Great blog Camper!  This discovery saved me.  The publishing page I'd been working on had all the correct permissions but was getting the same error message for most users.  I went back, checked in the relevant master page as version 1.0, and got content approval by the admin.  Now it works.

Thanks, this post saved me a lot of head banging.  I'm pretty new to SharePoint and the error was quite a red herring...

Hi

I have this same problem, but the page is checked in and published. I can create pages using the custom Page Layout in the top level site, but at lower level sites get the error : The page you selected contains a list that does not exist

I've checked the site settings, and it should inherit content types from the parent site.

Any thoughts?

Okay so the problem is not with the page layout permissions: I have two connected lists on the page layout, which work fine at the top level site, where the page layouts are created, but won't pull through to lower level sites. So literally, the list does not exist. And you can't create a page layout at a lower site level.

It would really help if top level lists could be made (optionally) available at lower levels of the site - as page layouts are...

Hope this helps someone other than myself :-)

Am I the only person who thinks it's odd to put "it may have been deleted by another user" .... ?

Gotta say thx.  Found this and knew exaclty where my problem was. For me it was not the fact that the master page was not published but rather that a custom master page was not used was not set to 'Reset all subsites to inherit this Site Master Page setting'.  Once checking I was good to go.

I have created a Custom aspx page at the Sub site level that Reads a List from the Parent site using List Item ID and displays the List Item values on the Page.

The page works fine when and Owner or Member of the Site or Subsite use it but for the Visitors (to which I have added the User NT Authenticated User) I get the above mentioned error.

Can anyone help me out with this

I have also come across this error upon creating a new, first site collection in a new web applicaiton.  I solved it after discovering that there were components missing from the SafeControls section of the web.config file for the web application.

Exellent bog,,,nice research..I must  appreciate...

Dear i make a publishing site when i am going to deploy i got the same message... i am using Content Query Control, Content Editor and Announcements list, Calendar list and document list and also RSS Viwere. PLease help me out on this....

I had the same problem when trying to open a user profile's page from a subsite but the problem was because I had a custom webpart on the profile page which was pointing to a list on the parent site, so obviously it could find it on the subsite and there goes the error.. we fixed our webpart and it works perfectly!

Hi,

I have same exact problem. I checked the master page as suggsted in the original blog, it was checked out, so checked in and approved. The problem still remains for general users. However as a site collection admin, i'm able to open all lists. I dont have connected columns either. The general users of the site, even with full control permission over the site, are unable to open any lists or documents from _layouts/viewlsts.aspx page ? Any thgts or suggestions are highly appreciated.

Steve

same problem was solved by overriding the checkout on a page and then discarding the admin checkout.  The user was then able to get onto the site.  I think someone changed the permissions of the user while the page was checked out, then the user could not get back into the page.

Hi, I am having a different problem. When trying to move a site the event log shows me an exception:

Error loading and running event receiver Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.PublishingWebEventReceiver in Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c.

So the actual moving of the site goes ok, but I have attached my own event receivers to the WebMoved event and they are not firing because of this exception.

Does anybody have an idea what it could be? I have verfied the properties for the site regarding masterpage, all page layous are approved.

Also I have two sites, both created from the same template - one is working and the other is not working. So there is probably some setting that differs. I have tried to check everything regarding permissions and activated features but i cannot seem to identify any difference.

All ideas are appreciated!

i got a solution of this... if you want to deploy your publishing site on any portal please use backup/restore process it will not give you that error.

For us I had this message and had to "check in" AND "Approved" the new Layout Page
