Handling Execution Errors
If an error occurs while you're executing an RPG program, an error
message (and often an error number) is displayed. If the error is a file
error, the File Information Display is produced automatically along with
an Error Dump (you can request error dumps independently, if you wish).
The sections which follow in this chapter discuss error messages, Error
Dumps and the File Information Display in detail.
If you're executing a program in session mode, the error message and File
Information Display are shown on your terminal. In job mode, error
messages are displayed on the operator's console and the File Information
Display is saved with the job listing. It is a good idea, when running
in job mode, to capture the messages and file information in a disc file.
This gives you more flexibility in scheduling your jobs and lets you
examine results at a later time. The following RUN command executes the
program GL50 and redirects error information to the existing disc file,
MESSFL:
:RUN GL50;STDLIST=MESSFL
Error Messages
There are four types of error messages: RPG, IMAGE, USWITCH and BUFCHK.
RPG errors are general errors such as arithmetic overflow and matching
record sequence errors. TurboIMAGE errors originate in the TurboIMAGE
subsystem and you may see these errors if you're using an IMAGE database
in your program. You may see USWITCH and BUFCHK errors if you're using
the USWITCH Source or the BUFCHK features of RPG, respectively.
Each type of error message has a different format and is documented
separately. RPG, USWITCH and BUFCHK errors are documented in Appendix B
of the HP RPG Reference Manual. TurboIMAGE errors are explained in the
TurboIMAGE/XL Database Management System manual. It is important,
therefore, to learn to recognize these three types of message formats so
that you will know where to find explanations and remedial procedures for
them.
RPG Errors. Most of the error messages you see when running an RPG
program are RPG error messages. RPG errors are detected by the software
that performs the basic RPG processing. They also include errors
occurring in software that RPG interfaces with, such as VPLUS, RSI, and
KSAM.
Appendix B of the HP RPG Reference Manual contains a complete description
of the RPG errors and actions that you can take to correct the errors.
Identifying RPG Errors
Figure 7-3 shows a typical RPG error message. Lines relating to RPG
errors are shaded. You identify an RPG error by the line,
*** RPG ERROR ***
You identify the specific error by the error number line,
1. FATAL FILE ERROR, FILENAME=DACCOUNT
![[]](../../pic3k/M010422/RPGP7F33c50.gif)
Figure 7-3. An RPG Execution Error
Changing the Way RPG Errors Are Handled
Normally, when an RPG error occurs, a message is displayed and the user
(or console operator) selects a particular action to take. The operator
can ignore the error and continue, skip the line in error and continue or
terminate the program. If you do not want the operator or user to make
these choices for specific error situations, you can enter the actions to
take within your program. You can do this using either (or both) the
Header Specification or the *ERROR field.
Use the Header Specification to enter the responses you want RPG to make
when an error occurs. For instance, you might want the operator to
handle errors except when an input file sequence error occurs. When
input sequence errors occur, you want to continue processing and use your
own error handling instead. (Use the *ERROR field to find out the error
number, then code your own RPG operations to handle the error.) Figure
7-4 shows a Header Specification that suppresses normal RPG processing
for input file sequence errors (the program includes code to handle these
errors).

Figure 7-4. Providing a Response to RPG Errors Using the Header Specification
Comments
1 This Header Specification changes the default error handling for
input file sequence errors.
Column 55 contains N to specify that the error message for
sequence errors be suppressed. Instead of the normal response
to sequence errors, take the action entered in column 58.
Column 58 contains 0 to ignore input file sequence errors and to
continue program execution.
TurboIMAGE Errors. If you're using an TurboIMAGE database, you may see
TurboIMAGE errors. To find the explanation and remedies for TurboIMAGE
errors, see the TurboIMAGE/XL Database Management System manual.
Figure 7-5 shows what an TurboIMAGE read error message looks like.

Figure 7-5. An TurboIMAGE Error
USWITCH Errors. USWITCH errors may occur when you use the USWITCH Source
feature (column 16 in the Header Specification). Appendix B of the HP
RPG Reference Manual contains a complete description of the USWITCH
errors and recovery procedures for them.
These are the USWITCH error messages you may encounter:
I/O ERROR ON $STDLIST
I/O ERROR ON $STDIN
INVALID INPUT DATA
UNEXPECTED END OF FILE
Figure 7-6 shows what a typical USWITCH error display looks like.

Figure 7-6. A USWITCH Error
BUFCHK Errors. BUFCHK errors are data buffer handling errors that may
occur when you use the BUFCHK Defaults feature (column 28 in the Header
Specification). Appendix B of the HP RPG Reference Manual contains a
complete description of the BUFCHK errors and recovery procedures for
them.
These are the BUFCHK error messages you may encounter:
INTERNAL OR INTRINSIC ERROR
ATTEMPTED UPDATE BEFORE INPUT OF FIRST RECORD.
ATTEMPTED UPDATE ON SAME RECORD OR ON AN INTERVENING "ADD" RECORD.
ATTEMPTED LOCKING FILE AT BOTH RECORD-LEVEL AND FILE-LEVEL
Figure 7-7 shows what a typical BUFCHK error display looks like.

