NumberDescription
400 Error

The file specified for a form does not hold a form definition.

The file that was expected to hold the definition of a form does not hold a form definition or is incorrectly formatted. The error is usually caused by a manual change to one or more BMC Remedy AR System database definition files. If you manually changed a file, the change is invalid. If you did not change a file, this is an unexpected error.

401 Error

Form definition in the source file is invalid.

The file contains a form definition, but it is not the expected form definition. The error is usually caused by a manual change to one or more BMC Remedy AR System database definition files. If you manually changed a file, the change is invalid.

402 Error

Incorrect format in the definition file.

A format error was detected in a definition file. This error is usually caused by a manual change to one or more BMC Remedy AR System database definition files. The error message contains the error. If you manually changed a file, the change is invalid.

403 Error

The form definition file field count does not match number of fields in the file.

The number of fields defined for the form does not match the count in the form header definition. This error is usually caused by a manual change to one or more of BMC Remedy AR System database definition files. If you manually changed a file, the change is invalid. If you did not change a file, this is an unexpected error.

404 Error

Field ID is in the core field range but is not a defined core field.

A field ID in the core range was found, but this is not one of the defined core fields. The ID is, therefore, an illegal ID and cannot be used.

405 Error

A core definition from the definition file is incorrect.

The definition of one of the core fields is inconsistent with the rules defined for that core field. This error is usually caused by a manual change to the form definition file. If the definition file was changed, the change is invalid.

406 Error

One of the core fields is missing from the form file definition.

The form definition being loaded is missing one or more of the required core fields. These fields must be present as part of the definition of the form. You may or may not use them, but they must be present. This error is usually caused by a manual change to the form definition file. If the definition file was changed, the change is invalid.

407 Error

Duplicate field/VUI ID in the form definition.

The form definition contains a duplicate definition for one or more fields. A field or VUI ID must be unique within a form. This error is usually caused by a manual change to the form definition file. If the definition file was changed, the change is invalid.

408 Error

Selection data type requires a selection specification.

All fields with a Selection data type must define a list of one or more values that define the selection for that field. A definition was found without that selection definition. This error is usually caused by a manual change to the definition. If the definition was changed, the change is invalid.

409 Error

No definition is in the file.

The structure file does not contain definitions. This error is usually caused by a manual deletion of the contents of a structure file. If the file was deleted, it must be restored from a backup.

410 Error

The filter definition cannot be found in the specified file.

A file specified as holding the definition of a filter does not contain a filter definition. This error is usually caused by a manual deletion of the contents of a structure file. If the file was deleted, it must be restored from a backup.

411 ErrorThe command definition cannot be found in the specified file.
412 Error

The import file is in an incorrect format.

The import file contains data that is not part of a legal structure definition supported by BMC Remedy AR System. Remove the definition file of all lines that are not part of a legal definition, and then retry the import operation.

413 Error

The Active link definition cannot be found in the specified file.

A file specified as holding the definition of an active link does not contain the definition. This error is usually caused by a manual deletion of the contents of a structure file. If the file was deleted, it must be restored from a backup.

414 Error

The character menu definition cannot be found in the specified file.

A file specified as holding the definition of a character menu does not contain the definition. This error is usually caused by a manual deletion of the contents of a structure file. If the file was deleted, it must be restored from a backup.

415 Error

The escalation definition cannot be found in the specified file.

A file specified as holding the definition of an escalation does not contain the definition. This error is usually caused by a manual deletion of the contents of a structure file. If the file was deleted, it must be restored from a backup.

416 Error

The distributed mapping definition cannot be found in the specified file.

A file specified as holding the definition of a distributed mapping does not contain the definition. This error is usually caused by a manual deletion of the contents of a structure file. If the file was deleted, it must be restored from a backup.

417 Error

The group name is not a defined group.

The system was translating the contents of a group (for example, from the Group List [field ID 104], Assignee Group [field ID 112], or a dynamic field) from a text string into the internal format of a sequence of IDs. The operation was occurring during the processing of a filter or escalation. During the conversion, an error occurred. The likely cause of the failure is that the system encounters a name that is not a defined group.

418 Error

Incomplete join form definition.

During import, a form defined itself as a join form. However, one or more key pieces of information (such as the type of join or the primary or secondary form) are missing. The join form definition depends on complete information about the join, so it cannot be created.

419 Error

Incomplete view form definition.

During import, a form defined itself as a view form. However, one or more key pieces of information (such as the table being referenced) are missing. The view form definition depends on complete information about the view, so it cannot be created.

420 Error

Invalid field type.

With a join or view form, the field type specified in the field definition for a data field is not appropriate for that form type. For example, if the form is a join form, all data fields must be defined with a field type indicating that they are a join field because no base data fields exist when you are working with a join form.

421 Error

Incomplete field mapping definition.

The field mapping of this join or view form is not consistent with the type of the form.

422 Error

Unrecognized escalation action type.

The type of the action attached to the escalation is outside the allowed range of types.

423 Error

The container definition cannot be found in the specified file.

The file contains a container definition, but it is not the expected definition. Make sure that you did not change the name of the file prior to import.

424 Error

Push fields actions that affect entries in other forms can only affect forms on the same server in a filter/escalation.

In filters and escalations, you cannot use a Push Fields action to push values to forms residing on different servers. For more information about Push Fields actions, filters, and escalations, see Push Fields action.

429 Error

The VUI definition can not be found in the specified file.

The import file does not hold a view definition.

430 Error

Field ID exceeds the maximum allowed value.

The value supplied for the field identifier exceeds the maximum allowed value. Specify a value less than or equal to 2147483647.

431 Error

Field of this type cannot be included in a multi-column index.

A multi-column index was specified that includes a field type that is not allowed, such as a currency field. Remove any fields that are not allowed from the index specification

432 Error

Currency field has too many functional currencies to allow indexing.

A currency field selected for indexing has too many functional currencies to index each column without exceeding the index limit of 16. Do not index the field, or remove some functional currencies from the field definition.

433 Error

Not a lock block definition.

The definition file is invalid. It is possibly corrupted. Verify the validity of the export definition file and re-export it if necessary.

434 Error

An invalid or a corrupt lock block definition was skipped.

A portion of the definition file was skipped because it is invalid or corrupted. Verify the validity of the export definition file and re-export it if necessary.

435 Error

450 Warning

Cannot find the report definition file.

The operation will continue without the file identified. When creating or updating an active link, a macro action or else definition contains a reference to a report file that does not exist. The active link is created or updated without the file. If it is replayed, the user receives a warning about the missing file. Locate the expected file, and put it in the proper location; then, reselect the macro in the action, and update the active link definition to have the file included in the active link.

451 Warning

Report definition file failed to load into server. The operation will continue without this file.
