I do not think there would be an error. It happens when subscription is not synchronized within a specified period of time. May be your subscriber was offline for more than the maximum length of time before the subscription was deactivated. The best way around this is to set history retention and your publication retention settings to values which exceed the maximum length of time your subscriber could be offline for.
