Security validation for this page is invalid
Hello friends,
I am seeking your wisdom once more.
When I try to upload a pdf to our sharepoint folder I get the following error.
What is causing this and how can I fix it?
Many thanks in advance.
kapoosht Calculating with time is difficult in Excel. 1 hour = 1/24th of one day, 1 minute = 1/60th of one hour or 1/1440th of one day. When your duration goes over 24 hours (=1 day), Excel starts counting time from scratch. Thus, 25 hours equals 1 day plus 1 hour. Custom formatting allows you to display this as 25:00:00, but the time portion is still only 1 hour.
If you want to calculate with hours, it's better to use a decimal representation of it. E.g. 6hrs and 15 minutes = 6.25 hrs. Adding up 4 instances of 6.25 then becomes 25.0 (hours). Now, I never tried to sum time entries in a pivot table, but I'm not surprised that it creates problems. Calculating with numbers, though, alway works. Suppose your ticket time is in A1, the following formula will translate it to a decimal number for the hours. Use these in the pivot table in stead.
=DAY(A1)*24+HOUR(A1)+MINUTE(A1)/60
Try it and see if it resolves your problem.

First, clear your browser cache and cookies, then reopen the browser and try accessing SharePoint again.
Ensure you have the necessary permissions to upload files by checking the Library Settings > Permissions. If not, temporarily grant your account admin permissions for your department in Active Directory, then restart your device.
Additionally, add the SharePoint site URL to your browser's Trusted Sites list. Use a different browser to identify if the issue is browser-specific. For SharePoint Designer users, confirm the "Security Validation" feature is enabled. As an admin, you can restart the SharePoint Timer and Administration Services. Also, update your browser and install any required SharePoint add-ons or extensions. If the issue persists after these steps, contact Microsoft Support, as there may be an underlying configuration problem with your SharePoint setup.

PaulGrant78 Also having his issue, but only for a few users in the organization, and only for specific Document libraries. This did not start until recently.
- ShaumyaCopper Contributorwe have the same issue. But have not heard anything from the colleague anymore. Either it seems to be a temporary issue that got resolved or it is still ongoing.
- Patrick0411Copper ContributorSome of our users are reporting the same issue starting on the 4th of april.
Do you have any update? Did you find the cause?- PaulGrant78Copper ContributorI changed the users permissions and it seemed to work.
