Symptom

The Apply component in VSResponse.sendResponse(), has an invalid last action : -1

Cause

IF Alternate Data Streams (ADS) exist on both the source and target, the ADS is longer than the VerifySize, and the only difference between them is the attributes of the file are different, then the error message will appear.

When the difference between the attributes on the source file and target file is small and the Archive attribute is set on the target file but not set on the source file, this error message can occur. This can also occur when a backup application is run on the source file, as these applications sometings clear the archive attribute and the change is not replicated. Additionally, this can also occur if the Archive attribute is set on the target when it is not set on the source.

Resolution

In order to avoid The Apply component in VSResponse.sendResponse(), has an invalid last action : -1 exception, which will stop replication, make the following modifications to the following registry keys:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JavaSoft\Prefs\Neverfail\current\/New/File/State/Mgr]

Change /Wan/Verify/Size="128" to /Wan/Verify/Size="1048576"
Change /Lan/Verify/Size="4096" to /Lan/Verify/Size="1048576"

This modification to the registry will cause files under 1MB to be synchronized but not verified thereby preventing the error message.

Note: The will cause the Full System Check to take a bit longer but it will complete.
