invalid state for requested operation Explanation: A software protocol error has occurred. The error might be a value specified for a system function that is not valid at this time or a function that cannot be used at this time. For example, the error could be an attempt to read from an I/O channel that is closed. The identical read call would be valid after the channel was open. User Action: Determine the system call that returned the error. Verify that the service is being called correctly.
