Recovery. Type ERROR nnn to see the meaning of the Guardian error; it might
indicate corrective action. A value of “48,” for example, means that the program does
not have permission to purge an existing file that has an improper record size and
create a new one.
185 (061)
Cause. During the execution of an OPEN statement, the attempt to purge the data
from the file (the purge is due to an OPEN OUTPUT on a file that contains data) failed
with Guardian error nnn.
Effect. The OPEN statement is unsuccessful with I-O status code “30.”
Recovery. Type ERROR nnn to see the meaning of the Guardian error; it might
indicate corrective action.
186 (063)
Cause. During the execution of a READ statement, the system read routine failed with
Guardian error nnn.
Effect. The READ statement is unsuccessful with I-O status code “30.
Recovery. Type ERROR nnn to see the meaning of the Guardian error; it might
indicate corrective action.
187 (064)
Cause. A READ … LOCK statement was attempted on an OSS file or a file that is
reading ahead. This can happen if the file is opened for INPUT and the organization is
sequential. A READ operation that is executed as part of a transaction (delimited by
ENTER “BEGINTRANSACTION” and ENTER “ENDTRANSACTION” statements)
requires such locking.
For the exact set of conditions under which the run-time routines try to preread
records, see OPEN.
Effect. The READ statement is unsuccessful with I-O status code “91.
Recovery. For a Guardian file, either remove the LOCK or open the file for I-O. For an
OSS file, remove the LOCK.
Purge data from file during OPEN failed with error nnn
READ operation failed with error nnn
READ WITH LOCK on file with read ahead or an OSS file
