Well, you gave no indicate of what you were doing or context of the message or version of the product or DB you are using or .....
So, no indication of anything other than an out of context error message. This makes it a bit difficult to help. But, the only place I have been able to find a reference to this error (the text is a bit misleading as it was originally used for a flat file DB case and was shared for this other use without fixing the text of the message) is when there is a query qualifier of some type that has a reference to a status history field and the syntax of the portion of the qualifier structure for the status history reference is incorrect. Now, if you were writing a API program and issuing a call with a qualifier, it would indicate that you have not correctly loaded the Status History section of the Arithmetic Operation Qualifier structure. If you are getting this at import time, it would indicate that the format of some qualifier (an active link or filter run if or a set field or push fields qualifier or ...) is corrupted. There is a status history reference and the format of the serialized representation of the qualifier cannot be decoded. If you are getting this at AR System server startup, it is the same idea as import but it means that one of the definitions somewhere in your metadata tables has a bad qualifier. If you are getting this somewhere else, it is an indication of something around the area where you are getting the error has a bad qualifier regarding a reference to Status History. Of course, the qualification could be messed up so that the system THINKS there is a status history reference but it is really some other corruption of the qualifier definition. Anyway, I hope this helps. It is hard to help further without context.
