SYSTEM.TROUBLESHOOTING

Why is the portal rejecting my upload?

Most application rejections are caused by hidden dimension or background mismatches rather than KB limits alone.

Issue 1

Upload rejected as 'File size less than 20KB'

Cause: WhatsApp transmission or excessive compression dropped file below 20KB.

Fix: ToolKB targets 45KB to stay comfortably above the 20KB lower limit.

Issue 2

Signature upload says 'Dimensions exceed 400x200 pixels'

Cause: Uploading raw crop from high-resolution phone camera.

Fix: Use the SSC Signature preset to automatically downscale to exactly 400 × 200 px.

Issue 3

Signature rejected for all-capital letters

Cause: Block letters are prohibited by SSC recruitment rules.

Fix: Re-sign in natural running handwriting with black ink.

Issue 4

Live capture vs uploaded photo confusion

Cause: SSC portal now uses live capture for some exams, while CHSL/GD still require file upload.

Fix: Check your specific CHSL tier notification; ToolKB formats the file for upload modules.

Issue 5

Dark shadow behind head or neck

Cause: Flash too close to wall creating harsh shadow line.

Fix: Step 2 feet away from white wall in soft daylight and retake photo.

Issue 6

Browser upload times out on ssc.gov.in

Cause: Heavy uncompressed files stalling on high-traffic SSC servers.

Fix: Pre-compressing your file to 42KB ensures instant submission even on 2G/3G mobile networks.
