Invalid text value. A text field contains invalid data. Check the value and try again

Hello,
I am having a problem with the error mentioned in the title. I see alot of others have experienced the same problem, but I have quite a twist to it.
I see the problem when I try to edit a list item, and then try to save the changes.
Here what I see in the ULS log:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Invalid text value. A text field contains invalid data. Check the value and try again
at Microsoft.SharePoint.Library.SPRequestInternalClass.AddOrUpdateItem(String bstrUrl, String bstrListName, Boolean bAdd, Boolean bSystemUpdate, Boolean bPreserveItemVersion, Boolean bUpdateNoVersion, Int32& plID, String& pbstrGuid, Guid pbstrNewDocId,
Boolean bHasNewDocId, String bstrVersion, Object& pvarAttachmentNames, Object& pvarAttachmentContents, Object& pvarProperties, Boolean bCheckOut, Boolean bCheckin, Boolean bMigration, Boolean bPublish, String bstrFileName, ISP2DSafeArrayWriter

ISP2DSafeArrayWriter pRestrictInsertCallback, ISP2DSafeArrayWriter pUniqueFieldCallback)
I have 3 front end servers(fx wfe1, wfe2, wfe3). And here is the twist.
If I access the library directly through wfe1 and wfe2, I get the error. If I access the library via wfe3 if works just fine.
So because of this, I think it is safe to assume that is has nothing to do with the character limit of 255. Nor does it have anything to do with the field type, since it is already set to mulitible lines of text.
So. Any ideas?
Regards,
Michael

To solve the problem you may have to change the field's parent type to "note". To do that you have to open your fldtypes... file under Templates/xml and change the line to:
"<Field Name="ParentType">Note</Field>" from "<Field Name="ParentType">Text</Field>"
You might also have to add a sql type if your text needs to be longer than 255 characters
<Field Name=”SQLType”>ntext</Field>
and inherit from SPFieldMultiLineText instead of SPFieldText

I am getthing this error while I tried to pass the value from an oracle package to the web when the the crystal report viewer kicks in.
I found the source of the error. Its just a paranthesis that I used with the phone number inside the function.... The function looks like this
function phone_number
return varchar2
is
begin
return '(123) 456 - 789';
end phone_number;
I really dont want that paranthesis to go. Its the format that everyone wanted. But they dont want that to be static on the report also
Please help

Sir, you are a legend!!!
Many thanks for putting me on the right track...
Here's where I went wrong and how I fixed it.
First I installed the Azure Pack: MySQL Extension on the MySQL server.
This was wrong, it needs to be installed on the WAP server/s.
So I installed the extension on the WAP server and it still didn't work.
So I uninstalled the extension from the MySQL server and it still didn't work.
So I also installed the MySQL Connector/Net on the WAP server and it worked.
This eventually fixed it.
What I will say is that in the documentation it doesn't mention installing the MySQL Connector/Net from the web platform installer on the WAP server (unless I have completely missed this)?
Thanks again :-)

Change the value of a field in a form when the form is displayed

Hello
I have a report which has a link to a form for updating the records. I have used a link to the form from report which displays the the record to be updated i.e it gets default values from the report. I need to change one of these values at the time of displaying the form. The set_value in the 'before displaying the page' section doesn't change the vaue displayed in the form. I tried in other 'Advanced pl/sql' sections provided but didn't succeed.
Thank you
Jayasree

hi,
let's call the new value u want to set "NewValue"
insert this code in the before displayin' the page
htp.p('<script language="Javascript1.1">
function defaultValue(fieldname)
var thefield;
for( var v=0; v < document.forms[0].elements.length; v++)
// get the right field
if (document.forms[0].elements[v].name.indexOf(fieldname) >= 0 )
thefield = document.forms[0].elements[v];
thefield.value='''||NewValue||''';
break;
</script>');
in the after displaying the page section call the function above with the appropriate field:
htp.p('<script language=javascript1.1>
defaultValue(''Field_Name'');
</script>');

What are the security settings to lock down a form with fillable fields and yet allow someone with Reader to fill in the fields as will as save the form and print it?

What are the security settings to lock down a form with fillable fields and yet allow someone with Reader to fill in the fields as will as save the form and print it?

