Unable to checkin

kiwirob · Post by **kiwirob** » Thu Apr 15, 2004 6:27 pm

I'm got a bit of a problem. I can connect, browse etc and i've checked out a number of files. I have modified some of them and i'm trying to check them back in.

I get the following arror back from the server.

'The server had an error processing the file upload but did not return an error header'

This happens whether I use an individual file checkin or use the change set.

v 2.0.1

BTW: i get the same error if I try and add files to a folder, I can create new folders though

Have you looked through the KB article at:

?

I'd also suspect the MTU value on your client machine. This was recently discussed in a previous thread:

http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=672

Note: The MTU problems don't necessarily have anything to do with VPN. Also, it's quick and easy to test using the DRTCP utility mentioned in the other post...

Thanks, didn't find that one when I was searching.

I have disabled chunked encoding and it appears to be working now, any ideas what kind of performance hit I can expect with this feature?

I've updated the KB article to include the error message that you saw, so hopefully future searches on that error message will point people to the knowledge base article.

As far as performance hits, don't expect much. The main reason we went with chunked encoding by default is that it saves memory usage when uploading large files. When chunked encoding is disabled, the .Net Framework will buffer the entire file into memory before uploading, so that it can compute the content-length. It's obvious why that's a problem when you start uploading ISO images.

Thanks Jeremy, the largest files we have are only 10MB and most are only a few hundred KB so should be fantastic.

Thanks for your help
