Attachment too large !

Since I reinstalled OS ver 1.0.7.3312 on my Playbook, I an getting this message in all my mail attachments: " Attachment too large " making impossible to download them. When the help buttom next to this message is clicked you get this other message: " The attachment exceeds the download size set by your administrator "
The afore mentioned message appears too when I try to compose a new mail with attachments. This happens ALWAYS, no matter which email account I am using. Otherwise in my bridged BB Bold 9700, attachments are not an issue nor are they in the mail accounts when entered directly trough Playbook's web browser... seems the problem is in the bridged mail client on the Playbook.
Question: How can this fixed?... Already deleted bridge in both equipments and reinstalled it without any result, already did a complete as of factory system install...

I have the same probelm, having just purchased the PB. n my second call to BB, after waiting 20 minutes, I reported tpo them that my BES provider was on version 4.1.4. Response was they need to have 4.1.5 or go to 5.0.3 and i will solve the problem. You'd think they would have had testing this before re;leasing the PB upgrade which triggered the problem. I'm no techie, but after debating on PB and using BB's for many years, this is becomeing to much of a hassle!!
Great products that don't work when you buy it, are simply junk!

Attachment too large - Possible solutions to deliver a smaller file ?

Hello
We do have an iBot configured which sends out an XLS with a large detailed report. This report is around 8MB long and the users are complaining about the size of the file. We need to somehow deliver this in a smaller file (ZIP is fine) or publish it on a sharepoint location or shared drive.
Does anyone has implemented something similar already?
Thank you!
Eduardo Ferrari

You can use javascript in your iBot to deposit the file to a server location. Read these:

ERROR : OpenDoc CR to PDF - File is too large for attachment.

We are getting the following error in 3.1 using an OpenDoc call when we call a large Crystal Report to PDF format...
Error : 52cf6f8f4bbb6d3.pdf File is too large for attachment.
It runs OK from BOE when given parameters that returned 44 pages. (PDF = 139 KB)
We get the error on a parameter-set that returns 174 pages when run via CR Desktop or as a SCHEDULED Instance. (PDF = 446 KB).
Client application can't use the SDKs to SCHEDULE Instances - only configured for OpenDoc calls.....
The BOE server is running on SOLARIS - and it's is a 2 Server CMS-Cluster.
The problem is SPORADIC, so I am thinking the issue is related to a specific setting on one of the servers.
Any thoughts on where to start looking...?

Problem is _not _with the number of Rows returned - it is an issue with the size of the PDF file that it is trying to move.
Found a possible WINDOWS solution on BOB - need to find if there is an equivalent for SOLARIS...
Check the dsws.properties on web server D:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\dswsbobje\WEB-INF\classes
See if you can change any parameter to remove size limitation.

ReportExportControl -- File is too large for attachment

Hi all,
Back with a exception again.
Few reports deployed on BOXIR2 SP4 comes with an error as following
com.crystaldecisions.report.web.viewer.ReportExportControl
15bf5ea9377e1c1.rtf File is too large for attachment.
Few reports take date range as input and generates result based on that. When date range is small report is generated without any problem. If is large and has large set of records(approx above 10K records) then comes up with the above error.
Another set of reports whatever be the case throws this error.
But when the parameters are set in CMS console and run in console report is generated without any problem what ever be the date range.
After searching a lot no solutions in hand!!
Please suggest solutions/possible scenarios / checklist to solve this issue.
Thanks & Regards
lnarayanan

It turns out the report was so large it was basically overloading everything (disk space, cache sizes, timeouts, etc.) ... Here's the solution from the case:
1) For page server and cache server
Make sure location of Temp Files/Cache files has enough free space (more than 500 MB)
2) For page server and cache server
Minutes Before an Idle Connection is Closed = 90
3) For page server
Minutes Before an Idle Report Job is Closed = 90
4) For cache server
Maximum Simultaneous Processing Threads = automatic
5) In the command line of page server and cache server, add
"-requestTimeout 5400000" [without " "]
6) Maximum Cache Size Allowed (KBytes) = set it to an appropriate value (for e.g. for 500 Mb, value should be 500*1024 = 512000)
(This setting limits the amount of hard disk space used to store cached pages. If we need to handle large reports, a large cache size is needed. Maximum allowed is 2048 GB)
After all this, an "Error 500 - Java heap space" happened. The amount of memory allocated to a JVM application can be set using the options -Xms (the initial size) and -Xmx (the maximum size).

