Carddav Propfind request.

I am placing carddav propfind response for the request sent from carddav client on IPAD. The current user principal is set in the response. But i could see an

error message logged in IPAD saying "An account should have a single user principal". Please let me know when such an error is raised from carddav client on IPAD?

The request from IPAD is as follws:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

- <A:propfind xmlns:A="DAV:">

- <A:prop>

<A:current-user-principal />

<A:principal-URL />

<A:resourcetype />

</A:prop>

</A:propfind>

The response being sent is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

- <D:multistatus xmlns:D="DAV:" xmlns:CS="http://calendarserver.org/ns/" xmlns:C="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav" xmlns:CR="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:carddav" xmlns:ICAL="http://apple.com/ns/ical/" xmlns:ME="http://me.com/_namespace/">

- <response>

<D:href>/.well-known/carddav/principals/uname/</D:href>

- <propstat>

- <prop>

- <D:current-user-principal>

<D:href>/.well-known/carddav/principals/uname/</D:href>

</D:current-user-principal>

- <D:principal-URL>

<D:href>/.well-known/carddav/principals/uname/</D:href>

</D:principal-URL>

</prop>

</propstat>

- <propfind>

- <prop>

<status>HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found</status>

</prop>

</propfind>

</response>

</D:multistatus>

Can you please suggest why the error "An account should have a single user principal is thrown"?
