Identify service index out of bounds

Question

Hi,

If I call identify with id != index and max id > layer count then I get:Server Error - Index was outside the bounds of the array

A full explanation is given from post 15 on this thread:

Can anyone confirm this as an issue and suggest a way forward without me telling the Map admin to change his maps?

Thanks, Matthew

It sounds like a bug in handling the layerid correctly for the last layer if one or more layers in the map has broken link to the data.  I don't see any workaround other than fixing the broken layer or removing this invalid layer.
