Upload errors can arise from the file, the browser, the account or the course selected. Use this checklist before repeating a submission.
Check the document
Confirm that the selected file is a PDF, opens correctly and meets the limit shown for the current OAMS window. Re-export corrupt files and review the replacement visually.
Verify course selection
Compare the displayed course against the registration record. Wrong course selection can be more serious than an upload technical error.
If the session expires
Save your original file locally and sign in again through the official portal. Avoid sharing credentials with a third party or entering passwords on an unrecognised screen.
If no acknowledgement appears
Do not assume a click means success. Check the portal status and registered email. Keep timestamps and a screenshot, then use official support if the issue persists.
Do not manufacture workarounds
A guide cannot guarantee a server fix or an IGNOU extension. When the university changes instructions, the current notice takes precedence.
Practical checklist
- Match the applicable OAMS session and registered course codes.
- Create and inspect a separate readable course PDF.
- Keep any authorised submission acknowledgement.
What to do next
Keep the relevant course and programme codes, your own confirmation records and the current session name together. Check the dated guidance and your applicable course rules before completing any university process. Use the related guides on this website for preparation; any university-only action must be completed through the authorised service.