"File is too large for attachment." using the Viewer SDK

Post Author: CBurger
CA Forum: JAVA
I'm using the Viewer SDK to retrieve a report from BOE XI 2 SR2.
This is done via the a piece of Java code ...
ReportExportControl exportControl = new ReportExportControl();
ExportOptions exportOptions = new ExportOptions();
IReportSourceFactory psReportSourceFactory = (IReportSourceFactory) enterpriseSession.getService(ReportConstants.REPORT_PSREPORT_FACTORY);
Object reportSource = psReportSourceFactory.openReportSource(report.getID(), Locale.ENGLISH);
exportControl.setReportSource(reportSource);
exportControl.setURI(reportPath.toString());
exportControl.setExportOptions(exportOptions);
exportControl.setExportAsAttachment(true);
exportOptions.setExportFormatType(exportFormat);
exportControl.setParameterFields(reportParameters);
exportControl.processHttpRequest(request, response, getServlet().getServletConfig().getServletContext(), null);
exportControl.dispose();
The report is generated as an Excel file.
If I call for a small Excel - no problem: a dialog pops up asking me to "save as ..."
If I call for a larger Excel (about 20MB) - PROBLEM "File is too large for attachment."
Unfortunatly I don't find any information in the log files.
Any ideas?

Has this ever been resolved? We are having a similar issue.
Thanks!

File too large - attachment settings not working

Hi there
We are having problems with attaching files in IMS 5.2 & wondered if anybody can help.
Our outgoing mail message max size is set to 50MB (I know about the extra 33% space required for encoding) and yet we still cannot attach files to emails that are greater than 5MB.
Does anyone have any idea why this is not working?
Anytime we try to send a 7 or 8 MB file an error "File too large "comes up right away
The settings in the messaging server console is set to 50MB. This is under the HTTP service
There was a previous post but the solution did not solve my problem.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

There are separate settings for webmail attaqchments. Please check documentation at:
http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6020-10/cfgutil.htm
and look at:
service.http.maxmessagesize
and
service.http.maxpostsize
these both default to 5 megs.
You have to restart the webmail daemon to make a change take effect.

Attached images display too large

when using mail in os 10.4, if someone sends me a message with pictures attached, they are at a size that you can see the whole picture when you scroll down in the message. if i forward that email to someone, the pictures display too large and you cannot see the whole image in the message. is there a setting for this somewhere?
thanks

BDAqua wrote:
Ah thanks, maybe I was experimenting with too small of pics!?
Hmm, interesting...
Mail will remebember the size and will automatically use it the next time you attach an image if you forget to manually change it back.
And if the last setting was small, the menu may be there, but will have no effect since you cannot Scale up!
Yes, it works only for downsizing.
Also, it seems that if the pic is in quoted nesting the size setting has no effect!?
On Mac OS X 10.5 and later it works regardless of quotation. If it does not on Mac OS X Tiger, it must be a bug that was fixed later.

"This file attachment is too large to be viewed." What?

I created a 15.6MB m4v for iPhone using compressor to test being able to email clips to a client for review on his iphone. A couple of strange things. First, when the message is received, the attachment now reads that it is 20.6MB in size. Second, when I attempt to open it on my iPhone... it gives me the message "This file attachment is too large to be viewed."
Is there a limitation with the iPhone here that I didn't know about?

Yes this is a public board, which shouldn't exclude common courtesy.
This is a user to user help forum only and fellow users that post answers to questions or provide suggestions here volunteer their time to do so.
I don't have a problem with you providing what you think is a shortcoming, but there is nothing wrong with me providing a reasons or reasons why it isn't a shortcoming for the most part. If that is being "needlessly defensive", then you are needlessly interested only in thoughts that agree with your own.
What does that mean exactly? I wasn't suggesting they would, they usually use their own dedicated mail servers... which they can set to unlimited if they wish... which is why putting the limitation on the iphone pulls the rug out from under them if they want to use the iPhone AND send/receive large files via email. Pretty simple equation really.
What it means exactly is, you were talking about business use and you mentioned Gmail having a 20MB overall message size limit. Yes many businesses use their own dedicated server, which they can set to unlimited if they wish, but this will only work internally and with other businesses that do the same.
I'll bet you dollars to donuts the overwhelming majority of businesses with or without their own dedicated email server do not have an unlimited overall message size limit. Some may have a larger overall message size limit than 10MB, but 10MB is a very common limit.
So any way in which the iPhone can become more useful as a business device is a good thing... isn't it?
Certainly, but what you consider as being more useful may or many not match what I or someone else may consider as being more useful and there is nothing wrong with that.
Perhaps you will never need or otherwise enjoy landscape email, full screen attached video playback, or attachments greater than 10MB... but to not see the obvious improvement as a business device had these features been implemented in 2.0.2 just doesn't make any sense to me.
I have been discussing overall message size limits only. I haven't mentioned anything about these other items.

