ERROR_MRM_DIRECT_REF_TO_NON_DEFAULT_RESOURCE
ERROR_MRM_DIRECT_REF_TO_NON_DEFAULT_RESOURCE means a direct reference points at a qualifier-specific candidate instead of a default resource candidate. Such a reference can break when the runtime context selects another variant.
What to check
- Reference the logical named resource rather than hard-coding a non-default variant.
- Ensure the named resource has a neutral or default candidate for fallback.
- Review the PRI dump to distinguish direct candidate paths from logical resource names.
