This document was checked out to your local drafts folder, but the local copy could not be checked in to the site, close any application that is editing the document and try to check in again, or discard the checkout


Problem Description:
Unable to check in large excel file ( 80 mb ) in document library http://amol.sharepoint.com/sites/. The operation fails with the following error:

"This document was checked out to your local drafts folder, but the local copy could not be checked in to the site, close any application that is editing the document and try to check in again, or discard the checkout."

The same behavior is observed on other site collections as well.

Probable cause:
Missing Office Filter packs 

Resolution:
Install the Office Filter Pack 2.0 which can be downloaded from:

Microsoft Office 2010 Filter Packs

The Microsoft Filter Pack is a single point-of-distribution for Office IFilters. IFilters are components that allow search services to index content of specific file types, letting you search for content in those files. They are intended for use with Microsoft Search Services (Sharepoint, SQL, Exchange, Windows Search).

Install this product if you want to search for content in the file types listed below.

The Filter Pack includes:

Legacy Office Filter (97-2003; .doc, .ppt, .xls)
Metro Office Filter (2007; .docx, .pptx, .xlsx)
Zip Filter
OneNote filter
Visio Filter
Publisher Filter
Open Document Format Filter

Please let me know in case of any queries/questions.
I would be more than happy to help you as well as resolves your issues, Thank you
