Application Error Codes

The following list includes all of the standard error codes issued by an AXIS system in the event of an unexpected, (i.e. should not occur), error condition or a system abort. The ISSUED BY column is included for the sake of completeness but should be ignored by dealers who are not AXIS Approved Software Developers.

AXIS File Manager Error Codes

The following secondary error codes are only generated on an AXIS system abort if the abort was precipitated by the AXIS file handler.

ERROR CODE	DESCRIPTION
1 *	Another user has a lock conflicting with the requested lock (but not an exclusive file lock).
2 *	Another user has an exclusive lock on the data file.
3 *	There were no locks to remove.
10 *	The specified key could not be matched.
11	The specified data record has not been initialised.
12 *	You have attempted to create a duplicate key in an index which does not allow duplicates, or a duplicate (KEY, DRN) pair in one which does.
20	The specified file was not found.
21	You have attempted to create a file which already exists.
22	The file you are trying to delete is in use by another user.
23	The record length, key length or key type value provided in an open call does not match the values required for the specified file.
24 *	The file you have tried to open is corrupt or was not created by the AXIS file manager.
25	The file you have tried to open was not created by the AXIS file manager.
26	The file you have attempted to open is set to read only
27	File open nesting limit exceeded.
30 *	Failed to communicate with the server task (multi user only).
31	Either the disk or its directory is full.
32	There are no free file descriptors.
33	The lock table is full.
34 *	There is insufficient memory to allocate the requested number of buffers (single user only).
35	The index tree has too many levels.
36	The server input queue could not be opened; this normally means that the background file handler is not present.
37	The reply queue could not be opened. This normally means that the server has run out of queue buffer space or queue descriptors.
40 *	You are not attached to the AXIS file manager.
41 *	You are already attached to AXIS file manager.
42	The DPB or IPB passed does not correspond to an open file.
43 *	The specified file has already been opened by File Manager on behalf of the calling program.
50 *	The 'function' parameter in a call to FM_FNC was invalid.
51 *	The 'name' parameter was not a valid filename in an open or create call.
52 *	The KEYLEN field in the supplied Index Parameter Block is zero or too large.
53 *	The DRN value is zero or the DLOCK value is invalid.
54 *	You have specified a node number other than FF but are not attached to DRNET.
60	A physical error occurred during a disk read or write.
61	An error occurred while trying to open the specified file (e.g. another package has the file open).
62	An error occurred while trying to close a file.
63	An error occurred while trying to create a file (other than disk full or file already exists).
64	An error occurred while trying to delete a file.
65	A queue read or write has failed.
66	A network logon or queue mapping operation has failed (probably means that the specified server is not on the network).
67	An error occurred while trying to truncate a file.
71 *	Data protection mode 1 is no longer active (e.g. disk full)
72 *	Data protection mode 2 is no longer active (e.g. disk full)
73 *	Data protection modes 1 & 2 are no longer active (e.g. disk full)
80	Queue transmission failed due to DRNet server error
81	Queue transmission failed due to DRNet requester error
82	Queue transmission failed due to DRNet physical error
100	An internal File Manager call has occurred. This may be caused by corruption of an index or data file.

* Designates an error code that should be trapped by AXIS and dealt with internally. i.e. should not occur!
