Better Error messages when importing files fail.

RichieRich

While doing a import, it would be nice to have a more descriptive error message. I mean what does error 2 mean? Why not put a little extra effort in handling errors properly. It's a good practice when you display a descriptive error message to help the end user either a) Debug the problem himself or b) be able to report something that makes sense to the TeamSite admin.

Just my two cent.

I couldn't agree more. This is something that's prevalent throughout TeamSite. I just found something similar in TS6 and it was entered as a Feature Request and not a bug in the system. This shows me the lack of urgency on Interwoven's part to resolve things like this. And because Feature Requests are prioritized by how many companies complain about the same "feature", this could stay in the feature request abyss forever. Error handling is significant to any user - being able to comprehend what is wrong when something comes back with an error should be part of the design of the product. The fact that it wasn't in many cases is, to me, a bug.
