6 ar Diagnostic Messages
The ar utility produces messages when errors occur in command input or in data on
which the utility is operating. These messages are in alphabetic order.
Cause. The maximum size of an archive file is 128,073,728 bytes. If operations on the
archive file cause the file to exceed that size limit, the ar command returns an error
message,s and the archive file becomes corrupted because ar cannot create the
symbol table information.
Recovery. See the Guardian Procedure Errors and Messages Manual.
Cause. The maximum size of an archive file is 128,073,728 bytes. If operations on the
archive file cause the file to exceed that size limit, the ar command returns an error
message, and the archive file becomes corrupted because ar cannot create the
symbol table information.
Recovery. See the Guardian Procedure Errors and Messages Manual.
Cause. This is an advisory message. Object files for NonStop servers are linked
together using the linking program Binder. TNS/R object files are linked together using
the linking utility nld. ar attempts to build a symbol table for the archive so that the
linking program can determine the archive contents. A different symbol table is
required for each linking program, so ar cannot build a single symbol table when both
types of object files are represented in the archive. If the archive is not to be used for
linking, no action is required. The archive contains all the members specified.
Recovery. If the archive is to be used for linking, separate the members into two
archives, one containing TNS object files and the other containing TNS/R object files.
ar: archive: Guardian or User Defined Error 43
Unable to obtain disk space for file extent.
ar: archive: Guardian or User Defined Error 45
The resulting file size exceeds 128,073,728
bytes and the file is not a valid archive
file.
ar: cannot create archive symbol table due to ELF/TNS mix.
