particular, check that the system is not loading any libraries from a
different Natural version to the one which is currently running.

NAT6952: Natural Reporter function did not complete successfully.

Text
Natural Reporter function did not complete successfully.
Explanation
The Natural Reporter failed to carry out the requested function
successfully.

Check the documentation to ensure that the requested function is being
used correctly. Can the series of operations being performed by the
program be carried out successfully by hand from within the Reporter
when used standalone? If so, has OLE been installed correctly? If the
cause of the problem still cannot be found, contact Software AG support.
Action
see explanation

NAT6953: Natural/Reporter Interface not initialized.

Text
Natural/Reporter Interface not initialized.
Explanation
An attempt was made to call a Natural/Reporter interface function
without first initializing the interface. Either no initializing
call has been made, or a call to terminate the interface has been
performed, in which case the interface needs to be re-initialized.
Note that it is only necessary to initialize and terminate the
Natural/Reporter interface once per Natural session.
Action
Modify program to include a statement to (re-)initialize the
Natural/Reporter interface.

NAT6954: Requested report could not be found.

Text
Requested report could not be found.
Explanation
If the report is specified by name (i.e., an OPEN request), the
specified report could not be located in the file system. Otherwise,
the specified report ID is not valid.

Check that the report name contains no path or file extension
information, is not longer than 8 characters, and exists in the
NATGUI̲BMP path as specified in the SAG.INI file. Or check that the
report ID corresponds to a valid ID, as returned by a previous OPEN
(for example, check the response code from the OPEN to verify that
the report was opened correctly). Confirm that no CLOSE request has
been issued against this report in the meantime!
Action
see explanation

NAT6955: Too many active reports.

Text
Too many active reports.
Explanation
The maximum number of reports concurrently maintainable by the
Natural/Reporter Interface has been reached.
Action
Modify program to issue a CLOSE request for each report as soon as it
is no longer needed, or if it will probably not be used again for a
significant length of time.

NAT6956: Invalid parameter(s).

Text
Invalid parameter(s).
Explanation
This error can have various causes:
   - the number of parameters supplied is incorrect
   - one or more mandatory parameters were not supplied
   - one or more parameters were specified with an incorrect format
     and/or length
Action

NATPARM or dynamically via DEFINE WORK FILE), or the file does not
exist, or it is not a Natural CONNECTION (*.NCD) work file.
Action
Check work file name against the above criteria

NAT6959: Failed to save resources to private resource file.

Text
Failed to save resources to private resource file.
Explanation
Along with the dialog source, resources needed to be saved. This action
failed.
Possible reasons:
- Problems to access the current library
- Problems accessing/creating the resource directory in the
  current library
- Problems writing/appending to the private resource file
- Problems executing dynamic functions
- Memory problems
Action
Check the subdirectories of the library the dialog was saved in. If you
cannot solve the problem there, contact Software AG support.

NAT6960: Unable to import (private) resource :1: into library :2:.

Text
Unable to import (private) resource ... into library ....
Explanation
The importing of a resource failed. If the resource is a private
resource, the corresponding object to which the private resource belongs
must be present in the library and its type must be the same as
the type of the private resource.
Action
Resolve the type conflict by either importing the appropriate resource
and/or  by  first replacing the corresponding Natural object in the
target library. If in doubt, contact Software AG support.

NAT6970: Natural RPC initialization failed. RPC not available.

        7: No space. Increase region/thread size (MF) or USIZE (LUW).
        8: No MAXBUFF defined on client side, but RPC is used.
       10: AD=M (inout) or AD=A (in) parameter used with reliable RPC.
       11: The used interface object does not support reliable RPC.
           Regenerate interface object with latest Natural version.
Action
Proceed depending on above reason.

NAT6975: Security error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
Security error on ..., reason ... ....
Explanation
Reason: 1: Logon data required by the Natural RPC server.
        2: Invalid logon data received by the Natural RPC server.
           After the reason, diagnostic information is indicated
           in the message.
        3: Invalid offset to the logon data in the RPC meta data.
        4: Impersonation failed for the user indicated in the message.
           The external security system has rejected the logon attempt
           of the user. The reason is shown in the Natural RPC server
           trace and in the system log of the server.
Action
Reason: 1:   Pass logon data from the client to the Natural RPC server.
        2,3: Contact Software AG support.
        4:   Pass logon data that is valid for your security system.

NAT6976: Context error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
Context error on ..., reason ... ....
Explanation
Reason: 1: Context size overflow.
           The storage for the variables of the DEFINE DATA CONTEXT
           statement could not be allocated.
           On mainframe computers, the CONTEXT buffer could not be
           allocated or increased. This is either caused by storage
           restrictions of the operating or TP system, or by Natural
           environment constraints (Natural profile parameter OVSIZE,
           NATCONFG table entry NTBUFID for CONTEXT buffer).
           On Windows and UNIX systems, the USIZE buffer was not large
           enough to fulfil the storage request.
        2: Conflict in format/length definition of a variable.
           The context variable whose name is shown in the error message
           was defined in a previous program with a different
           format/length.
Action
Reason: 1: Decrease number of context variables and/or number of
           concurrent conversations, or remove storage contraints.
        2: Correct format/length of context variable.

NAT6977: EntireX RPC error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
EntireX RPC error on ..., reason ... ....
Explanation
An EntireX RPC error has occurred.
The reason shows the EntireX RPC error number, optionally followed by
additional diagnostic information.

This error can only occur if a Natural client is communicating with an
EntireX RPC server.
Action
Refer to the EntireX Communicator messages and codes.

NAT6978: RPC protocol error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
RPC protocol error on ..., reason ... ....
Explanation
Reason: 2: The Server does not support the RPC protocol version used by
           the RPC client.
           Or:
           The client does not support the RPC protocol version used by
           the client interface object (stub subprogram).
           After the reason, the unsupported version is shown
           in the message.

        3: The RPC protocol header or RPC format buffer is invalid.
           After the reason, the corresponding EntireX error number is
           shown in the message. In the case of format buffer errors,
           the erroneous element is appended to the error number.
Action
Use the correct RPC protocol version.
Refer to the EntireX messages.

NAT6979: Premature termination of a remote CALLNAT.

Text
Premature termination of a remote CALLNAT.
Explanation
The remote execution of a CALLNAT was prematurely terminated on the
server side and all data of the parameter area were lost. The reason
for this may be the use of one of the following Natural statements:
- STOP
- FETCH
- ESCAPE BOTTOM outside of a processing loop
- RUN
- TERMINATE

Note: These statements will be disabled in a remotely executed CALLNAT
in one of the next Natural versions.
Action
Do not use one of the listed statements in a remotely executed CALLNAT.
