Question

When I try and save something to my list in SharePoint I get the following error:

Unable to complete this operation.  Please contact your administrator.

A quick google says it may be a problem with disk space on the Database. I have checked my server and the smallest amount of space left on any of the drives is ~4GB. The file size is 1MB. I have checked the database and the data file is on unrestricted growth.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

The problem was the transaction log was full preventing any changes. The data file was fine.
