Introduction

This introduction covers the following topics:


Message Format

The messages as they appear on your screen have the following format:

PPPGGGNNNN-S Text

where:

PPP is the three-digit product code (COM).
GGG is the message group. This is an indication of the origin of the message, for example, USP signifies the message is is sued by the USPOOL utility.
NNNN is the message number.
S is the optional system-ID, controlled by the appropriate applymod, and is the system's patch character or the installation ID.

The messages in this manual are sorted alphabetically according to message group, and within the group according to message number.

Completion Codes

The following codes are used to indicate that a task has terminated abnormally. The code may have been received from one of the following:

  1. The Nucleus

  2. A Batch Utility

  3. A Utility.

Location Of Abend Processing Information

An abnormal termination of a Com-plete system task or batch utility program is generally accompanied by several ABE error messages. If a user abend appears as the cause in the ABE message, the code and explanation are found here.

An internal abnormal termination of an online program will display the code (in decimal) in message ABS0007.

User Abend Codes

User Abend 16

This occurs if a UDEBUG breakpoint SVC is hit while the same session is sitting on a breakpoint. This can occur if breakpoints are set in the Com-plete nucleus routines which process breakpoints either on purpose or inadvertently.

User Abend 17

This indicates that an error has occurred within the logic to trap and record user program ENQs or DEQs. It will have been preceded by a message indicating what the problem is and this message should be used for further diagnosis of the problem.

User Abend 18

The current app attempted disconnecting from its TCB while using the IBM linkage stack.

User Abend 21

Com-plete uses a bridging mechanism to process Com-plete MCALL API requests issued using the SVC entry mechanism. To do this, under certain circumstances a savearea must be gotten to process the request. This abend occurs when there is no room to get the savearea in the thread, therefore rendering it impossible to service the request.

Nucleus Codes

12 TLSVOS A SVC was trapped, that was issued by a system task
20 TLSVOS An unsupported SVC was trapped.
51 TLSRTMSG An unexpected error occurred during message processing.
73 TLSRTLEN A zero data length was passed.
84 TLSVTSKM An internal request to reset the key of a thread was issued from a system task.
222 TLINVSAM The BLDVRP macro failed.
1005 TLINMESG I/O error on COMSPL dataset.
1011 TLSRTMSG An ABEND option was specified for a message issued by a system task.
1013 TLSRRJE An invalid returncode in R15 was received from user exit ULSRRJE.

Batch Utility Codes

2006 TUSDUTIL Abend due to internal error. Please check the log and/or output to determine the cause for the abend.
2006 T46CSC Abend due to internal error. Please check the log and/or output to determine the cause for the abend.

Utility Codes

An abend from a Software AG-written utility program indicates that a disk device, terminal device, or program logic error has occurred. See notes 1 through 5 at the end of this section for a further explanation of the problem.

The following abend codes may be issued generally by a utility as they relate to problems which can occur in each utility.

3000 During a call to the security routines, TLSEUTIL received an invalid return code from the security routines.
3001 The terminal operator entered a "*CANCEL" request.
3002 The utility received a terminal I/O error reponse code from Com-plete.

General Notes

  1. A disk hardware error was discovered while the utility program was executing. If the problem recurs after the utility program function has been retried, some action must be taken to clear up the disk problem (recurrence indicates some type of permanent disk storage problem).

  2. A terminal device hardware error. The terminal (or phone line, modem, etc.) should be repaired before it is used again.

  3. The abend code may indicate a logic error in a utility program. Before reporting this type of problem to your Software AG technical representative, you should:

    • Ensure that a user-written exit is not responsible for the problem.

    • Have the following information available:

      • A printed dump of the problem

      • A brief explanation of the conditions surrounding the problem (i.e., specific terminals, files, users, etc., with which the problems appear to be associated)

      • The current fix level for the utility program and for the Com-plete nucleus.

  4. This abend is associated with the Com-plete SDREAD function. It indicates one of the two following conditions:

    • The record requested to be read was never written

    • A logical End-Of-File condition was reached while reading the SD file.

  5. There is not enough memory available to perform a function. The abending program should be recataloged with a larger region size (see ULIB utility program in the Com-plete User Utilities documentation).

    See note 3 above for further information.
