Invalid value for parameter error when value is in list of allowed parameters

I have some documents with a lot of paragraph styles that have been organized into groups. I have a simple script that is meant to ungroup these styles and delete the now-empty groups.
Code:
#target indesign
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
if (myDoc.paragraphStyleGroups.length > 0)
    myDoc.paragraphStyleGroups.everyItem().paragraphStyles.everyItem().move(LocationOptions.AT_END, myDoc);
    myDoc.paragraphStyleGroups.everyItem().remove();
alert("Done")
The error I receive is (emphasis mine):
JavaScript Error!
Error Number: 30477
Error String: Invalid value for parameter 'reference' of method 'move'. Expected ParagraphStyle, ParagraphStyleGroup, CharacterStyle, CharacterStyleGroup, CellStyle, CellStyleGroup, TableStyle, TableStyleGroup, Document or Application, but received Document.
As you can see, my pickle is that my value is of an allowed type. This only happens in some documents, and there's nothing that obviously distinguishes those documents from the ones in which it works.
One thing I've noticed is that the error sometimes takes a while to appear (a minute or so), but none of the styles have been moved once I click OK. So, I don't know if it's specific to one style. I doubt it, only because other documents with the same style set work.
Can anyone shed any light on what this error could mean in this context? I definitely have an activeDocument, so what could cause a Document to not be a Document?
Any help much appreciated!

Hi,
It occurs when 2 or more styles have the same name, probably.

  • What value for parameter Workspace when run function RSAQ_DELETE_QUERY?

    Run function RSAQ_DELETE_QUERY to delete a query, it requires to input a Workspace value, what's that? and which value we should input for this parameter Workspace?

    Hi Kevin,
    I think you can just leave it space. In the popup, don't enter a value and press enter.

  • ADF BC: calling SDO : Value for parameter 'findCriteria' cannot be null

    We have created a service interface from an application module. That service interface contains views that have view criteria. We have included those criteria in our services.
    From my consuming application, i added a data control from webservices by providing the WSDL of the service interface. So far so good...
    When i drop the result of a function that is bound to the view criteria to my page, i have to enter four parameters:
    fincCriteria of the Object type
    areaCode of the String type, this is a parameter we added in the view criteria using a bind variable.
    languageCode of the String type, also a custom parameter of the view criteria
    findControl of the Object type
    In my bindings i can provide the value of areaCode and languaeCode but i don't have a clue what to do with findCriteria and findControl. I left them empty and then i get followign message from the server:
    <SOAPProvider><setParameters> Value for parameter 'findCriteria' cannot be null
    <SOAPProvider><setParameters> Value for parameter 'findControl' cannot be null
    <WebServiceConnectionMessages><debugExecuteFailure> Failed to execute a SAAJ interaction.

    Found some documentation on how to use the service interface from business components and as it appears you can create entity objects based upon the wsdl from the service interface.
    Does it mean that i can only use the service interface that way and that when i have for example a dot net application, it can not use that service interface?

    The destination drive is not connected

    Hello Mohammadshamlou.  I understand that you're having some issues using your Recovery Disc.  It is giving you the error that the drive is not connected.  Is this correct?  How long have you had the notebook?
    What issue originally led you to want to try a recovery?
    The error seems to imply that it is not detecting the hard drive as this would be the most logical destination drive.  So, I feel the best thing to try first is verify that the hard drive is in proper working order.  Follow these steps and please post the result.

  • Set a default value for a radio button populated with a List of value

    Hi,
    I am using jdeveloper 11.1.1.3.0. I need to set a default value for a radio button populated with a List of value(Yes/No). Here's the selectonechoice code.
    <af:selectOneRadio value="#{bindings.Code.inputValue}"
    label="#{bindings.Code.label}"
    required="#{bindings.Code.hints.mandatory}"
    shortDesc="#{bindings.Code.hints.tooltip}"
    id="sor1" autoSubmit="true"
    valuePassThru="true" layout="horizontal">
    <f:selectItems value="#{bindings.Code.items}" id="si1"/>
    </af:selectOneRadio>
    I want to have the selectonechoice set to No by default. In the previous versions, I set the default value in the base attribute VO. But it is not working in the new version.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    this should work in JDeveloper 11.1.1.3 the same as in 11.1.1.2. If it doesn't then it is better to file a bug than to work around it

