This article describes a possible issue that could lead to this error message.

InformationPermanent link for this heading

The error message "Call was rejected by callee" is returned to Fabasoft Folio by Microsoft Words OLE component. Microsoft Word OLE may stop working in the case that too many temporary files are located in a Microsoft Word temporary folder.

Fabasoft uses Microsoft OLE to open and handle Microsoft Word (and other Microsoft Office applications) without user interaction on the Fabasoft Folio Conversion servers. Microsoft Word creates temporary files that are deleted after processing. In the case that Microsoft Word stalls with a document that cannot be handled by Fabasoft Folio (for example a password protected document), Fabasoft Folio will kill the Microsoft Word process after a given timeout (default 60 seconds). Microsoft Word then will not delete the temporary file. If too many temporary files are stored, Microsoft Word rejects the processing with the error "call was rejected by callee".