File is too large for attachment - BO Integration Error

I developed Crystal reports (using Universe)in CR XIR2 and deployed in BO XIR 2 Repository.
Reports database is -DB2.
I am able to preview the reports in CMC/Infoview.
But when we are integrating our Application(Called GBS) to BO ,and when I am trying to open CR reprots from BO repository,it is throwing error " File is too large for attachment " .
The report is not too big even ,it is having only 100 records.
I am not sure why it is throwing this error?Did anyone faced the same error ever?
Please let me know any resolution for this,as it is blockign for me.
is it something related to the application (GBS) or any Pagerserver/Cacheserver issue ?
Will wait for any response.

Has this ever been resolved? We are having a similar issue.

Attachment file too large

Hello,
I have messaging server 7.
I am composing the message having attachment around 5MB and 4.2 MB
It says file too large.
I checked the domain level attachment quota, it is unlimited.
i tried putting value 10,1000, however no effect.
what am I missing.
Users quota is unlimited.
regards,
Sumant

It says file too large.There are two limits that control the size of emails composed in the various webmail interfaces (Messenger Express/UWC/Convergence):
bash-3.00# ./configutil -H -o service.http.maxpostsize
Configuration option: service.http.maxpostsize
Description: Maximum HTTP post content length. If not specified, uses max(5*1024*1024, service.http.maxmessagesize).
Syntax: uint
service.http.maxpostsize is currently unset
bash-3.00# ./configutil -H -o service.http.maxmessagesize
Configuration option: service.http.maxmessagesize
Description: Maximum message size client is allowed to send.
Syntax: uint
Default: 5242880
service.http.maxmessagesize is currently unset
So the service.http.maxpostsize is the maximum size of any given attachment upload the service.http.maxmessagesize is the maximum overall size of the email => both are set to 5MB by default.
After changing the configutil settings you need to restart the mshttpd process for the change to take effect (./stop-msg http;./start-msg http).

Shane.

HT1338 Since having my Macbook Pro attached to a large display screen, everything is too large for the screen. Is there a cure please?

Today I had my Mac linked to a projector screen, and since disconnection evrything from the desk top onwards has been too large for the screen. Before that evrything was perfect. I have tried zoom buttons etc, but nothing seems to work. Any help gratefully rceived.

So it's not the Zoom feature? Open System Preferences Universal Access pane Seeing tab. Make sure Zoom is turned OFF.
If it's not that, then you may have the resolution set so that it is not optimal for the built-in display. Open System Preferences Displays pane Display tab. The optimal resolution is usually the one at the top of the list of choices.

"Backup is too large for the backup volume" error

I've been backing up with TM for a while now, and finally it seems as though the hard drive is full, since I'm down to 4.2GB available of 114.4GB.
Whenever TM tries to do a backup, it gives me the error "This backup is too large for the backup volume. The backup requires 10.8 GB but only 4.2GB are available. To select a larger volume, or make the backup smaller by excluding files, open System Preferences and choose Time Machine."
I understand that I have those two options, but why can't TM just erase the oldest backup and use that free space to make the new backup? I know a 120GB drive is pretty small, but if I have to just keep accumulating backups infinitely, I'm afraid I'll end up with 10 years of backups and a 890-zettabyte drive taking up my garage. I'm hoping there's a more practical solution.

