Hey Anon, This forum is meant for more general, high-level discussion of design patterns, the platform and services, and so specific technical issue requests like this should more properly belong over at Stack Overflow. We monitor this forum and our tags on Stack Overflow, and there are probably a greater volume of users there anyways, so in future, be sure to use Stack.
For now, though, I can say that I've never seen such a message. Maybe you could try googling the exact text content of the error message? I tried to search the internet and found only this post, so perhaps what you wrote isn't the same as the error.
