Continuing the discussion from [[RELEASE] Rule Machine](https://community.smartthings.com/t/release-rule-machine/28730): So the Rule Machine thread has become too long. I’ve created this thread so we can post (new) issues. Let’s provide error screenshot, the line of code that the error refers to and/or a screenshot of the rule. This should speed up troubleshooting efforts. So I just noticed this error (see below). Anyone having RM issues, post away on this thread… **Error** : ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/smartthings/original/3X/4/8/4866f0d3e90785bcbd76660c3514be40c9b6bd54.png) **Code** : ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/smartthings/original/3X/a/9/a9d87afef65b402304317e505e55d170646a0f32.png) **Rule** : ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/smartthings/original/3X/d/7/d7a174363e4d24184dc356e98539c0ddb23c23e8.jpg) ---

I am getting `UndeclaredThrowableException`s on pretty much all my smart apps (not just RM) that use `runIn()` or `schedule()` - I believe that ST is still trying to get the scheduling under control and that this is a side effect of them messing with it… ---

Yea, these are all platform errors, not much can be done to code around them… 1434 is a call to runIn()… ---

The started the other day. See this thread: > [@Platform Issues? - UndeclaredThrowableException Everywhere](https://community.smartthings.com/t/platform-issues-undeclaredthrowableexception-everywhere/36318): > > Anybody else seeing a large number of errors (java.lang.reflect.UndeclaredThrowableException) on what appears to be random lines of code across multiple smart apps that have worked for months (even over a year)? No changes to the apps on my end. Any thoughts? ---

I was experiencing this error yesterday on 1 of of 14 rules. I ended up deleting and re-entering it and the error stopped. ---

I keep getting a new error that I don’t recall seeing it before. Any thoughts? It may be related to the db changes… ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/smartthings/original/3X/7/5/75b8c789ca1ab08eba76634e4dadd4c5433014ab.png) ---

> [@SBDOBRESCU](#): > > I keep getting a new error that I don’t recall seeing it before. Any thoughts? It may be related to the db changes… That one’s been popping up since the latest round of issues started. Hopefully it’ll be taken care of with the new database clusters later today.
