Print

ID: ZTN4265

This Zetadocs technical note applies to:

  • Version 5.5 of Zetadocs for Microsoft Dynamics NAV

Symptom

When archiving a large document with Zetadocs for NAV using either the delivery or capture features to SharePoint 2010 or above, the following error message is displayed:

Cause

This error message is displayed because SharePoint has a limit on the size of the data packet that it can receive in more than one go.  The data packet includes the contents of the file being uploaded, the associated metadata and additional data required for authentication with SharePoint, so the actual size of the file that can be uploaded will be lower than the SharePoint size limit.

In SharePoint 2010 the limit is 3Mb.  In SharePoint 2013 the limit has been reduced to 2Mb.

Resolution

Version 5.5.305 of Zetadocs for NAV includes an alternative method for uploading documents to SharePoint which increases the size limit to 100Mb.

Status

This fault was corrected in version 5.5.305 of Zetadocs for NAV
