“Warning: An error occured during save” arises when saving a drawing which contains a style which was created with a layer from another “layer source” drawing.

1.  File new from _AutoCAD Civil 3D (Imperial) NCS Extended.dwt (drawing2.dwg) 2.  File new from acad.dwt (drawing3.dwg) 3.  Under toolspace/settings for drawing3.dwg, right click on General-Label Styles-Line and select New.
4.  General tab, left click on the box next to Layer that currently contains 0, then click on the … to the right.
5.  Left click on Drawing3.dwg under Layer source at the top left of the Layer Selection dialog and select Drawing2.dwg.
6.  Select C-ANNO then OK and OK and save the drawing as temp.dwg.

This results in an AUTOCAD Message box with this text:

Warning:  An error occured during save.
We recommend that you run RECOVER on the drawing.

Workarounds:
… bring the layer into the new drawing prior to assigning it. … This, unfortunately, negates the functionality of using “layer source”.
