COBOL Manual for TNS/E Programs (H06.08+, J06.03+)

Cause
The device associated with the mnemonic-name specified in an ACCEPT statement is not a
process or a terminal; or the device associated with the mnemonic-name specified in a DISPLAY
statement is not a process, terminal, operator console, printer, or existing disk file.
Effect
The home terminal or the device specified as the EXECUTION-LOG is used instead. If the home
terminal or the device specified as the EXECUTION-LOG cannot be used, the run unit terminates
abnormally.
Recovery
Change the program to assign a proper device. Use low-level debugging to trap changes to
zero (see the Inspect Manual).
136
Input-output error nnn on ACCEPT or DISPLAY device
Cause
A file system error with a Guardian error code of nnn occurred while the process was accepting
or displaying data.
Effect
For an ACCEPT statement, the run-time library returns spaces for a nonnumeric destination or
zeros for a numeric destination, and execution continues. For a DISPLAY statement, the requested
data is not displayed, and execution continues.
Recovery
Type ERROR nnn to see the meaning of the Guardian error; it might indicate corrective action.
137
Called program not found
Cause
The program referenced in a CALL statement with identifier specified could not be located. It
must be present in the run unit or in the TNS or user library, and must be within the scope of the
CALL statement.
Effect
If the OVERFLOW or EXCEPTION clause is specified in the CALL statement, that path is taken.
If not, the run unit is terminated abnormally.
Recovery
If the program is not bound or linked into the run unit, and it should be, use BIND or a linker to
be bind or link it in with the other programs. If the value of the data item is incorrect or the
program being called is not within the scope of the called program, correct the program.
138
CANCEL references an active program
Cause
The program referenced in a CANCEL statement has been called but has not executed an EXIT
PROGRAM (it is still active).
Effect
The run unit terminates abnormally.
Recovery
Correct the program. Reduce the number of files that are open simultaneously.
