Help With Publishing to LMS

May 11, 2021

I am having issues with publishing a course to Review. I keep getting the following message:

"The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less that 260 characters, and the director name must be less that 248 characters."

I've resaved the course to my local drive.  I've renamed it.  Tried to republish several ways and I keep getting the same error message.

Any ideas on what I need to do?

Hello, Joshua.

Thank you for reaching out and for sharing your .story file!

I noticed you mentioned publishing to LMS on your title, but Review in your post. Are you getting the same error when publishing to both options?

I was able to publish your file to Review 360 (you can take a look here) and to LMS without issues, so let me ask you a few questions to try to narrow down the problem:

  • Are you publishing the file to your local drive?
  • When publishing, can you change the title to something shorter?

If the problem persists after the steps above, I'd recommend connecting with one of our support engineers through a case.

Let me know if this works!
