Error 53 (eFilerError) Object discarded

[Anonymous]

After a server crash, we are trying to recover drawings. I can see the drawing in a preview and it is a 1.3MB file so there is something there but when I recover I receive this message over and over again, Error 53 (eFilerError) Object discarded Reading handle ?? object typeid 0. Then when the drawing is recovered there is nothing there. I have tried inserting as a block and there is no bak file or sv$. Please reply with any advice?

The Preview is just a separate picture taken when the file was last
saved and is NOT an indication of the file's content or
status/accessibility. All file previews in most programs work like
that, LT is no exception.

It would appear your file is gone. Download any free trial version of
another CAD program that can read dwg files and see if it does any
better.

OR Recover a backup from your tape or archives and use that: you do
backup your files, don't you? Separately from your server backup
hopefully... .
