 Cause


The process may be actually stuck, or the email address (Invited users) may be disabled, or a security policy may not be set to allow automatic to approve external email addresses.

Resolution


 

Solution 1:

Try close the file share dialog and try again.

Solution 2

Ask your oFS FileCloud site admin to check to and see if the email address that you are trying to share files with is disabled in the back-end, or check to see if security policies are not in place for automatic approval of external email addresses.
