Common Error Messages

List-bound Zenpo web parts map common SharePoint problems to the messages below. Product pages note any wording that differs.

Shared messages​

CauseTypical message
Permission lost (403)You no longer have access to this list. / …to this content.
List deleted or renamed (404)The configured list could not be found. It may have been deleted or renamed.

TimeoutLoading is taking longer than expected.

UnknownSomething went wrong while loading items. (the noun may change)

A Retry or Try again button appears with the error. People Directory, Resources Library, and Birthdays and Anniversaries use Retry. Side Navigation, Stats Counter, and Dynamic Blurbs use Try again.

A slow-load notice appears at 8 seconds: Loading is taking longer than expected...

Cached-copy fallback​

If SharePoint cannot be reached and a cached copy exists, most products show the last saved copy with a notice such as Showing the last saved copy — SharePoint could not be reached just now.

Caps refuse rather than truncate​

When a product has a source cap, an over-cap list is refused. The web part does not silently drop rows. Use a filtered view. See How Zenpo Web Parts Use Your SharePoint Data.

License overlays​

Registration, trial, seat, and licensing-server messages are documented on License Messages Explained.
