Upload to SharePoint Server fails when the content library name contains spaces in IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

Upload to SharePoint Server fails when the content library


name contains spaces in IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture


Abstract


Upload to SharePoint Server fails when the content library name contains spaces in IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

Symptom




The batch logs may contain errors, or when using the SharePoint Test Utility then a message box may display the following:

Exception of type 'Microsoft.SharePoint.SoapServer.SoapServerException' was thrown

 

Upload to other content libraries within the same SharePoint site may succeed despite identical SharePoint permissions, credentials and file type used for testing.


Resolving the problem




Note: If the library which you are uploading documents does not contain spaces or special characters, then this document is not applicable to your issue.

 

Update the library name to exclude spaces:

1. Browse to the library using an administrative account

2. Go to Library Settings

3. Select "Title, description and navigation" under General

4. Update the Name field to remove or replace spaces

5. Save and test

 

Try limiting the name to use only alphanumeric characters and underscores from the English alphabet if the problem persists in order to help isolate it. For example:

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwyxz 1234567890_
