# SafeDerivationFailed (/docs/errors/chain/SafeDerivationFailed)

The canonical bounded search could not derive an off-curve composite account. No fallback account was created. Choose a different signer manifest or derivation index for a new account; retain the original mode and parameters when restoring one.

Declared by the `Utility`, `Multisig`, `Proxy` pallets; it classifies to the semantic code [`invalid_argument`](/docs/errors/invalid-argument).

Declared at [`pallets/utility/src/lib.rs#L202`](/code/pallets/utility/src/lib.rs#L202), [`pallets/proxy/src/lib.rs#L926`](/code/pallets/proxy/src/lib.rs#L926).
