Can't add printer: "request-value-too-long"
When I try to add a printer that appears in Print Browser (HP Laserjet 6MP) to the Printer List, I get the error message shown in subject line.
I've installed the most recent HP driver (before realizing it may not have been necessary since the driver's included in the Mac OS). Note: this printer DID work prior to a system reinstall, using earlier HP utility that worked in the Classic environment.
I deleted the earlier HP ppd's and driver, tho not the most current HP driver and ppds.
I repaired permissions.
I also "Reset Printing System" in the Printer Setup Utility, to no avail. Still get error message.
Printer works (test page). Computer DOES communicate with printer when I try to add it (Apple Talk; LED's light up briefly). But then the infernal message appears.
I have spent hours trying to scope this out. Any ideas?
Thanks.

HI Bruce,
The Mac connects to the printer via the Ethernet bridge (Asante Talk). Weird thing is that is worked fine prior to updating the driver. I would like to restore this, but other comments are suggesting that it's going to remain problematic.
So another respondent has suggested going with the HP JetDirect, a print server. The virtue there (assuming I get it to work) is that I can get my PC laptop to feed the same printer, connected to the network via a wireless router.
This is new to me so I expect it may be tricky to make it all work.
Thanks for you help. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome. Happy New Year.

Error: "client-error-request-value-too-long" when trying to add printer
After installing the 10.4.9 Combo update, my HP 1350 All-in-One printer was not recognized. I reinstalled the driver, but now I can't add the printer. I get the error message "client-error-request-value-too-long" when trying to add the printer. Has anyone else experienced a similar problem.
Thanks in advanceWell, I tried all of that and I'm still getting the error message. I've also repaired disk permissions and run Disk Warrior. When I repaired disk permissions, many HP printer items showed up in the list.

USB Printing - client-error-request-value-too-long
A little while back, my iSight suddenly stopped working and so I did a full format and reinstall to 'fix' the problem. The problem wasn't 'fixed' through this action. Instead, I had to disconnect power and let the computer sit there for a bit and think about what it had done (naughty iMac). Anyway... Another USB-related problem just popped up - this time with my printer.
The printer is a Canon IP4000 and I just installed the latest drivers to try to fix this error. The first error was something about not being able to write to the device. I thought that was stupid and would probably be fixed by deleting the printer and then reinstalling it. I have so far 'uninstalled' the printer (more or less just removed it from the printers list in the printer utility) and now I can't re-add it to the list to install it. The error reads as follows:
An error occurred while trying to add the selected printer.

I have tried Google but I just don't have the time to sort through all kinds of explainations on how CUPS works on Linux (apparently, this error is related to CUPS in some way). I also tried searching the forum for the error message but found nothing. So here I am again asking for some help from those who might have seen this problem before.
This is on a fresh install and I have tried it on newly created users to no avail.
Thanks for any help! -ThomasI've recently had this error which came up because the spool folder was missing. In the terminal:
sudo mkdir /private/var/spool
sudo mkdir /private/var/spool/cups
puts the proper folders in their place. Repair permissions afterwards.
Through the cups web interface, the error is "Request entity too large"
Panther has the same folders, but a different error comes up.
The above cups folder has different permissions than the default. Probably the same for Tiger and Panther but just to be safe, repair permissions. -
Solved printer installation problem – "error-user-request-value-too-long"
A discussion in July 2006 left the problem of printer installation unsolved. My contacts with Apple Support have also led to frustration for everyone.
Whenever I have tried to install any printer I end up with the error message:
"error-user-request-value-too-long".
Luckily I discovered the shareware program "Printer set up repair" on Versiontracker. It worked wonders in 5 minutes. Now everything is fully functioning. It also provides an extremely useful log-file telling you which (often hidden) files that are missing or damaged.

Phew!Well, I tried all of that and I'm still getting the error message. I've also repaired disk permissions and run Disk Warrior. When I repaired disk permissions, many HP printer items showed up in the list.

Client-error-request-value-too-long
What is this error???? I am trying to add an Epson 1280 printer and I get this error. I have the most current driver and not sure why this isn't working.
My flatmate had this "client-error-request-value-too-long" problem with her (powerpc) powerbook. Nearly everything I tried didn't work:
1) Reinstalling drivers
2) Permissions repair
3) Resetting print system using Fixamac's Printer Setup Repair Utility
4) Updating from 10.4.10 to 10.4.11
5) Using the command line to try and recreate the directory: /var/spool/cups/tmp (which told me it already existed)
6) Using Transmit (with show invisible files turned on) to browse to /var/spool/cups/ and try and recreate the tmp folder
On the last point I couldn't change anything about the /var/spool/cups/ directory because the permissions were corrupted in some way. It keep telling me tmp already existed but I couldn't see it.
In the end what did work was enabling and logging in as root, browsing to /var/spool/ using Transmit and deleting the cups folder and then recreating. It took a few tries to delete too, but in the end I managed to remove it.
Of course I wouldn't actually recommend this. I'm no Unix geek so god knows what I might have broken in the process, so I'm going to reinstall her system with the Archive and Install options when I get a chance, which is what I'd recommend doing in the first place to anyone having this problem. -
Large XML Publisher reports fail with client-error-request-value-too-long
We are running BI Publisher 5.6.3 with Oracle Applications 11.5.10.2 (ATG.H RUP 5), and are having frequent failures with client-error-request-value-too-long messages on large PDF reports that cause the entire report to not print.
The exact error message is as follows:

