Errors when checking in MS Office Docs after update


Douglas Lott (112) | asked Oct 20 '09, 5:05 p.m.
I've created an RTC 2.0 project which only contains documentation. I'm able to add MS Office documents, such as Powerpoint, Excel, and Word to a component, and deliver the adding of documents, but when I try to make a change to any of them, I get this error when I try to check-in the changes.
Error during upload
Failed to upload File /MyDocs/Test.ppt
Unable to determine properties for /MyDocs/Test.ppt
Resource is out of sync with the file system: '/MyDocs/Test.ppt'.

The error message says to reload the workspace which I do, but then I get the same message when trying to check in a change.

Any thoughts on what is happening. I've tried with word and excel and get the same error.

thanks

Thanks, that solved the issues!

I usually find that one can fix this error by applying "refresh" the
file in your Eclipse project (Eclipse doesn't know about the change,
because it was made by a non-eclipse editor).

I've submitted work item 97133 to see if we can get the checkin
operation to automatically refresh in this case, rather than throwing
the error.

Cheers,
Geoff
