A parameter was specified that contains a numItems value that indicates one or more items for the parameter, but the value field in the structure is a NULL pointer. If items exist, the value field must point to the items. If no items exist, the numItems field must be initialized to 0.

166 Error

The data type specified does not match the field's data type.

The data type specified as the default value for the field does not match the data type defined for the field. The data type of the default value must be compatible with the data type of the field.

  • A default value of the same type as the field is always compatible.
  • A default value of AR_DATA_TYPE_NULL is always compatible with any data type.
  • A keyword value is compatible with the data type that matches the type of the resulting keyword (for example, 12/25/01 is compatible with AR_DATA_TYPE_TIME, but not with AR_DATA_TYPE_CHAR ).
  • All other combinations are illegal.
167 Error

The limit specified for the field does not match the field's data type.

The data type specified in the limit for the field does not match the data type defined for the field. The data type in the limit structure must be compatible with the data type of the field.

  • A default value of the same type as the field is always compatible.
  • A default value of AR_FIELD_LIMIT_NONE is always compatible with any data type. It indicates that the field has no limit.
  • All other combinations are illegal.
168 Error

One of the field/value assignments in the set filter/active link/escalation definition is invalid.

An error occurred with one of the field or value assignments in the Set Fields action of a filter, active link, or escalation definition. An associated message provides details. Usually, the problem is an attempt to define an assignment between incompatible data types or to nonexistent fields.

169 Error

Execution order value is out of range.

The execution order field of the filter, active link, or escalation definition contains a value out of range. The legal range for the execution order is 0 to 1000, with items at lower values being performed before items at higher values.

170 Error

The tag that specifies whether you want the user name or time stamp for a status history value is not a recognized value. The only supported values for the tag field are AR_STAT_HISTORY_USER and AR_STAT_HISTORY_TIME.

171 Error

The specified status field value is out of range.

The status field value you specified does not match a defined status for this form. The selection value specified is a 0-based, positional index into the list of states defined for Status.

172 Error

The required service is not available.

The Windows Service was not started. This could be due to the service being stopped by the administrator prior to completion of its startup tasks or an error occurred that prevented the service from starting. Consult the Application Event Log for details concerning any errors that occurred.

173 Error

Language specified in the control record not recognized — using default on server.

The language you specified for the system is not recognized by the server. If you are coding directly to the API, the language field is in the control record passed to each call. To use the default language, leave the language buffer empty (set to an empty string). You can also set the language to the default language of C to use the standard language defaults. You can set this value to any language your environment supports. If you are running an BMC Remedy AR System tool, the language to use is picked up from the LANG environment variable. Verify the setting of that variable and correct it if it is wrong (or delete it if the default language is sufficient).

174 Error

Display type specified is incompatible for the data type.

The display type value specified for this field is incompatible with the field's data type. Choose an appropriate display type:

  • Display type AR_DISPLAY_TYPE_CHECKBOX supports data type AR_DATA_TYPE_ENUM.
  • Display type AR_DISPLAY_TYPE_CHOICE supports data type AR_DATA_TYPE_ENUM.
  • Display type AR_DISPLAY_TYPE_NUMTEXT supports data type AR_DATA_TYPE_INTEGER.
  • Display type AR_DISPLAY_TYPE_TEXT supports data types AR_DATA_TYPE_INTEGER, AR_DATA_TYPE_REAL, AR_DATA_TYPE_CHAR, AR_DATA_TYPE_DIARY, AR_DATA_TYPE_ENUM, and AR_DATA_TYPE_TIME.
175 Error

The Number of Rows value of the display parameter is out of range.

The length or numRows (number of rows) value for the display parameter is not within the allowed range. For fields displayed as TYPE_TEXT, neither the length nor NumRows field should be zero (0). The length field specifies the width of the control, and the NumRows field specifies the number of rows of data that are displayed for the field. For fields displayed as TYPE_NUMTEXT, the length field must not be zero (0). The length specifies the width of the control, and the number of rows value is ignored. For fields displayed as TYPE_CHECKBOX or TYPE_CHOICE, the numRows field must not be zero (0). The numRows field specifies how many rows the check boxes or choices must be displayed in, and the length value is ignored.

176 Error

Duplicate name in the selection list.

In the list of selection or bitmask values, the same name is used for two separate states. Rename one of the duplicate selection values so that each selection or bitmask value has a unique label.

177 Error

Change permission cannot be given to a view-only group.

You specified that a group must be given change access to a field; however, the group is a View group and cannot be granted change permission. You can assign only view permission to the field for this group.

178 Error

Field ID cannot be empty, please provide an field id or enter 0 for the system to assign a value.

The field ID parameter is a NULL pointer. It must be a pointer to a field ID. To assign the ID for a field, load this parameter with the value. If you want the system to assign an ID, assign this field to 0, and the system assigns a value and returns the result in this field.

179 Error

Pattern in a character limit is invalid.

The pattern specified for a limit to the character field is illegal. Typically, the pattern either has an opening bracket ([ ) with no matching closing bracket (] ) or has a range within double brackets ([ ] ) with the starting value greater than the ending value (for example, [c-a] ).

