 Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.

Environment

SAP Jam

Cause

Your png image was edited by an image editor which added the 'iCCP' chunk to the image and SAP Jam does not permit images with an 'iCCP' chunk

  • SAP Jam uses the `tempfile` lib to process these upload images.
  • This lib depends on an C++ lib called `libpng` to check png images & it will throw warning "iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile" when the png image contains an `iCCP` chunk.

Resolution

Upload another version of the photo. Taking a screenshot of your current image and saving it as a .jpg or .png file will work
