DDL Messages
This appendix lists all of the DDL error and warning messages in alphabetic order. For
each message, it gives the cause, describes the action taken by the DDL compiler, and
provides a recovery procedure.
During DDL processing, you might receive a message from a sequential I/O procedure.
Sequential I/O error messages, numbered from 500 to 600, are not documented in this
manual. For information about the corrective action to take when you get such an error,
see the Guardian Procedure Errors and Messages Manual.
Warnings and Errors
Messages are preceded by ***WARNING*** for warning messages, ***ERROR*** for
error messages, and ***FATAL ERROR*** for fatal error messages. Warning and error
messages are classified as follows:
WARNING
ERROR
FATAL ERROR
DDL Error and Warning Messages
An alphabetic list of DDL error and warning messages follows. The messages are
alphabetized on the first word following the ***ERROR***, ***FATAL ERROR***, or
***WARNING*** prefix.
***ERROR*** A noncomputational item was specified in group-
group-name
Cause. A group described with a USAGE IS COMP clause contains a field with a data
type that cannot be computational.
Effect. DDL rejects the object.
Recovery. Change the data type of the field, or remove the USAGE IS COMP clause
from the group definition or description.
Data Definition Language (DDL) Reference Manual—426798-002
Indicates an error or ambiguity that does not prevent compilation
of a DDL record or definition, but that may cause results other
than those desired. The ?ERRORS command does not count
warnings as errors.
Indicates an error that affects the dictionary or source output
from the dictionary. Generally, when such an error occurs, DDL
continues compilation but does not add the object in error to the
dictionary or to any open source file. The ?ERRORS command
counts errors.
Indicates an error from which DDL cannot recover. DDL stops
compiling when it detects a fatal error.
