Satish,

Your post is lacking a lot of details.

What type of geometry is the layer of the map service that you are applying the renderer to?
What version of the JS API are you using?
What does your code look like for what you are attempting?

thanks for the reply

1. layer is of point geometry

2. I am using 3.27 jasvascript api

3. I am just dipalying the layer in my javascript apllication with my own textsymbol form true font

i am using ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer and creating

var textSymbol = new TextSymbol('d', new Font("20pt", Font.STYLE_NORMAL, Font.VARIANT_NORMAL, Font.WEIGHT_BOLD, "gecefont"));
textSymbol.setColor(new Color([255,255,0,0.5]));

OK, I don't see the same error as you do but I definitely can verify that setting the layers renderer to a TextSymbol does not work for a ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer.

Normally I would see something like that if you are trying to convert JSON to a symbol and something was wrong in the JSON.
