HP Transact Reference Manual

Run-time Error Messages 

Transact generates two types of error message:  one type indicates actual
errors, the other type provides information to the user but does not
indicate an actual error.  Both types of message are described below and
in the appropriate reference manual for the indicated subsystem.

Error Message Format 

Error messages are displayed in the following format:

{*ERROR:} error-message (error-info) [program-name]
{*INFO: }
Information messages are not errors but are conditions that the processor
will tell the user about.  Also, messages that occur only in test modes
are type INFO.

Error-Info 

Whether appearing in an error or an information message, error-info can
contain up to five of the following fields:

     (type  number [,code-location[,PARM(n)][,file-name]]

where

type                  is one the following:

                      Transact/V    TVB

                      Transact/iX   TXA, TXB, TXC, TXD, TXE, TXH, TXI,
                                    TDEBUG

                                    The following error types are derived
                                    from the indicated subsystem.
                                    Consult the appropriate reference
                                    manual for an explanation of the
                                    error condition.

                      IMAGE         IMAGE/V or TurboIMAGE/V database
                                    error.

                      KSAM          KSAM utility error or file system
                                    error while operating on a KSAM file.

                      MPEF          MPE file system error.

                      VPLUS         VPLUS data entry utility error.

number                The error number for types TVB, TXA, TXB, TXC, TXD,
                      TXE, TXH, TXI, TDEBUG. For types IMAGE, KSAM, MPE,
                      or VPLUS, it is a number meaningful to the
                      indicated subsystem.

code-location         The internal location in the program at which the
                      error occurred.  (See the second column of numbers
                      on the program compilation listing.)

PARM(n)               n is the field number on multiple data entry fields
                      at which the error was detected.  All of the
                      following data entry fields are ignored.

file-name             The name of the data set or file that was involved
                      in the error condition.

Program-Name 

program-name can be one of the following:

Transact/V            The system name from the SYSTEM statement.

                      The last one to six characters of the file-name if
                      the IP <name> file is renamed using an MPE command.

Transact/iX           The system name from the SYSTEM statement.

                      The file-name containing the Transact/iX program if
                      an error occurs before the system is established.

                      The procedure name of a called subprogram in an MPE
