<H3>Errors</H3>
<P>
Errors in P4Web and Perforce can be caused by a number of reasons:
<UL>
<P>
<LI><A HREF="auth.html">Password</A> problems.
<P>
<LI>Incorrect <A HREF="settings.html">configuration settings</A>.
<P>
<LI>Using <A HREF="tips.html#bookmarks">browser bookmarks</A>
that don't work with P4Web in
<A HREF="browseonly.html">Viewer mode</A>.
<P>
<LI>Maxresults limits:
<blockquote>
In some environments,
turning on the "Show recent activity" preference in the
<a href="pathbrowser.html">Tree view</a> can cause
<font color=red>
"Request too large (over <i>nnnnnn</i>); see 'p4 help maxresults'"
</font>
to appear in the <a href="controlpanel.html">control panel</a>.
You can work around the problem by either:
<P>
<ul>
<li>Turning off recent activity display --- click the
"Hide recent activity" shortcut button or use the
<a href="settings.html">Settings</a> page.
<li>Navigating down the depot path hierarchy until the messages
disappear.
</ul>
<p>
("Maxresults" can be set by the Perforce administrator to
prevent the Perforce server from getting swamped by reporting
commands.
See the <a href="http://www.perforce.com/perforce/technical.html"><i>
Perforce System Administrator's Guide</i></a> for more information.)
</blockquote>
<P>
<LI>Maxscanrows limits:
<blockquote>
In some environments, setting the <b>Files matching...</b> filter to
search for files can cause
<font color=red>
"Too many rows scanned (over <i>nnnnnn</i>); see 'p4 help maxscanrows'"
</font>
to appear as an error.
<P>
You can prevent this error from occurring by entering a more specific query.
<P>
For instance, rather than entering:
<p>
<TABLE BORDER=1 cellpadding=5 width=200>
<TR>
<TD><KBD>//...<i>aaa</i>...</KBD></TD>
</TR>
</table>
<P>
Enter a more specific path, like:
<p>
<TABLE BORDER=1 cellpadding=5 width=200>
<TR>
<TD><KBD>//depot/main/...<i>aaa</i>...</KBD></TD>
</TR>
</table>
<p>
("Maxscanrows" can be set by the Perforce administrator to
prevent the Perforce server from getting swamped by reporting
commands.
See the <a href="http://www.perforce.com/perforce/technical.html">
<i>Perforce System Administrator's Guide</i></a> for more information.)
</blockquote>
<P>
<LI>Having your
<a href="defs.html#clientworkspace">client workspace</a>
and your browser on different machines.
<blockquote>
Unless your P4Web is running
on Unix, you won't be able to
<a href="launcheditor.html">launch editors</a>, or
run the interactive <a href="resolve.html">resolve</a> program
if your browser and your workspace are on different host machines.
Also, the <a href="filebrowser.html">File Browser's</a>
link to local workspace files may not work unless your browser is running on the
machine where your workspace is.