180 ErrorSpecified length for a character type is longer than the maximum allowed length. The value specified as the default value for a character field is longer than the maximum allowed by AR_MAX_DEFAULT_SIZE (256 bytes). Verify the default value, and retry the operation. Character strings must be terminated by a 0 (zero) character.
181 Error

The ID specified for this field is in the reserved field range.

The ID for the specified field falls within the reserved range of field IDs. This is likely caused by a programming error. An API call did not set the flag indicating that it allows creation of fields in this range. API calls must set that flag to allow the creation of a field with this ID. Alternatively, an API call can set the flag to 0 to have the system generate a unique ID. The system returns the assigned ID.

182 Error

Too many actions have been specified for this filter/active link/escalation.

The filter, active link, or escalation has more actions defined than the maximum allowed by the system (25). Reduce the number of actions by combining several action steps into one or by creating a second filter, active link, or escalation and separating some of the actions into the new filter, active link, or escalation.

183 Error

Duplicate group ID was specified in permission list.

You specified a group ID more than once in the permission list you are sending to the system. Any given ID can be specified only once with the permissions allowed for that group field. Remove the duplicate reference.

184 Error

Quotation mark cannot be used in Entry ID field.

The default value for the Request ID field (used as the prefix for the IDs generated for each entry or request) cannot contain a single quotation mark character. Specify a default value that does not contain a quotation mark character.

185 Error

Cannot assign default value to system core or reserved fields (except Entry ID).

You assigned a default value to a system-controlled BMC Remedy AR System core field (Request ID, Create Date, Last Modified by, Modified Date, or Status History field). The only system-controlled core field that can have a default value assigned to it is the Request ID field, where the default is used as a prefix to the ID. The other BMC Remedy AR System system-controlled core fields are automatically updated by the system, so no default value is needed or allowed.

186 Error

Cannot assign character menu to system core or reserved fields.

You assigned a character menu to a system-controlled BMC Remedy AR System core field (Request ID, Create Date, Last Modified By, Modified Date, or Status History field). The system-controlled core fields cannot be assigned values by the user, so a character menu is not needed or allowed.

187 Error

Execute mask parameter is out of bounds.

The execute mask is a bitmask of the conditions under which an active link executes. The value you specified includes bit settings outside the legal range of conditions under which you can execute an active link. The bitmask can be created by totaling the set of defines that represent the conditions under which you want the active link to execute.

188 Error

On Return or On Menu choice condition does not have a Field specified.

The active link you defined has the On Return or On Menu choice condition set in the execute mask, but no setting indicates which field to attach the operation to. Specify the field where you want to attach the active link action.

189 Error

Active link does not have an action defined.

The action field for an active link is either NULL or empty. An active link must define at least one action to be performed.

190 Error

Unrecognized active link action type.

One of the active link action codes is not recognized. Verify that the #define statements in the include file ar.h have a list of all active link action type tags.

191 ErrorUnrecognized assign type. The assign type tag is not recognized. Verify that the #define statements in the include file ar.h have a list of all assign type tags.
192 Error

Field/assignment list item is empty.

The field or assignment list for an active link Set Fields action is either NULL or empty. A Set Fields action must define at least one field to be assigned a value.

193 Error

One or more fields, or assignment items in the field or assignment list, encountered an error.

One or more fields, or assignment items in the field or assignment list, encountered an error. See the associated message for details.

194 Error

The ARAssignFieldStruct tag for filter/active link/escalation is not recognized.

The ARAssignFieldStruct structure tag is not recognized. Verify that the #define statements in the include file ar.h have a list of all ARAssignFieldStruct tags.

195 Error

Filter/active link/escalation 'set field' definition is missing.

The field definition in the field or assignment structure is set to NULL. Supply a field definition value in this structure.

196 Error

Macro branch of active link action must include both a name and macro text.

The definition of a macro action must include both a name and the text of the macro to execute. One or the other is either NULL or an empty string.

197 Error

Unrecognized keyword.

A keyword type value was specified, but the keyword identifier was not recognized. View the #define statements in the include file #define for a list of IDs for all supported keywords.

198 Error

Cannot use the $DEFAULT$ keyword as a default value or in a qualification.

The keyword $DEFAULT$ cannot be used when specifying the default value for a field. The $DEFAULT$ keyword indicates that the default value must be used for the value; using it as the default itself creates a self-reference that cannot be resolved. The keyword $DEFAULT$ cannot be used when specifying a qualification, whether in an active link, filter, or escalation, or on the qualification bar. If an arithmetic operation is involved or the operation is a complex one, it is not clear which field's default value is being referenced under all conditions. Therefore, the $DEFAULT$ keyword is disallowed in qualifications.

199 Error

Missing name for a macro parameter in the active link action.

A name field in the list of macro parameters is either NULL or blank. When specifying macro parameters, supply the parameter name for the value you are specifying. You can omit parameters from the list of parameters, but if they are included on the list, you must provide a name.
