QuickFix error: the tag appears more than once in the "W" message

I get the following “W” message from the FIX server:

8=FIX.4.2|9=141|35=W|34=98|49=CX|52=20150401-09:12:30.247|56=CACIB_MD2|55=608230|262=48|9883=IDB|268=2|269=0|58=No Bid Available|269=1|58=No Offer Available|10=249

which has a tag 58 twice

and my QuickFix application automatically sends a failure message to the server:

 8=FIX.4.2|9=104|35=3|34=91|49=CACIB_MD2|52=20150401-09:12:29.661|56=CX|45=90|58=Tag appears more than once|371=58|372=W|10=008

From reading on the Internet, I realized that there is a problem with the dictionary.

I do not have a dictionary configuration in my QuickFix configuration file. I'm not quite sure where the default dictionary is, but one of those found (FIX42.xml) determines that tag 58 is part of the group for the "W" message:

  <message name='MarketDataSnapshotFullRefresh' msgcat='app' msgtype='W'> <field name='MDReqID' required='N' /> <field name='Symbol' required='Y' /> <field name='SymbolSfx' required='N' /> <field name='SecurityID' required='N' /> <field name='IDSource' required='N' /> <field name='SecurityType' required='N' /> <field name='MaturityMonthYear' required='N' /> <field name='MaturityDay' required='N' /> <field name='PutOrCall' required='N' /> <field name='StrikePrice' required='N' /> <field name='OptAttribute' required='N' /> <field name='ContractMultiplier' required='N' /> <field name='CouponRate' required='N' /> <field name='SecurityExchange' required='N' /> <field name='Issuer' required='N' /> <field name='EncodedIssuerLen' required='N' /> <field name='EncodedIssuer' required='N' /> <field name='SecurityDesc' required='N' /> <field name='EncodedSecurityDescLen' required='N' /> <field name='EncodedSecurityDesc' required='N' /> <field name='FinancialStatus' required='N' /> <field name='CorporateAction' required='N' /> <field name='TotalVolumeTraded' required='N' /> <group name='NoMDEntries' required='Y'> <field name='MDEntryType' required='Y' /> <field name='MDEntryPx' required='Y' /> <field name='Currency' required='N' /> <field name='MDEntrySize' required='N' /> <field name='MDEntryDate' required='N' /> <field name='MDEntryTime' required='N' /> <field name='TickDirection' required='N' /> <field name='MDMkt' required='N' /> <field name='TradingSessionID' required='N' /> <field name='QuoteCondition' required='N' /> <field name='TradeCondition' required='N' /> <field name='MDEntryOriginator' required='N' /> <field name='LocationID' required='N' /> <field name='DeskID' required='N' /> <field name='OpenCloseSettleFlag' required='N' /> <field name='TimeInForce' required='N' /> <field name='ExpireDate' required='N' /> <field name='ExpireTime' required='N' /> <field name='MinQty' required='N' /> <field name='ExecInst' required='N' /> <field name='SellerDays' required='N' /> <field name='OrderID' required='N' /> <field name='QuoteEntryID' required='N' /> <field name='MDEntryBuyer' required='N' /> <field name='MDEntrySeller' required='N' /> <field name='NumberOfOrders' required='N' /> <field name='MDEntryPositionNo' required='N' /> <field name='Text' required='N' /> <field name='EncodedTextLen' required='N' /> <field name='EncodedText' required='N' /> </group> </message>

This happens when the “W” message arrives not with two 58 tags, but with two 269 tags (MDEntryType):

 8=FIX.4.2|9=217|35=W|34=110|49=CX|52=20150401-09:23:19.787|56=CACIB_MD2|55=561832|262=26|9883=IDB|268=2|269=0|58=No Bid Available|269=1|270=123|271=1|272=20150401|273=09:23:19.551|59=0|126=20150401-19:23:19.551|290=1|9139=cacib_uat2|10=016

QuickFix again automatically sends the reject:

 8=FIX.4.2|9=107|35=3|34=111|49=CACIB_MD2|52=20150401-09:23:19.848|56=CX|45=110|58=Tag appears more than once|371=269|372=W|10=153

So what can be done here?

In your configuration file, use the following flag. The default is Y, but make sure you are sure.

ValidateFieldsOutOfOrder = N

Confirm that your configuration has the following: the default is Y. You should always use a DataDictionary if you are using the duplicate groups mentioned on the Quickfix configuration page.

UseDataDictionary = Y

And this has a way where a data dictionary is present.

DataDictionary = / path_to_data_dictionary_file
