ODBC and JDBC error messages
Here are the basic formats of error messages you receive when working with FileMaker and
ODBC/JDBC.
ODBC error messages
Error messages can come from:
1 ODBC driver errors
1 FileMaker and FileMaker XDBC Listener errors
FileMaker ODBC error messages
An error that occurs in the FileMaker listener or data source includes the data source name, in the
following format:
[FileMaker] [FileMaker ODBC] message
For example, you might get the following message from your FileMaker data source:
[FileMaker] [FileMaker ODBC] Invalid Username/Password
If you get this type of error, you did something incorrectly with the database system. Check your
FileMaker documentation for more information or consult your database administrator.
Consecutive messages for errors in different columns can sometimes display an incorrect column
name.
JDBC error messages
The FileMaker JDBC driver reports errors to the calling application by returning SQLExceptions.
Error messages can come from:
1 JDBC driver errors
1 FileMaker and FileMaker XDBC Listener errors
FileMaker JDBC error messages
An error that occurs in the FileMaker listener or data source includes the data source name, in the
following format:
[FileMaker] [FileMaker JDBC] message
For example, you might get the following message from your FileMaker data source:
[FileMaker] [FileMaker JDBC] Invalid Username/Password
If you get this type of error, you did something incorrectly with the database system. Check your
FileMaker documentation for more information or consult your database administrator.
