Database Commit Size Exceeded Cloud Sync

Post by ctg7w6 »

Good morning!

I searched the forums but didn't find anyone else with this problem.

I deleted quite a few static groups in my library. Now it says it needs to update like 101 records when I press the cloud sync button.

However, after it tries to do this, it gives me the error: "Cloud Sync: BAD_REQUEST"

And then: "Error code: DATABASE_COMMIT_SIZE_EXCEEDED, Message: Database commit size exceeds limit."

Is there a way around this? I really need to sync my library!

Thank you so much!

How large is your library, how many references? Do you have enough free space on your iCloud account, but if it was a space limit the message from Apple would be different. Currently I can only suggest to try again later and if the problem will not gone please try to delete your library from cloud and re-upload your local library again. If you want please me your library to support@referencesontap.com for testing.

Yeah I have plenty of space in iCloud and my hard drive. I only have 2180 references. This has never happened before. I am seriously wondering if there is some limit somewhere of 100 because there are 101 "changes" it is trying to upload.

In any case, just to be clear... I should hit the cloud button and then "Remove Libraries from Cloud" and select my library? This will NOT delete my PDFs and library, correct? I will still maintain my local library?

Or should I do "Unlink" and then relink syncing and the library?

I just want to make sure because if I lose my library I lose ten years of work! :)

Yes, all you references and attachments are stored locally, so you can do Unlink, then "Remove Libraries from Cloud" to delete your cloud library and then sync your local library again.
