FAQ 4: The resource object was not found

PROBLEM

This error shows when accessing any of the CopyMove pages.

CAUSE

The resource files sppplatform.resx and sppcopymove.resx are missing from the App_GlobalResources folder of the SharePoint Web application. CopyMove relies on a post installation timer job to copy these files from the resources folder to the App_GlobalResources folder.

RESOLUTION

Copy all resource files from the resources folder to the App_GlobalResources folder below the inetpub directory of all affected Web Applications. Repeat for every Web front-end server in the farm.

You can alternatively attempt to reactivate the farm level feature labeled CopyMove for SharePoint. This action should trigger the timer job that copies the files in place on all servers.
