PowerAuth Server Error Codes

PowerAuth Server may return following errors:

Error Code Error Message Note
ERR0000 Unknown error occurred. In case any unknown or low-level java error occurs, this exception is thrown. The original exception info is returned in the message
ERR0001 No user ID was set. Method, that requires user ID, was not provided with one.
ERR0002 No application ID was set. Method, that requires an application ID, was not provided with one.
ERR0003 No master server key pair configured in database. There is an issue with the database - an application does not have any master server key pair associated. This can happen only when manipulating with database manually or when there is a database consistency error. Use PowerAuth Admin to avoid this error.
ERR0004 Master server key pair contains private key in incorrect format. There is an issue with the database - an application has an associated master server key pair, but the format of this key is incorrect. This can happen only when manipulating with database manually or when there is a database consistency error. User PowerAuth Admin to avoid this error.
ERR0005 Too many failed attempts to generate activation ID. In order to uniquely identify an activation, a random UUID (level 4) is generated as an activation ID. In a very unlikely case of a collision, server attempts to generate a new one, at most 10 times. When the new activation ID generation fails 10 times, this error is returned.
ERR0006 Too many failed attempts to generate activation code. In order to uniquely identify an activation during the activation process, a random activation code (4x5 characters in Base32 encoding) is generated. In a very unlikely case of a collision, server attempts to generate a new one, at most 10 times. When the new activation code generation fails 10 times, this error is returned.
ERR0007 This activation is already expired. In case activation is in the state when it cannot be completed. This may be either due to time-out (activation was not committed fast enough) or in case someone tries to commit random / expired / blocked activations.
ERR0008 Incorrect activation state. Activation state is invalid. For instance, when client attempts to commit an activation in any other state than PENDING_COMMIT, or when client attempts to commit a non-existing activation.
ERR0009 Activation with given activation ID was not found. Service didn’t find an activation with given ID.
ERR0010 Key with invalid format was provided. In case the cryptographic method in initActivation method was provided with a key in incorrect format.
ERR0011 Invalid input parameter format. Provided data was not in a correct format. For example, values that were expected to be Base64 encoded or dates in specific date format were invalid.
ERR0012 Invalid Signature Provided. Signature verification failed since the verification process computed a different signature than the one that was provided by a client.
ERR0013 Unable to compute signature. It was not possible to compute the signature.
ERR0014 Invalid URL format. Provided URL has invalid format.
ERR0015 Invalid application. Application or application version does not exist.
ERR0016 Invalid token. Token with given token ID does not exist. Obsolete error code - the error is handled by response.
ERR0017 Encryption failed. Data encryption failed.
ERR0018 Decryption failed. Data decryption failed.
ERR0019 Unable to generate token. Token was not successfully generated.
ERR0020 Missing master DB encryption key. Master DB encryption key is not configured.
ERR0021 Unsupported encryption mode. Configured encryption mode is not supported.
ERR0022 Generic cryptography error. Unspecified cryptography error occurred.
ERR0023 Invalid cryptography provider. Cryptography provider is initialized incorrectly.
ERR0024 Invalid request. The request sent to the server is invalid.
ERR0025 Recovery code already exists. Could not generate recovery code because a valid recovery code already exists.
ERR0026 Too many failed attempts to generate recovery code. In order to uniquely identify a recovery code, a random recovery code (4x5 characters in Base32 encoding) is generated. In a very unlikely case of a collision, server attempts to generate a new one, at most 10 times. When the new recovery code generation fails 10 times, this error is returned.
ERR0027 Recovery code was not found. An action was attempted on a recovery code which does not exist.
ERR0028 Invalid recovery code. Used combination of recovery code and PUK is invalid.
ERR0029 Invalid recovery configuration. Recovery code configuration is missing or incomplete.
ERR0030 Token timestamp is too old. In case token validation fails due to token being no longer valid.
ERR0031 Activation OTP doesn’t match value stored in database, or the OTP value is provided for the wrong validation step.  
ERR0032 Activation OTP operation is performed for the wrong validation mode.  
ERR0033 Operation template was not found.  
ERR0034 Operation was not found.  
ERR0035 Too many failed attempts to generate operation ID.  
ERR0036 Operation state is invalid for the requested change.  
ERR0037 Operation cannot be approved.  
ERR0038 Operation cannot be rejected.  
ERR0039 Operation template already exists.  
ERR0040 Activation cannot be created with the specified properties.  
ERR0041 Operation related error occurred.  
ERR0042 Operation template related error occurred.  

For each of these issues, more details about the specific nature and cause can be found in the server log.
