Duplicate Files

[Christian Brice]

We have mutliple users editing our intranet using a local/network connection
with Contribute. When adding links to files such as pdf's or word docs, that
are already sitting in the correct directory on the server, Contribute makes a
<b>duplicate</b> of the file with an _000 append to the filename.
This is causing issues as it is taking up space on the server, and causing
confusion among the users.
We also use Contribute on our internet site over an STFP connection, and
having tested on here it would appear the problem does not occur.
Anyone know of any solutions or encountered a similar problem?

Thanks

this is a known issue with Contribute version 3.0 and below. This issue has
been addressed in Contribute 3.1 which is a free update available from <a

Note: Do not update to 3.11 as the issue can be replicated in 3.11

thanks for that.

Unfortunately our company has now packaged 3.11 and is rolling that out so looks like we are stuck with the issue for the forseeable future.

Cheers
