SL_REMAPPING_SP_PUB_TIMER_NAME_SIZE_TOO_BIG

What the protected licensing code means

SL_REMAPPING_SP_PUB_TIMER_NAME_SIZE_TOO_BIG (0xC004D30D) is emitted by the trusted store and secure-timer layer. It marks a specific point inside the protected state store that keeps namespaced entries, attributes, secure timers, trusted time, hardware binding, rearm state and integrity breadcrumbs: the secure-timer name exceeds the supported encoded length.

This distinction matters because the timer definition is rejected before any deadline is stored. A later “not licensed” state should not replace the first exact HRESULT in logs.

A reproducible troubleshooting path

  1. Record this result, 0xC004D30D, the exact API or service operation, and the affected product or protected object.
  2. Prove the specific condition: record timer name length, encoding, namespace and caller version.
  3. Compare the neighboring results below and identify which condition actually applies.

Where it sits in the licensing pipeline

Trusted-store results concern protected persistent state; deleting the store can erase the evidence that distinguishes missing data, capacity, access, binding and integrity failures. To verify this, record timer name length, encoding, namespace and caller version.

A positive trusted-time or rearm/recreation result must be interpreted by HRESULT severity and the subsequent license state, not by treating every nonzero value as a fatal error.

Minimum data for a reliable diagnosis

  • requested and actual data size
  • trusted time, timer deadline and hardware-binding state
  • tamper/recreation/rearm events in chronological order
  • namespace, entry key and attribute name
  • entry/timer flags including read-only state

Recovery while preserving licensing evidence

Use the compact timer identifier defined by the supported schema.

Representative case: A caller constructs a timer name from an unbounded user-visible description.

Adjacent states in the same subsystem

ResultDifferent condition
SL_REMAPPING_SP_PUB_TIMER_EXPIREDCompared with this result, trusted time has passed the secure timer’s protected deadline.
SL_REMAPPING_SP_PUB_TS_FULLCompared with this result, the trusted store has no capacity for the requested additional protected state.
SL_REMAPPING_SP_PUB_TIMER_NOT_FOUNDCompared with it, the named secure timer is absent from the selected namespace.

Actions that usually destroy useful evidence

  • Do not manually delete protected store files before collecting state and event evidence.
  • Do not use rearm as a generic repair for unrelated activation or integrity errors.
