Hi Roberto, I have finally managed to upgrade to 1.1.1 and have deployed our project on apache2. I have an issue though that I need help with. When I try to work on my files, I keep on getting an error that says the file does not exist. I'm not sure why because all the files are there our server under media/document_storage. I even successfully downloaded one last week, but this week I can't. I don't seem to be able to edit metadata or do any ocr either. Here is the error:
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: u'/home/mayan/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mayan/media/document_storage/36f4bb4d-9ce5-4881-b60a-5ac5c74c6736' The size of the document storage has not changed either. Please help.
