Error box shown while generating an OneNote notebook in SharePoint

Asked By Alberto Dexter 20 points N/A Posted on - 10/06/2012

Hi guys,

While generating an OneNote notebook in SharePoint I received an error message.

 

I received the error message frequently whenever I tried to generate a notebook. Have a look at the error message below.

 

It is indicating several possible reasons. However, I have no idea for the error message.

 

Please help me to fix it.

 

Thank you.

 

 

OneNote cannot create a new notebook at: 

XXXXX/Shared Documents/OneNote/test2/

 

Possible reasons include:

-The specified location is not available.

-You do not have permissions to modify the specified location.

-The path or notebook name contains invalid characters.

-The combined path and notebook name exceeds the minimum path length.

 

Adjust the path and notebook name, and try again.

                                                    OK

Use the following workaround to resolve the issue:

• On the Share menu, click Create Shared Notebook.
• And then type a name for the shared notebook. After that choose the notebook template that you want to use.
• Click Next, and then click Multiple people will share the notebook, and then click On a server.
• Click Next, and then type the path of the Windows SharePoint Services server, and then click Browse.
• After that choose the document library that you want to use, and then click Select.
• Click Create.

Regards,

Nicke
