Re: IWS "Low-order nibble of the byte at array offset 526 is not valid. Byte value: 00."

Most likely case is output variables that have not been initialized. It
should be a habit before starting anything that output variables are
initialized/cleared.

The data you are trying to insert into a filed is not valid or

compatible

with the field.

What are you sending in and how is the structure defined?

I can't figure out what is happening/wrong, nor do I know where the
error message is coming from, nor where to look for the answer.

"Low-order nibble of the byte at array offset 526 is not valid. Byte
value: 00."

I have a service program which reads a data record and loads the field

values into a data structure defined like the record. That data
structure is processed by an IWS wizard and the output is supplied as

a

web service. When the web service is accessed from the web I get that

error message.

I am suspicious that the issue revolves about issues with packed

fields

and zoned fields but can't prove it one way or another.
