SA-35685

Summary

Same function is working fine in Chrome browser and user is able to see the maximum file size limit alert message.

The error is not displayed in
Internet Explorer but User is getting "Run-time-error '438'"

Issue is replicable in Internet Explorer browser 11.

So changed the
Internet Explorer to 32 bit. Still issue is replicable.


Error Messages



Not Applicable


Steps to Reproduce

  1. Login to Designer studio.
  2. Launch Case Manager Portal.
  3. Open any work Item.
  4. Click on "+Attachment".
  5. Use Drag drop and drag a file more than 10 MB file


Root Cause



Earlier PRPC 6.3 versions are using complete ActiveX control and supports only Internet Explorer.

Nevertheless,
Internet Explorer functionality was diverted and it cannot handle more than 10 MB files uploading through the existing prDragandDrop ActiveX control.

Note:
Pega 7 got more features for supporting Chrome and Firefox browsers.

Resolution



Apply HFix-32322.

In the HFix changes, few rules has been backported which is suitable from Pega 7.1.7 version to 7.1.6 version.

Note: Until Pega 7.1.6 version Drag and Drop activeX control is used for Drag and Drop functionality. Since Pega 7.1.7 version this functionality has been deprecating and introduced with HTML 5 concepts.
