This topic lists the Database Connectors for Oracle error messages that could occur during execution of your program. For information on compile-time errors and several methods for retrieving run time system errors, see the chapter Performance and Troubleshooting.
Run-time system errors have this format:
9/xxx
The 9 indicates a file system error and is reported as the first digit of the 2-byte FILE STATUS variable. The xxx is a binary value between 1 and 255 that provides more information. If xxx is 83, you can retrieve additional information with C$RERR. That additional information can come from either the database or the run time. Run-time codes returned with C$RERR include:
| Code | Message |
|---|---|
| 0 | Duplicate key |
| 1 | Error reading the XFD file |
| 2 | Corrupt XFD/dictionary file |
| 3 | Error opening the XFD file |
| 4 | Too many key fields (16 max) |
| 5 | Too many key fields (16 max for Oracle) |
| 1001 | Invalid Cursor |
For a detailed description of a particular message, see the Error Messages section.
