Error Message: 19033-ERROR: $multi_valued() Subscript Goes Beyond Range (255818)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Metadirectory Services 2.1

This article was previously published under Q255818

SYMPTOMS

The management agent (MA) log may incorrectly report the following error message:
19033-ERROR: $multi_valued() subscript goes beyond range 12121 in template [] in the statement starting at line XX
Both the range (512) value and the line number are reported incorrectly. The line number is reported incorrectly if the $multi_valued function follows comments in the template.

CAUSE

The error message occurs with the $multi_valued function. If the first parameter contains all numbers, it is assumed to be a subscript number rather than a string value to search for. If the first parameter contains letters, it is considered a string and you do not receive the error message.

RESOLUTION

A partial resolution is to remove the double comments before the function to have the correct line reported. The range value continues to be incorrectly reported.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
