Having Trouble Posting? About the “System cannot process form” Error

"The IT department is looking into this right now. As soon as I hear back from them I'll update this post."

Yep the IT dept has its top two techs working on it right now and they will get back to you as soon as they have it figured out.

(they're) ERRORHUNTING

I haven't had a problem with posting. But then again, my attention span is too short to make a long -

Ohh look! A butterfly!

I was experiencing the problem for days.

No amount of alcohol would solve the problem.

Blasphemer!

You should be taken out back and given shots.

(I suspect your heretical hypothesis simply wasn't tested sufficiently to reveal where it breaks down.)

Well if you have a large post, instead of CTRL-R, use CTRL-A on the text and then CTRL-C, so when CTRL-R doesn't work, you can use CTRL-V to try again.

I was suspecting that the server is timing out while the post is being composed. Any how, I select all/highlight and copy my posting Ctrl + A, Ctrl + C (Cmd + A, Cmd + C), back up to the reply button, hit reply and paste Ctrl + V (Cmd + V), preview and submit.

Yes, it appears to be a timeout issue. Once I realized it, I got the copy and paste to work the very first time!

What I found that always resolves that problem of posting a reply is, to copy the supposedly reply, (right-click mouse then copy), open a new page for a new reply, then paste the copied response to the new spot provided, preview then post.. So far it always works!

It is the timing. You are taking too long. How long is too long, I don't know. The way I get around it is the following:

Enter your post in the normal way, just as I am doing now. Open up Microsoft word, or any other word processor, into a half screen window (don't do anything with it yet). Left mouse on the "Preview Comment" as you normally would. Now comes the solution---

1) highlight all of you post in the preview section and right mouse "copy".

2) move the mouse pointer over to the word processor (WP) blank page, right mouse and "paste" the test into the WP. Now you see your text in the WP.

3) move back (top left arrow for IE) to the original blank page for the original post.

4) highlight all the text in the WP, holding the left mouse key down "drag" it over to the original blank entry section. As you do this you will see a small arrow and square while you are in the entry box.

5) lift up the left mouse key and the text is now back in the original entry section of the CR4 but in a negative image. Right mouse over any blank space within the box and it changes back to the way you want it. You are back where you started and in only a minute or two.

6) If you want to save your entry, go back to the WP, left arrow the counter-clockwise arrow at the header and the text reappears. Save it to the location on your disk where you want it.

This may seem like a lot to do but it is short, 1-2 minutes, and solves the problem. The reason why this works is that the timer resets when you go back to the original blank entry screen. Also when you have the text in the WP, use the spell checker in it. It is much more thorough than the CR4 spell check.

Because of the time I have used up writing this I will probably have to do the short procedure to enter this comment.

Good Luck, Old Salt

Still SNAFU.

See #14

Try doing it that way, it only takes a minute or 2.

You can skip #1-3 if you write your reply in a word processor. Then do #4.

i.e. write it in a WP, highlight it and drag it to the empty CR4 reply rectangle. Change from "negative" by pushing left mouse key on the rectangle.

Do what you normally do from there on.

Since doing this I have always been able to post a reply that took long to complete.

Try It, You May Like It! Certainly better than other alternatives

Good Luck, Old Salt

Do what I normally do????

Drool down the side of my face, and pi$$ off everyone around me?

What I have been doing is just Copy and paste to a new reply a few min later. Seemed to work today. Thanks though. If it keeps up I'll try that. Bob.

I usually go the "Preview Comment" section but you can do anything you like.

I like the WP spell checker better than the CR4 one, since Spelling wasn't one of my stellar performances in my educational enlightenments. Much better at math and science, football, basketball, hooky, looking at certain young ladies, mischief, drinking while underage, and other sophomoric endeavors.

I havn't figgured out how to use a different spell checker in CR4 yet cause I need to add "computer skills" to my list of my setllar performances, in addition to your above mentioned speelin.

I'll give your IT guys/gals a clue, it all started right after you announced an outage to install a "new and improved" version of the software a few months ago, never saw the error before that, now every one of my posts is "timeout" bait. Seems we've all danced to that tune before.

It might have something to do with the cookies setting on peoples browser...or not...My workaround is if it's taken more than a minute to compose a reply, I highlight and copy the post, if post fails I hit the back button on the browser until I'm at the page with the post I'm replying to, 3 times I think, hit reply again and paste the post....If there is a picture included, it is sometimes blown out of proportion, I highlight and hit the space bar to erase the pic, and repaste the pic from original source....
