This error happens for both web content and documents and media. It also happens as long as there is one document/article that is in pending status. That will prevent the folder from being published altogether even if it has other approved assets in it.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a folder
2. Edit folder to have workflow enabled (single approver)
3. Add a document to the folder and assert it is ready for publication
4. Publish the folder (SAP)

Expected result: Folder gets published (but the pending document should not be published)
Actual result: There is a publish to live error and the folder is not published at all.

An unexpected error occurred with the publication process. Please check your portal and publishing configuration.
