Entire DB Request Handler cannot be found. |
Expl. |
The Entire DB Request Handler (NATDREQ) is not linked to Natural. |
Actn. |
Check the link job and re-link the Natural nucleus with module AERNAT5 included. |
Text |
Entire cannot be initialized. |
Expl. |
The cause is either that - there was not enough space to satisfy the request; - the Entire buffer (ZSIZE) is too small - minimum is 44; - the Adabas/Entire nucleus (AERNUC) is not accessible, because it is not linked or cannot be loaded dynamically. |
Actn. |
Contact your Entire DB administrator. |

Relocatability error in Entire DB. |
Actn. |
Check program and correct error. |
Text |
First command to Entire not "DLOGON". |
Expl. |
Before accessing the Entire data in any way, a DLOGON statement must be successfully executed. This allows the user identity to be determined, the application to be set, and security check and accessibility of data to be determined. |
Actn. |
Ensure that the system calls a DLOGON before access, and correct code. |
Text |
Invalid function code for Entire. |
Expl. |
Entire has received a control block (same format as Adabas) which has a function code field (offset 2 in the CB) that cannot be interpreted by Entire. This is most likely caused by an incompatibility of systems and/or overwriting of the Entire work area. |
Actn. |
Produce an application dump and contact Software AG support. |
Text |
Entire version incompatibility. |
Expl. |
This is caused by linking the interface CSECT DDIPFNAT (AERNUC) with another version of the initialization module ADDINIT (AERNAT). |
Actn. |
Check the Natural/Entire link job for "INCLUDE" datasets, or contact your system administrator. |
Text |
No "RETAIN AS" set with the given name exists. |
Expl. |
This occurs when, for example, a FIND references a non-existent or released ISN set. See FIND statement, RETAIN clause, in the Entire DB Programmer"s Guide for further information. |
Actn. |
Make sure that usage of ISN sets in application program is correct. |
Text |

Actn. |
Check the program and align the Control Block. |
Text |
Record length is greater than Open length. |
Expl. |
Entire DB has attempted to write a record via EXPORT/IMPORT to work file 1. This work file has already been opened with a record of length less than 4096 bytes. |
Actn. |
Check program for reads/writes and make sure that the first read or write is at least 4096 bytes. Alternatively, check the DCB. |

Text |
Operand for RET, SORTKEY or VAL function is not valid. |
Expl. |
The operand for RET, SORTKEY or VAL must be alphanumeric. In addition, the length of the SORTKEY operand should not exceed 253. |
Actn. |
Specify an alphanumeric program name with the RET function. Do not apply the system function SORTKEY or VAL to a non-alphanumeric field. Ensure the length of the SORTKEY operand does not exceed 253. |
Text |
Invalid operands in SUBSTRING option. |
Expl. |
The field name specified in the SUBSTRING option must have alphanumeric (A), binary (B) or Unicode (U) format. The starting position in the field and the length of the substring must be numeric. They must not position beyond the physical length of the underlying field. |
Actn. |
Correct error in program. |
Text |
This user-defined name is a Natural reserved word. |
Expl. |
The Natural profile parameter KC=ON (keyword check) has been set, which means that a user-defined name (identifier) must not be the same as a Natural reserved word. |
Actn. |
Use a different name. |

Invalid operand type combination in MOVE ENCODED statement. |
Expl. |
The MOVE ENCODED statement is used to convert data from one code page encoding into another encoding. Therefore you have to either supply one of the operands as an alphanumeric or binary field with a CODEPAGE clause appended, or specify one operand as alphanumeric or binary and the other operand as type Unicode. Valid operand combinations are: MOVE ENCODED A/B IN CODEPAGE <cp1> TO U MOVE ENCODED A/B IN CODEPAGE <cp1> TO A/B MOVE ENCODED A/B IN CODEPAGE <cp1> TO A/B IN CODEPAGE <cp2> MOVE ENCODED U TO A/B IN CODEPAGE <cp2> MOVE ENCODED A/B TO A/B IN CODEPAGE <cp2> MOVE ENCODED U TO A/B MOVE ENCODED A/B TO U |

Expl. |
A selection-box clause (SB=..) may only be used for alphanumeric fields. Moreover, - the parameter fields specified have to be alphanumeric as well, - the number of parameter fields must not exceed 20. A selection-box clause (SB=..) must NOT be used for - fields defined as named constants (see CONST clause in DEFINE DATA), - system variables (e.g. *PROGRAM, *COM), - multiple-value fields (e.g. #ARRAY(1:10)). |

Length indicator cannot be referenced in UPDATE or STORE. |
Expl. |
A length indicator field may be used to retrieve the length of an Adabas Long-Alpha or LOB field (LA/LOB) in a read (READ/FIND) operation. It must not be referenced in a view used in a STORE or UPDATE statement. Example: DEFINE DATA LOCAL 1 V1 V1 VIEW OF MYFILE 2 L@LA-FIELD (I4) <-- Length indicator field 2 LA-FIELD (A) DYNAMIC END-DEFINE STORE V1 If an LA or LOB field is part of the STORE/UPDATE field list,the corresponding length field information is automatically added by the Natural runtime system, based on the current length of the dynamic variable. To prevent a duplicate length setting for the same LA/LOB field, length fields are not allowed in the STORE/UPDATE fields. |
Actn. |
Remove length fields from data view used in UPDATE or STORE. |
Text |
Index missing for sub-/super-descriptor field .... |
Expl. |
A sub-/super-descriptor field containing a periodic-group field (or parts thereof) was specified in a data view without index. This is not permitted by Adabas for database calls other than HISTOGRAM (L9). With a HISTOGRAM you cannot read more than a single field. This view definition consists of multiple fields and thus cannot be used for a HISTOGRAM. Furthermore, due to the missing index, it cannot be used for other database calls. What to do? 1. Reduce the number of view fields to only the sub-/super-descriptor - without index to make the view usable for HISTOGRAM only; - with an index to make the view usable for all browsing statements. 2. If multiple fields are defined in the view, supply an index or index-range for the sub-/super-descriptor to make it usable for all database browsing statements other than HISTOGRAM. |
Actn. |
See description. |
Text |
Field structure of view ... only usable for HISTOGRAM. |
Expl. |
The view referenced is only applicable to a HISTOGRAM statement, as it consists of only a single sub-/super-descriptor field containing a periodic-group field (or parts thereof) without an index specification. This is not permitted by Adabas and will cause Adabas errors when used with a database statement other than HISTOGRAM. |
Actn. |
Supply index or index-range for the sub-/super-descriptor field, or use the view only for HISTOGRAM statements. |
Text |
Incorrect use of WITH SHARED HOLD MODE=C in ... at line .... |
Expl. |
When a WITH SHARED HOLD MODE=C option is used in a READ/FIND, a record being read is only returned to the caller if it is not in exclusive hold status by another user at the time of the record fetch. The record is not put in hold status by this operation. This conflicts with the use of a DELETE/UPDATE statement which refers to the READ/FIND including the WITH SHARED HOLD MODE=C option, because the execution of a DELETE/UPDATE requires for the underlying record to be in hold status. |
Actn. |
Do not use WITH SHARED HOLD MODE=C option in a READ/FIND if the record received is updated or deleted. |
Text |

END-READLOB missing for READLOB in line .... |
