Summary of Error Codes—Error 5
Error Codes
069139, Update 1 to 40969 Tandem Computers Incorporated 3–7
2 INVALID-SESSION-ID
Field. IPC-RETN-CODE
Meaning. The request contained a session ID that could not be recognized by the
TRANSFER delivery system. Perhaps the IPC referenced a session that no longer
existed.
3 RQST-ERR
Field. PW-REPLY-CODE
Meaning. A request error occurred. This type of error indicates that something was
wrong in the data in the IPC header, and that the error probably does not apply to any
particular UOW. In certain cases, however, it might involve an individual UOW, for
example, one with an invalid UOW header. When this error occurs, the number of
response UOWs might be less than the number of UOWs in the request. For further
information, your application should examine the IPC-RETN-CODE field.
Caution If your application receives a value of 3 in the PW-REPLY-CODE field, full transaction backout with TMF
is recommended. If the transaction is not backed out, consistency in the TRANSFER database cannot be
guaranteed.
3 SERVICE-DENIED
Field. IPC-RETN-CODE
Meaning. Reserved for future use by Tandem Computers.
4 INVALID-UOW-HDR
Field. IPC-RETN-CODE
Meaning. Your request contained an invalid UOW header. This error occurs when the
previous UOW header specified the wrong size, or when you omitted the characters
UW from the UOW header, or when the UOW code in the UOW header is undefined
for the server class.
5 RQST-TOO-LONG
Field. IPC-RETN-CODE
