Here is a related question.
Why do I get this error even when I have not installed SQL Server replication ? The strangest thing is, when I run the fix
sp_configure 'max text repl size', 2147483647
Go
RECONFIGURE
GO
it works and I no longer get this error
Are you using Change Data Capture?
From How to: Configure the max text repl size Option (SQL Server Management Studio)
This option applies to transactional replication and Change Data Capture