Figure 7-7. A BUFCHK -4 Error
The File Information Display
You see the File Information Display (often referred to as "tombstone")
when an error occurs that involves a file. File Information Displays
give additional information about the error. File Information Displays
are discussed in the operating system intrinsics and error messages
manuals.
The File Information Display is shown in short form when the file cannot
be opened for processing. This happens, for example, when the file does
not exist in the group or account specified. The shaded portion of
Figure 7-8 shows what the short form looks like.
![[]](../../pic3k/M010422/RPGP7F83c50.gif)
Figure 7-8. Short Form of the File Information Display
Once a file is opened for processing and an error occurs, additional file
information is given in the File Information Display. This information
should help in clarifying the exact cause of the error. In Figure 7-9,
for example, RPG error number 1 occurred for the file, DACCOUNT. The File
Information Display gives detailed information about DACCOUNT.
![[]](../../pic3k/M010422/RPGP7F93c50.gif)
Figure 7-9. Long Form of the File Information Display
The Error Dump
The Error Dump shows the contents of certain areas in memory when a
program terminates due to execution errors. For example, the Error Dump
shows fields and their contents and the settings of indicators.
Executable program code is not listed in the Error Dump.
You get the Error Dump automatically when file errors occur. Otherwise,
you must specifically request it. You should always request dumps for
production programs. The next four sections explain how to request an
Error Dump and the information it contains.
Creating an Error Dump File. It is usually more convenient to write the
Error Dump to a disc file rather than display it. Before executing the
program, create an empty disc file for the Error Dump.
The following operating system command creates the disc file, DUMPRPG,
that is in a format that can be used to save Error Dumps,
:BUILD DUMPRPG;REC=-80,16,F,ASCII;DISC=512,8
Requesting an Error Dump. You can get an Error Dump automatically by
entering an S in the Error Log Field (column 55) of the Header
Specification. The dump is produced whenever an RPG error occurs. If
you only want certain errors to trigger a dump, put an N in column 55 or
leave it blank. Then enter an error response for those errors (which
include a dump) into the Error Response Field (columns 56-71).
(Alternatively, if you leave the Error Log Field blank and an error
occurs, the operator can select response 5. Response 5 terminates the
program and produces a dump.)
This figure shows a Header Specification that requests an Error Dump
whenever an RPG error occurs.
![[]](../../pic3k/M010422/RPGP7F103c50.gif)
Figure 7-10. Requesting an Error Dump
Comments
1 This Header Specification requests an Error Dump and directs it
to a disc file.
Columns 7-14 name the disc file, DUMPRPG, that contains the
Error Dump.
Column 55 is S to request an Error Dump if an error occurs. The
program terminates immediately. When you use S, you cannot use
the Response Field (columns 56-71) to enter error responses.
Parts of the Error Dump. Program information is shown in the Error Dump
in logical groupings with appropriate titles. The dump is easy to read.
Figure 7-11 (spread over several pages) shows an Error Dump of the
program in Figure 4-23 (see the compiler listing for this program in
Figure 6-11 through Figure 6-16).
The first part of the dump, LIBRARY POINTERS, shows the addresses of the
pointers to various tables and storage areas used by the program. Each
pointer contains the address of the first word of the table or storage
area.

After the LIBRARY POINTERS section, the RUN-TIME GLOBALS DATA AREA is
displayed. This area contains run-time control and status information.
For example, one piece of information is the file number for a message
file used in the program. The first part of the globals area for the

Figure 7-11. The Error Dump - RUN-TIME GLOBALS DATA AREA
The next two figures show the contents of the File Table Areas for each
file processed in the program. The first file shown is TERMINAL and the
second is DACCOUNT (these names are shaded in the figures).
The first section of each figure shows general information about the
file. For example, TERMINAL is a WORKSTN file whose designation is
DEMAND. Following the general information is the contents of the file
buffer (RECORD BUFFER (ASCII)). Then, the contents of the FILE TABLE are
listed in hexadecimal notation. The FILE TABLE contains all of the
control information used to process the file and may prove helpful in
determining the cause of file errors. The WORKSTATION EXTENSION TABLE
follows the FILE TABLE if the file is a WORKSTN file; the IMAGE EXTENSION
TABLE follows if the file is a TurboIMAGE file. They give information
relevant to those file types.
Refer to Table 7-1 through Table 7-3 for descriptions of positions in the
FILE, IMAGE EXTENSION and WORKSTATION EXTENSION TABLES. (A "word" in
Table 7-1 through Table 7-3 is 32 bits long.)

The contents of alphanumeric and numeric fields are listed next, as shown
in the following figure. To see the contents of a particular field, find
the field's address in the compiler Symbol Table listing, then locate
that address using the address column at the left margin. For example,
the ADDR column in the Symbol Table listing for the field ACTION contains
000002a4 (in hexadecimal). Adding the offset address (40200010) of
lib_pointer in the LIBRARY POINTERS section of the Error Dump, the actual
address for ACTION is 402002B4. Since ACTION is an alphanumeric field,
it takes up six bytes. The shaded area in the Alphanumeric Fields
section shows the contents of ACTION (it is blank).

Each table and array is listed in the order in which it appears in the
program. For each table and array, control information is printed first
followed by an ASCII dump of the table or array's contents. In the
