Hi, I work in the creation of a portal in SPS 2003. We found that some documents whose size was greater than 1 Mb can no longer be opened. Word returns a runtime error "1177". When we restart the farm ,problem is resolved but reappeared after several hours .We have tried to restart the database to see if it could solve the problem, the problem is not corrected. Then we restarted the front-end web services SharePoint, this does not work. Then we did an IIS reset,the problem is not corrected. This problem affects all types of documents (pdf, doc, ppt, xls ...). Thanks for your help. Best Regards. Mawi. + DEVELOPER

Hi Do you use Form Based Authentication with SPS 2003?If so, runtime error 1177 will occur. when you click on a document from the SharePoint site, the request for the document is being made by Microsoft Office, not Internet Explorer, so it does not receive the existing cookies from Internet Explorer. Therefore, you need to configure WebSEAL to use Windows desktop single sign-on to allow Office to authenticate to WebSEAL and proceed with the request based on the following link. http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/tividd/td/ITAME/SC32-1359-00/en_US/HTML/am51_webseal_guide78.htm#sso-windows-desktop Best Regards!

Thanks for your help. But we doesn't use Form Based Authentication with SPS 2003. The problem disappears when we reboot the front-end or when we deploy a new Solution Template (60\TEMPLATE). I click on a word document for example which size greater than 1Mb and Word tries to open the file but it doesn't open. If i use the path of the document et paste in my IE , "the page is not found". Any idea ? DEVELOPER

To close properly this thread, here is the solution. the error appears to come from improper installation of the SharePoint farm and SP2 did not seem to fix the situation. I requested the installation and it was no longer reproduces. ThanksMutandis mutatis
