Recovery. Correct the error and recompile.
Cause. A PICTURE string exceeds 30 ASCII characters when COBOL output is
requested.
Effect. The DDL compiler does not write the object to the COBOL source file.
Recovery. Shorten the PICTURE string and recompile; rebuild the dictionary if the
object in error is referenced by another object.
Cause. The length of primary key provided for a key-sequenced file exceeds 2048.
Effect. The DDL compiler rejects the object.
Recovery. Specify a primary key of length in the range of 1 to 2048 and recompile the
object.
Cause. For SPRs preceding T9100H01^ACA, this error occurs when the length of the
primary key provided for any key-sequenced file exceeds 255. Beginning with SPR
T9100H01^ACA, this error occurs only if the length of the primary key provided for a
format 1 key-sequenced file exceeds 255.
Effect. The DDL compiler rejects the object.
Recovery. Do one of the following:
1. Specify a primary key of length in the range of 1 to 255 and recompile the
object.
2. Beginning with SPR T9100H01^ACA, remove the OLDFUP_FILEFORMAT
command to change the format specification to file format 2. Then specify a
primary key of a length in the range of 1 to 2048 and recompile the object.
***ERROR*** PICTURE string exceeds COBOL max of 30
characters- object-name
***ERROR*** Primary key length must be in the range of 1 to
2048 for file format 2
***ERROR*** Primary key length must be in the range of 1 to
255
