Common error codes

Table 1 General-purpose error codes
Error code	Cause	Troubleshooting
400	An error occurred when the system processed the request.	Submit a ticket.
429	Traffic throttling is triggered due to frequent requests.	Submit a ticket.
460	The data submitted by the device is empty, the format of the parameter is invalid, or the number of parameters exceeds the limit.	Check the parameters based on the data formats that are described in the Alink protocol topic.
500	An unknown error occurred in IoT Platform.	Submit a ticket.
5005	An error occurred when the system queried the product information.	Check the product information in the IoT Platform console and make sure that the ProductKey is valid.
5244	An error occurred when the system queried the metadata of the LoRaWAN-based product.	Submit a ticket.
6100	An error occurred when the system queried information about the specified device.	Check the device information on the Devices page of the IoT Platform console.
6203	An error occurred when the system parsed the topic.	Submit a ticket.
6250	An error occurred when the system queried the product information.	Check the product information in the IoT Platform console and make sure that the ProductKey is valid.
6204	The specified device is disabled. You cannot perform operations on this device.	Check the device status on the Devices page of the IoT Platform console.
6450	The method parameter is missing after the custom data is parsed to the standard Alink format.	On the Device Log page of the IoT Platform console or in the on-premises log file of the device, check whether the data submitted by the device contains the method parameter.
6760	A system exception occurred.	Submit a ticket.

Table 2 Error codes for data parsing
Error code	Cause	Troubleshooting
26001	The system failed to find a parsing script.	Go to the Data Parsing page in the IoT Platform console and make sure that the script is submitted. Note You cannot run scripts that are not submitted.
26002	The script runs as expected, but the script content is invalid. For example, the script contains syntax errors.	Use the same data to test the script. Check the error message and modify the script. We recommend that you test the script on an on-premises device before you submit the script to IoT Platform.
26006	The script runs as expected. However, the script content is invalid. The script must contain the protocolToRawData and rawDataToProtocol methods. If the methods are missing, an error occurs.	Go to the Data Parsing page of the IoT Platform console and check whether the protocolToRawData and rawDataToProtocol methods exist.
26007	The script runs as expected, but the format of the response is invalid. The script must contain the protocolToRawData and rawDataToProtocol methods. The protocolToRawData method must return a byte[] array, and the rawDataToProtocol method must return a JSON object. If the response is not in the required format, an error occurs.	Test the script in the IoT Platform console or on an on-premises device and check whether the format of the response is valid.
26010	Traffic throttling is triggered due to frequent requests.	Submit a ticket.

The number of parameters that are contained in the structure is different from the number of parameters that are defined in the TSL model.
6320	The specified property cannot be found when the system queries the TSL data of the device.	Log on to the IoT Platform console and check whether the specified property exists in the TSL model. If the property does not exist, add the property.
6321	The identifier of the property, event, or service is not specified.	Submit a ticket.
6317	The parameters required in the TSL model are not configured, such as the type and specs parameters.	Submit a ticket.
6324	The input parameters do not comply with the array data specifications defined in the TSL model. If the system verifies parameters based on the TSL model, the following errors may occur: The elements in the array do not follow the array syntax that is defined in the TSL model. The number of elements in the array exceeds the maximum number that is defined in the TSL model.	Go to the product details page of the IoT Platform console. On the Define Feature tab, check the array syntax that is defined in the TSL model. View the upstream message logs to check the number of array elements in the data that is submitted by the device.
6325	The data types of the elements in the array are not supported by IoT Platform. Only the following data types of elements are supported: integer, 32-bit floating-point, 64-bit floating-point, double, text, and structure.	Check whether the data types of the elements are supported by IoT Platform.

The following table describes the causes of and solutions to the errors that may occur when a sub-device goes online or offline. For more information about other error codes, see the "Common error codes" section of this topic.

Error code	Cause	Troubleshooting
427	The device is forced to go offline because the device certificate is used by another device. IoT Platform identifies a device only based on the device certificate (ProductKey, DeviceName, and DeviceSecret). The same device certificate is burned on multiple devices. The network or power supply of the device is unstable. The device immediately reconnects to IoT Platform after an instantaneous network outage or power failure. In this case, IoT Platform identifies the reconnected device as a new device. Even if an error message is returned, the device can work as expected.	Go to the Device Details page in the console and check the time when the device was last connected to IoT Platform. You can determine whether the same device certificate information is used to connect another device to IoT Platform. Check whether the network environment is stable by using one of the following methods: Test the network latency. For more information, see Why does message delivery from IoT Platform time out? Ping the server address on the device. Test the latency by using a network diagnostics tool.
428	The number of sub-devices that you added to the specified gateway exceeds the limit. For more information, see Limits.	Check the number of sub-devices that are added to the gateway.
521	The device is deleted.	Go to the Devices page in the IoT Platform console and check whether the device is deleted.
522	The device is disabled.	Check the device status on the Devices page of the IoT Platform console.
520	An error occurred in the session between the sub-device and IoT Platform. The specified session does not exist because the sub-device is not connected to IoT Platform or the sub-device is disconnected from IoT Platform. The session exists, but the session is not established by using the current gateway.
6287	An error occurred when the system verified the signature based on the ProductSecret or DeviceSecret.	Use a supported algorithm to calculate a signature and then verify the signature. For more information, see Connect or disconnect sub-devices.
1914	The number of sub-devices that you want to connect to or disconnect from IoT Platform at the same time exceeds the limit. You can connect or disconnect up to five sub-devices at the same time.	Check whether the number of sub-devices that you want to connect to or disconnect from IoT Platform at the same time exceeds the limit.
1913	The gateway is disconnected from IoT Platform.	Check the reason why the gateway is disconnected from IoT Platform based on logs.
9242	The number of messages that are submitted by the gateway for the sub-devices at a time exceeds the limit, which is 50.	Check whether the number of submitted sub-device messages exceeds the limit.
9241	When you use a gateway to connect a sub-device to IoT Platform, you cannot modify the device type of an online device. For more information about device types, see the conntype parameter in Connect an MQTT client to IoT Platform.	Check whether the gateway and sub-device are online.
9240	When you connect or disconnect multiple sub-devices, the number of sub-devices in a gateway in status-related mode exceeds the limit, which is 10,000.	Check whether the number of sub-devices that you want to connect to or disconnect from IoT Platform at a time exceeds the limit.
