If the error occurs in a non-modfied SAP template, you might be able to find a solution in the SAP Notes system.
If you have access to the SAP Notes system, check there first using the following keywords:
<runtime parameter> Template interpretation terminated, syntax error. Call transaction SE80 and correct the syntax error. In SE80, choose 'Internet Service' and navigate to the corresponding template. Take the service, theme and template name from the path of the template causing the error:
<runtime parameter>.
Remember to publish the corrected template on the 'INTERNAL' site in order to activate the change. Please see abap error for more details about the possible cause of this runtime error and how it could be avoided.

Function parameter <runtime parameter> is defined as an OUT parameter and must therefore be a variable. A constant cannot be specified as an OUT parameter.
