Storage overflow while assigning data area. |
Expl. |
The storage area that contains the data area for the program overflowed during address assignment for data fields. or: There are more than 50 external subroutines referenced in the program. or: There was an overflow while composing an executable object. |
Actn. |
Reduce the data areas in the program, or use fewer database fields, or increase the DATSIZE profile parameter and restart the session. |

Length of record to be sorted exceeds 10240 bytes. |
Expl. |
The total length of the record to be sorted must not exceed 10240 bytes. Note: The fields written to sort storage are not only those fields specified in the SORT statement, but all database fields and user-defined variables defined before the SORT statement. |
Actn. |
Ensure that the sort record does not exceed 10240 bytes. |

Generation of format buffer fails. Reason code .... |
Expl. |
During the generation of format buffers, the following error situation occurred. Reason code descriptions: 4 - The generation buffer overflowed and the buffer could not be enlarged because there was not enough memory available. Ac.==> Start Natural in a larger thread/partition/region. 8 - Length of generated format buffer exceeds maximum of 32 KB. Ac.==> Reduce the number of fields in the format buffer. 12 - At runtime, a format buffer could not be expanded because there was not enough memory available. Ac.==> Start Natural in a larger thread/partition/region. 16 - At runtime, the storage needed to create the record buffer for a MULTI-FETCH database call could not be obtained. Ac.==> Start Natural in a larger thread/partition/region. |

Generation of record buffer failed. Reason code .... |
Expl. |
During the generation of a database statement, the following error situation occurred. Reason code description: 4 - Under Natural for Open Systems: The record buffer size of an Adabas access statement exceeds 64 KB. 4 - Under Natural for Mainframes: The record buffer size of a database access statement directed to Adabas Version 7 (or below) or to VSAM exceeds 32 KB. A record buffer size greater than 32 KB is only permitted if the called database is defined as Adabas V8 (see Profile Parameter DB). 8 - For DB2/SQL access statements the record buffer size exceeds the maximum of 32 KB. |
Actn. |
Reduce the number of record buffer fields. |

Data buffer ... not expandable while NATXCAL is active. |
Expl. |
When a subprogram is invoked via the 3GL interface (NATXCAL, NCIXCALL, NCIXCPRM), a data buffer cannot be expanded if one of the data fields residing in this buffer was supplied as a parameter with the CALL statement that has invoked the 3GL program. One of the following data buffers may be affected: AIVDAT - buffer for AIV variables, GLBUSER - buffer for user global variables, GLBSYS - buffer for system global variables, DATSIZE - buffer for local variables. |
Actn. |
If the buffer indicated is "DATSIZE", start Natural with an increased value for the DATSIZE profile parameter. |
Text |
Insufficient space for WRKSIZE to process SORT statement. |
Expl. |
The processing of the SORT statement requires the WRKSIZE buffer whose size is specified with the NTSORT/SORT profile parameter. Either WRKSIZE has been set to zero or its value exceeds the available space in the current thread/partition/region/task (where thread refers to the Natural thread). In case of a Natural thread the overflow size OVSIZE is also exceeded or could not be allocated. |
Actn. |
Either decrease WRKSIZE, or start Natural in a larger thread/partition/ region/task, or increase OVSIZE. |
Text |
... incompatible to mainframe version ... (see ...). |
Expl. |
The statement/keyword used is not compatible with the corresponding mainframe version of Natural. You can avoid this error by setting the compatibility switch referred to in the error message (e.g., the profile parameter V41MFCOMP=ON/OFF). |
Actn. |
Use only compatible statements/keywords, or switch off the compatibility switch. |

The user exit detected a condition that prevented the completion of the operation. The condition has been indicated to Natural by means of a return code. The return code is specific to the user exit. Natural program execution has been terminated. |
Actn. |
Contact your Natural administrator or the author of the specified user exit. |

Error ... in ... .... |
Expl. |
An error occurred in a statement of a copycode. This message is added to the initial error to show the object and line of the INCLUDE statement. In case of nested INCLUDEs, the message is added for each INCLUDE level. The messages can be displayed with the system command LASTMSG. Example: Program MAIN includes copycode COPYC at line 100. COPYC calls subprogram SUB1 at line 200. SUB1 does not exists. - Initial error message: COPYC 0200 NAT0923 Invalid program call (Callnat Program SUB1/... - Additional error message: MAIN 0100 NAT0917 Error 923 in Copycode COPYC. |

ESCAPE (TOP) not allowed in ON ERROR or AT block. |
Expl. |
This error may be caused by one of the following: 1. An ESCAPE statement was used to exit from a currently active ON ERROR block. However, an ON ERROR block must be exited with a FETCH, STOP, TERMINATE or RETRY statement. 2. An ESCAPE TOP statement was used within one of the following conditions: - AT BREAK - AT START OF DATA - AT END OF DATA |

Program ... cannot be loaded .... |
Expl. |
The specified external program could be neither loaded dynamically nor located statically. See the supplied operating-system/TP-monitor return code of the failing LOAD request for details. Possible reasons: - The program to be loaded dynamically is not contained in the load libraries currently defined to Natural. - Under CICS: The program is not defined to CICS. - There was not enough storage available to load the program dynamically (under Com-plete: the Com-plete thread was too small). - The limit for the number of programs to be dynamically loaded was exceeded. - For static programs: the program is not defined in the Natural parameter module with the CSTATIC parameter or not linked to the Natural parameter module. |
Actn. |
Natural parameter module. Make sure that the program is contained in a library available to or linked to Natural. Contact your Natural administrator concerning the setting of the Natural profile parameters CDYNAM and CSTATIC. |
Text |
Maximum call level reached. |
Expl. |
Natural supports calls to other Natural objects up to a maximum level. Whenever a Natural object invokes another Natural object (e.g. via CALLNAT, INPUT MAP, PERFORM, FETCH RETURN), the level counter is incremented by one. When the level counter exceeds the maximum level, this error is issued. This error usually occurs when an object calls itself recursively. See the Natural documentation, system variable *LEVEL, for further information. |

GDA signature conflict. |
Expl. |
This error occurs if a program references a global data area (GDA) which was recataloged with a changed GDA structure. If a GDA structure is changed, all objects which reference the GDA must also be cataloged. |
Actn. |
Check the program structure and recatalog. When running on a mainframe platform, you may use the profile parameter RECAT=ON. RECAT=ON is not possible for programs cataloged with the Natural Optimizer Compiler. |
Text |
Compile option GDASC mismatch. |
Expl. |
This error occurs if a program referencing a global data area (GDA) is cataloged with compile option GDASC=ON and the GDA was cataloged with compile option GDASC=OFF. |
Actn. |

GDA time-stamp conflict. |
Expl. |
This error occurs if a program references a global data area (GDA) which was recataloged or a GDA that has been moved from another environment after the program has been cataloged. Also the program that references the GDA could have been moved from a different environment into the current one causing a GDA time-stamp conflict. If a GDA is cataloged again, all objects which reference the GDA must also be cataloged again. |
Actn. |
Check the program structure and recatalog if necessary, or use the the compile option GDASC=ON. On a mainframe platform, you may consider setting the profile parameter RECAT=ON. |
Text |