  • Invalid change to class error when deploying EJB

    We have EJBs that were built by Webgain Visual Cafe and successfully deploy
    to WLS 5.1. We then use the WLE EJB Deployer Tool to build WLE container
    classes and deploy the same EJBs in WLE 5.1.
    One EJB does not deploy in WLE. The ULOG error message is:
    133929.EA-LAWSTUC!JavaServer.517: main: IJENGINE_CAT:150: ERROR: Invalid

    jar C:\aj\ServiceEJB_WLE.jar
    Does anyone know what can cause an "invalid change to class" error when
    deploying to WLE 5.1? Especially since the EJB deploys successfully in
    WLS.
    Carl Lawstuen

    Reason: database keeps a reference of the class in JAVA$CLASS$MD5$TABLE table. This table keeps a refrence to all java classes loaded in database, and is present in each schema you deploy classes. That's the reason why if you change the application module name, you can load this classes. It instead keeps a reference if you use DROP JAVA CLASS command to drop a java class from de database. Use DROP JAVA command to clear the reference of the dropped classes when dropping it.
    You can see this table as a class dictionary of the database, and you don't have to handle this records manually.

  • ORA-01841 Error when value for date col is NULL in .dat (using SQL Loader)

    Hello Gurus,
    I have some data in .dat file which needs to be loaded into oracle table. I am using SQL * Loader to do the job. Although "NULLIF col_name =BLANKS" works for character datatype, but when value for date col is NULL then I get ORA-01841 error. I have to make NULL for all rows withour value for date column
    Early reply will be highly appreciated
    Farooq

    Hi,
    May be this problem is not with the NULLIF. The value for the date column is not in proper date format.
    create table:
    create table kk (empno number, ename varchar2(20), deptno number, hiredate date)
    Control file:
    LOAD DATA
    INFILE 'd:\kk\empdata.dat'
    insert into TABLE kk ( empno position (1:2) integer external,
    ename position(4:5) char NULLIF ename=BLANKS,
    deptno position (7:8) integer external NULLIF deptno=BLANKS,
    hiredate position (10:20) date NULLIF hiredate=BLANKS)

    20 10
    SELECT * FROM KK;

  • Where clause as expression value for parameter?

    Is it possible to put a where clause in a expression so I could use as a parameter? I have 3 documents I was going to make as available values, but not sure how to put all of this in the expression. 
    Where clause:
    where document = 'doc1'
    and sentdate = (Select max(sentdate) from Communication where document = 'doc1')

    Hi Lezgettdrunk,
    According to your description, you want to specify available values for a report parameter.
    In Reporting Services, if we want to specify the available values for a report parameter in Report Parameter Properties, we should get those values from specified values or a dataset. When we select the “Specify values” option, we can give each label corresponding
    value. When we select the “Get values from a query” option, we should select a dataset which contains documents values. In your scenario, you could create a dataset with where clause to get document values, then specify parameter available values use this
    dataset.
    Reference:
    Lesson 2: Adding Parameters to Create a List of Available Values (SSRS)
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
    Best regards,

  • Set default value for parameter fields

    Good day!
    Situation:
    1. I have 2 parameter fields in reports (dateFrom and dateTo)
    2. Before running report in ASP.NET I change value this fields (dateTo = today, dateFrom = today - 3 days)
    3.I use for this source:
    foreach (ParameterField crParam in CrystalReportSource1.ReportDocument.ParameterFields)
                            CrystalDecisions.Web.Parameter crParametr = new CrystalDecisions.Web.Parameter();
                            string ParametrName = crParam.Name;
                            crParametr.Name = ParametrName;
                              crParametr.DefaultValue = ActionReportParameter.GetParametrValue(ReportName, ParametrName);
                             CrystalReportSource1.Report.Parameters.Add(crParametr);
    4. And repurt run without request value parameter fields.
    5. BUT!!! now I need request value parameter fields before report start running - I want set default values for filelds and offer user change its before report start run.
    How do this?
    Thanks

    I believe you need to create your own parameter promt screen. Capture what the user entered and pass that to the report(?).
