Content block in use Exception when Editing Documents in Ektron

I am trying to load some Content using Ektron and am running into the following Exception:

        System.Exception: com: content block in use
              at Ektron.Cms.EkException.ThrowException(Exception ex, EventLogEntryType                 EventType)
              at Ektron.Cms.Content.EkContent.GetContentForEditing(Int64 Id)
              at Ektron.Cms.ContentAPI.GetContentForEditing(Int64 Id)
              at Ektron.Cms.API.Content.Content.GetContentForEditing(Int64 Id)
              at LoadUtilities.LoadXml(String name, Stream fileContent)

Any suggestions on this issue is helpful.

Solution

  • "Content Block in use" means someone has the content checked out and you tried to Get the content for editing.
