How to fix this error?

Check the entry and make the necessary corrections. Note any
relationships between the individual fields. Entries in other fields
may also be incorrect.
Example: There are two fields for maintaining the country and region.
These fields are linked. The country chosen would be permitted if it
were by itself. So would the region. But the region may not be in the
the country chosen. In this case, an error message is issued. The
country should then be corrected, not the region!