Cause: AFPPRN received a return code of failure from the OSD routine FDUPRN. Program exited with status 1.
Action: Review your concurrent request log file for more detailed information.
I have Google'd client-error-request-value-too-long, and found it is a common CUPS issue on Linux. The popular solutions (having /var/spool/cups and /var/spool/cups/tmp) are already in place. Also, the temp files are nowhere near 2 GB (44MB).
Has anyone had this issue with BI Publisher on Linux?Thanks for the link. It looks like the sysadmins have throttled cups to low to allow large bitmapped print jobs:
grep MaxRequestSize cupsd.conf
# MaxRequestSize: controls the maximum size of HTTP requests and print files.
MaxRequestSize 10M
I am trying to get a more reasonable size limit. -

Srikanth EHi,
if there is any empty tag coming from source then target structure tag will not be created and because of which ur payload structure and FCC configuration is not matching.
To use map with default between source and target strcture so in case source tag dont have value target structure will be created because of mapwithdegfault fuction and ur FCC will not fail.
Open SXMB_MONI output payload and compare the structre with Data type u will se for no source value target tag is not created at all and FCC is failed.

FRM-40831 : Truncation occured: value too long for filed MAST_EMP_NAME
Hi
I'm using Forms 5 and getting following error.
FRM-40831 : Truncation occured: value too long for filed MAST_EMP_NAME.
When i checked in the column Mast_emp_name, all the values are with in the limit.
Table contains some 9 lacs record.
Please help me. this is very urgentcheck the maximum length - property of all those 5 columns in your form. They have to be as long as in the database. Except number. They have to be 1 char longer than in the db.
Forms-Online-Help says:
This property can potentially limit the amount of data that an item is allowed to contain internally (in the Forms server) when it's in native format. It can also potentially limit the number of character (or bytes) displayed or entered by the end user. That is, it can specify a data limit and/or a user interface (UI) limit. The exact effect depends upon several factors, including the item's Data type, Data Length Semantics, and Format Mask properties. For a character item (datatypes CHAR, ALPHA, LONG), the Maximum Length property specifies a data limit. The property value specifies either the maximum number of bytes or else the maximum number of characters, depending upon the value of the Data Length Semantics property. Within a group of character mirror items, the Maximum Length property is always taken from the master mirror item. A compiler (generator) warning is issued if a non-zero non-default value is specified in a subordinate mirror item. If a character item has no format mask (the Format Mask property is null), then the Maximum Length property (taken from the master mirror item) also specifies a UI limit. When the Forms server is using the UTF8 character set , this UI limit has the same semantics (byte versus character) as the data limit. When the Forms server is using a multi-byte character set other than UTF8, and the Data Length Semantics property specifies byte semantics, Forms cannot prevent the end user from typing in too many bytes. Instead, it uses character semantics for the UI limit. In such a case, the end user is allowed to type in too many bytes. When the end user attempts to navigate out of the current validation unit, one of two things will happen. If the application property FLAG_USER_VALUE_TOO_LONG is set, an error will be flagged and the excess characters on the right will be selected. If this application property is not set, the excess characters will be quietly truncated, and the navigation will succeed. If a character item has a format mask, then the item's UI limit is derived from the format mask. This limit is always a character limit. For a number item (datatypes NUMBER, INT, MONEY, RNUMBER, RINT, RMONEY), the Maximum Length property specifies a user interface limit. This limit is always a character limit. There is no data limit. The data item can always internally hold up to 23 bytes (which is the maximum size of an Oracle number in native format), regardless of the value of the Maximum Length property. For a date or time item (datatypes DATETIME, DATE, TIME, JDATE, EDATE), the Maximum Length property specified in Forms Builder has almost no effect (See the Query Length property for a discussion of the only effect). As with "number" items, there is no data limit. For DATE and DATETIME items, the internal value is 7 bytes long, and for TIME, JDATE and EDATE items, the internal value is 4 bytes long . The user interface limit is derived from the format mask. This limit is always a character limit which is what is returned by GET_ITEM_PROPERTY(item, MAX_LENGTH). -
FRM-40831: Value too long for field ROWID.
Hi,
I'm a newbie in forms and I've a problem when working with index organized tables, it post me this error:
FRM-40831: Truncation occurred : Value too long for field ROWID.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks for your help.
RaúlThis is a bug in Forms 9i (bug 2408210). The workaround is to:
- change block property Key Mode to Updatable or Non-Updatable
- set item property Promary Key to Yes for all items that correspond to an index column in the index-organized table -

Unable to evaluate workflow rule - Value too long for field
Need help with a workflow error for a record update before the record is saved. There are 3 calculations that would be done in a particular order - all on number fields. Each time, I am overwriting existing values. The individual numbers could have up to 6 decimal spaces. When I try to update one or more fields that contain the calculation, I get an error message saying that the system is unable to evaluate the workflow rule - value too long for field (zNum6).
This same calculation is fine when a new record is entered and the calculation is done as a default field value.
Any ideas?I actually had to use a ToChar function at the beginning of the calculation and #### to indicate the number of digits to make this work. Oracle Help Desk provided the answer - quickly.