You want to allow someone to open your document and fill out the form (in the fields you have created), but not change or edit the form, right? Here's the answer - assuming you are using Acrobat Pro and someone will be opening the PDF using at least Acrobat Reader 9 and up:
Tools > Protection > Encrypt < Encrypt with Password
Answer YES to change the security.
A new window opens:
     Do NOT select Document Open (or that will require a password to open the document.)
     Select: Permissions (Check the box next to "Restrict editing and printing of the document.")
     Change the following 2 settings from the drop-down box:
          Printing Allowed: Select High Resolution
          Changes Allowed: Select Commenting, filling in form fields, and signing signature fields
          Leave selected: "Enable text access for screen reader devices for the visually impaired"
          Change Permissions Password (insert a strong password)
          Leave all other settings alone in "Options"
          OK - OK
          Re-enter the Permissions Password (the one you entered above)
          OK - OK
          Save the PDF to apply the security [notice that (SECURED0 will appear after the document title]

You may have working code now, but the code you posted is horrible and I'm going to tell you a much much much better approach for the JDBC part. (You should probably isolate your database code from your user interface code as well, but I'm skipping over that structural problem...)
Do this instead:
    public void getData(String a){
        PreparedStatement p;
        String strQuery = "select count(*) the_count from customer where id = ?";
        try {
         //create a prepared statement object to execute sql statements, it's better, faster, safer
         p = c.prepareStatement(strQuery);
            // bind the parameter value to the "?"
            p.setInt(1, Integer.parseInt(a) );
            //execute the query
            ResultSet rs = p.executeQuery( );
            // if the query doesn't throw an exception, it will have exactly one row
            rs.next();
            System.out.println("i am testing");
            if (rs.getInt("the_count") > 0 ) {
            // it's there, do what you need to...
         else
              JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"I could not find the value");
        catch (SQLException e) {
             // JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"You may enter wrong id");
             // if you get an exception, something is really wrong, and it's NOT user error
        // always, always, ALWAYS close JDBC resources in a finally block
        finally
            p.close();
    }First, this is simpler and easier to read.
Second, this retrieves just the needed information, whether or not the id is in the database. Your way will get much much slower as more data goes into the database. My way, if there is an index on the id column, more data doesn;t slow it down very much.
I've also left some important points in comments.
No guarantees that there isn't a dumb typo in there; I didn't actually compile it, much less test it. It's at least close though...

How to check the value in Table CDPOS

Mostly I can't see the following fields value in the table CDPOS,
(1) CDPOS-VALUE_NEW
(2) CDPOS-VALUE_OLD
In fact, it should have values, so how to check the values, is there any special method needed?
Thanks and best regards.

Ferry Lianto,
Thank you very much for your expertise.
It's helpful to get some contents via FM:CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_POSITIONS, the problem is, to some kind of DELETION operation, the log in table CDPOS is very simple, I still don't know which contents were deleted even though I found records in table CDPOS.
Is there any other suggestions?
Thanks and best regards.

How to check the value of "The Interrupt Status Flag"?

Hi, thank you for reading this post!
Invoking Thread.interrupt() sets the value of the Interrupt Status Flag.
Just wondering if there is a Java method to check the value of this flag? Or is using isInterrupted() or interrupted() the only way to check?

Entry in field Funds Center required; check the field control Mg No.FMEF010

Hi,
We have a Z tcode for converting planned order to purchase requisition.
We use Account assignment P - Project and A - Asset.
We have WBS element and fund center linked to it.
For the Z tcode while converting Planned order to purchase requisition we are getting below error
Error: Entry in field Funds Center required; check the field control Msg No.FMEF010
While creating manually purchase requisition with same GL code and WBS element the fund center gets automatically picked.
Can anyone pls let me know in which table we can find the link between WBS element and fund center so that we can code the same in our program. In PRPS table we can find the link between WBS and profit center.
Or is there any user exit that can be used.
Thanks in advance.

Hello
If you do a F1 in the value date field it will give you the answer - The value date is used in bank accounts and bank sub-accounts.
As regards the other query check whether the tax code has been already created.
Hope it helps.
