Error "Field is too large (32k)" importing local Update site
Thomas Hampel
7 November 2010When importing a local update site I still get this error from time to time... it seems to be caused by the number of features within an updatesite.
lsclassimportsite: cimportsite::serialize (line 108)
lsclassimportui: cimportui::importsite (line 141)
dlgimportsite: queryclose (line 13)
Up to now I was not able to find the root cause, nor I was able to work around this problem.
When reviewing support forums it seems like I'm not the only one.
Update: Looks like this is caused by a large "feature.xml" file inside of a JAR package. It seems some vendors like to put a full law book inside this XML file which in the end exceeds the 32k limitation of a plain text field in Notes.
