In case of you got “The server was unable to save the form at this time. Please try again.” for all users.

  • SharePoint Search Host Controller service may need to restart to free up some memory space.
  • Anonymous Authentication was disabled in IIS.
  • “minFreeMemoryPercentageToActivateService” attribute is not set to serviceHostingEnvironment Tag in Web.Config.
  • The farm wasn’t updated with at least March 2013 PU / Service Pack 1.

In case of you got “The server was unable to save the form at this time. Please try again.” for a specific user.

  • If your list has unique permissions and a user/group has permissions only on that list and has limited or no access at the site level, then you run into this error.

For more details, please check The server was unable to save the form at this time. Please try again in SharePoint 2013

There was one script running on server, which was consuming lots of memory. Killed it and nailed it!

Clearly RAM issue.

This issue can also occur with low server memory. So just close the unwanted applications running to clear out the memory and try.

see the link for details: http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/blogs/sharepoint-2013-error-the-server-was-unable-to-save-the-form-at-this-time-please-try-again

I had to remove the following line from the ServiceModel in web.config in order for this error to disappear:

multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true"

Originally I applied this one to fix another error as suggested in this article: WCF service startup error "This collection already contains an address with scheme http"

try to save after restarting the timer job service and resetting IIS server:

  • you have to restart the timer job service from services.msc on the SharePoint server.
  • you can reset the IIS on server using command prompt: IISRESET

hope it helps.

It sounds that this is because off low memory. pay attention that the minimum requirment for sharepoint is 16G and if sql server runs on the same server, you will need more than 16G ram. Add your memory and chack again. enter image description here
