Device Update Web service Error Messages
Error Message | Resolution/Comment |
---|---|
Incorrect time format. Please specify the time using the 24 hour clock (HH:MM) |
This error occurs when you attempt to configure logging and provide the time of day in an incorrect format. Type the time again, using 24-hour time in the form HH:MM. HH (00 to 23) is the number of hours that have passed since midnight, and MM (00 to 59) is the number of full minutes that have passed since the last full hour. For example, 15:22. |
Failed to read the device updater data from host machine |
This error occurs when the Device Update Web service is unable to read the data from Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI). Administrator rights and permissions might not be configured correctly, or the Device Update Web service might not be installed correctly. Ensure that the administrator rights and permissions have been configured correctly. If administrator rights and permissions have been configured correctly and you continue to get this error, reinstall Microsoft Lync Server 2010 (for Microsoft Lync Server 2010, Standard Edition) or re-run the Enterprise Pool Wizard (for Microsoft Lync Server 2010, Enterprise Edition). |
Duplicate found and duplicates are not allowed |
This error occurs when you attempt to add a test device, and the device name already exists as a test device or the same identifier is in use for another test device. Add the test device again, and use a unique name and identifier. |
The data you have entered is incomplete, Unable to save Test Device information |
This error occurs when you attempt to add a test device without specifying the test device name or identifier. Add the test device again, and specify both a name for the device and an identifier, either the device Media Access Control (MAC) address or its serial number. |
Character is not a valid hex character |
This error occurs when you attempt to add a test device and the MAC address that you provide includes a non-hexadecimal character, which is not valid. You probably typed the MAC address incorrectly. Add the test device again, ensuring that you use the correct device MAC address. |
Failed to load the device updater help |
The Help file for the Device Update Web service either did not install correctly, or the file is corrupted. |
You have encountered an unknown error. Please contact your local product support for further assistance with this issue. |
If you do not know how to address the issue you have encountered, call Microsoft Customer Service and Support for assistance. As a preliminary step, you can attempt to perform the operation again or consult the Troubleshooting section of the product documentation. |
Name is longer than the maximum number of characters allowed |
This error occurs when you attempt to add a test device and specify a name that is longer than 50 characters. Add the test device again, providing a shorter name of 50 characters or less. |
Log days value is not in the specified range or input format is incorrect |
This error occurs when you edit log file settings, and you provide a value other than a number between 1 and 365 in the Keep log files for [ ] days box. Change the entry to a number between 1 and 365. |
