SmartAssembly 6

This application has submitted too many reports

The SmartAssembly webservice lets you store up to 1000 reports on the webservice. When you download a report to your local SQL server or mdb database, it is deleted from the webservice. 

When you reach the 1000 reports limit on the webservice, your programs cannot send any more error reports to the webservice. Your end-users see the error message 'This application has submitted too many reports'.

To avoid this, we recommend that you set up a scheduled task to regularly download your error reports. Here at Redgate, we download our own reports from the SmartAssembly webservice every 15 minutes.

If you have installed your own custom webservice, you can increase the report limit. To do this, change the value of MaxReportsPerUser in the web.config file, which is saved in the webservice directory.
