view is hidden)? If not, the user may have lost a role, or dropped out of a group that provides access.
¿The view is "shared" and not "shared, private at first view"? In that case, you have to delete de "private version" of the view for that user
¿The embedded view is calculated, and show one view for a group of users and a second view for another group? Maybe you're searching the problem in the wrong view
¿The single category is based on a formula or on a calculated field? In that case, the formula calculates a different value for that user
