Err Msg: Variable is Undefined (0x1F4, Source = 'Microsoft VBScript Runtime Error') (198830)

SYMPTOMS

When you create a new content type in which the Content Store is bound to a Membership instance via the Web Administration tool, the following error occurs:

Variable is undefined (0x1F4, Source = 'Microsoft VBScript runtime error')

However, the content type does get created.

CAUSE

This behavior is by design.

This issue can occur when Anonymous access to the LDAP Service instance is selected when you create the new Membership Authentication Instance.

RESOLUTION

Use one of the following workarounds to resolve this issue:

Set the Microsoft Directory Manager to the proper instance by checking the property.
1. Select ou=Members.
2. Go to the property of cn=Administrator (assuming this is the logon user).
3. On the Groups tab, click Add.
4. Select ou=ntgroups.
5. Click Add All.
6. Click OK for all.
Note: You may need to restart the computer for the change to take affect.
Enable Anonymous access to the LDAP Service instance.
When you create a Content Store, customize the Makecm.vbs script before running it. For more information on this, please see the "Content Management - Advanced Features" section in the online documentation.
Use the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) to create, modify, and delete content types for your Content Stores. This is located in the Membership Directory Manager, under ou=Admin, ou=Other, and ou=DocumentClasses.