John,
Please review the following article as it might explain what you are encountering.
*_“This Backup is Too Large for the Backup Volume”_*
First, much depends on the size of your Mac’s internal hard disk, the quantity of data it contains, and the size of the hard disk designated for Time Machine backups. It is recommended that any hard disk designated for Time Machine backups be +at least+ twice as large as the hard disk it is backing up from. You see, the more space it has to grow, the greater the history it can preserve.
*Disk Management*
Time Machine is designed to use the space it is given as economically as possible. When backups reach the limit of expansion, Time Machine will begin to delete old backups to make way for newer data. The less space you provide for backups the sooner older data will be discarded. [http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/15137.html]
However, Time Machine will only delete what it considers “expired”. Within the Console Logs this process is referred to as “thinning”. It appears that many of these “expired” backups are deleted when hourly backups are consolidated into daily backups and daily backups are consolidated into weekly backups. This consolidation takes place once hourly backups reach 24 hours old and daily backups reach about 30 days old. Weekly backups will only be deleted, or ‘thinned’, once the backup drive nears full capacity.
One thing seems for sure, though; If a new incremental backup happens to be larger than what Time Machine currently considers “expired” then you will get the message “This backup is too large for the backup volume.” In other words, Time Machine believes it would have to sacrifice to much to accommodate the latest incremental backup. This is probably why Time Machine always overestimates incremental backups by 2 to 10 times the actual size of the data currently being backed up. Within the Console logs this is referred to as “padding”. This is so that backup files never actually reach the physically limits of the backup disk itself.
*Recovering Backup Space*
If you have discovered that large unwanted files have been backed up, you can use the Time Machine “time travel” interface to recovered some of that space. Do NOT, however, delete files from a Time Machine backup disk by manually mounting the disk and dragging files to the trash. You can damage or destroy your original backups by this means.
Additionally, deleting files you no longer wish to keep on your Mac does not immediately remove such files from Time Machine backups. Once data has been removed from your Macs' hard disk it will remain in backups for some time until Time Machine determines that it has "expired". That's one of its’ benefits - it retains data you may have unintentionally deleted. But eventually that data is expunged. If, however, you need to remove backed up files immediately, do this:
Launch Time Machine from the Dock icon.
Initially, you are presented with a window labeled “Today (Now)”. This window represents the state of your Mac as it exists now. +DO NOT+ delete or make changes to files while you see “Today (Now)” at the bottom of the screen. Otherwise, you will be deleting files that exist "today" - not yesterday or last week.
Click on the window just behind “Today (Now)”. This represents the last successful backup and should display the date and time of this backup at the bottom of the screen.
Now, navigate to where the unwanted file resides. If it has been some time since you deleted the file from your Mac, you may need to go farther back in time to see the unwanted file. In that case, use the time scale on the right to choose a date prior to when you actually deleted the file from your Mac.
Highlight the file and click the Actions menu (Gear icon) from the toolbar.
Select “Delete all backups of <this file>”.
*Full Backup After Restore*
If you are running out of disk space sooner than expected it may be that Time Machine is ignoring previous backups and is trying to perform another full backup of your system? This will happen if you have reinstalled the System Software (Mac OS), or replaced your computer with a new one, or hard significant repair work done on your exisitng Mac. Time Machine will perform a new full backup. This is normal. [http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1338]
You have several options if Time Machine is unable to perform the new full backup:
A. Delete the old backups, and let Time Machine begin a fresh.
B. Attach another external hard disk and begin backups there, while keeping this current hard disk. After you are satisfied with the new backup set, you can later reformat the old hard disk and use it for other storage.
C. Ctrl-Click the Time Machine Dock icon and select "Browse Other Time Machine disks...". Then select the old backup set. Navigate to files/folders you don't really need backups of and go up to the Action menu ("Gear" icon) and select "Delete all backups of this file." If you delete enough useless stuff, you may be able to free up enough space for the new backup to take place. However, this method is not assured as it may not free up enough "contiguous space" for the new backup to take place.
*Outgrown Your Backup Disk?*
On the other hand, your computers drive contents may very well have outgrown the capacity of the Time Machine backup disk. It may be time to purchase a larger capacity hard drive for Time Machine backups. Alternatively, you can begin using the Time Machine Preferences exclusion list to prevent Time Machine from backing up unneeded files/folders.
Consider as well: Do you really need ALL that data on your primary hard disk? It sounds like you might need to Archive to a different hard disk anything that's is not of immediate importance. You see, Time Machine is not designed for archiving purposes, just as a backup of your local drive(s). In the event of disaster, it can get your system back to its' current state without having to reinstall everything. But if you need LONG TERM storage, then you need another drive that is removed from your normal everyday working environment.
This KB article discusses this scenario with some suggestions including Archiving the old backups and starting fresh [http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/15137.html]
Let us know if this clarifies things.
Cheers!

I tried to send and email file that was too large and now my email is not working. the draft continue to repopulate over and over

I need help with email. I composed a new mail with an attachment that was too large. I never sent it, but it locked my mail up and continues to repopulate the draft.

I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.
