invalid number (format?)

A configuration statement expected an integer number as its argument. However, the number was not well-formed. The configuration statement in question was ignored.

Note that only digits are permitted inside number. For example “1,000” needs to be written as “1000” (this may change in future releases).

Some value is invalid (e.g. user-supplied data).
