Run-Time System Errors

Restriction: This topic applies only when a Database Connectors license has been installed via the Micro Focus License Management System.

This topic lists the Database Connectors for MSSQL 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
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	(no message associated with this error)
7	The interface cannot determine which row to change or delete. For a primary key that allows duplicates, one or both of the following conditions have not been met when rewriting or deleting a row or when executing READ followed by READ NEXT: An identity column must be included. This can be either a hidden column using A-MSSQL-ADD-IDENTITY when the table is created, or an explicit column using the IDENTIY-COLUMN XFD directive. The record to update or delete must be the last record read.
11	Stored procedures not found
12	A column of a key is of data type TEXT or IMAGE, which is illegal
13	Internal error
14	DB library function returned an unexpected error
16	Trying to rename a table across databases
17	Cache error
18	Primary Key error
19	Table Size Error
20	(no message associated with this error)
21	(no message associated with this error)
