You have a macro, that switches to a screen that doesn't exists please check all you macros for the switchToScreen event and make sure the targets screens names are correct

In the [Server Configuration] -> [Hotkeys] tab, make sure all the hotkeys that have switchToScreen events target an existing screen


Following example shows that my Ctrl+a hotkey will switch to the screen called Bahamut. If the screen called Bahamut didn't exist in the [Screens and Links] tab I would get your error until I either updated the hotkey to an existing screen, deleted the hotkey, or added the missing screen to the [Screens and Links] tab

Hi!

Just ran into this one myself. Any possibility of adding some better output at info level for this one? It's pretty cryptic right now:

Any output mentioning that there is something wrong with the keybinds or macros would help.

Thanks,
