Message Explanation
AppleTalk network initialization failed; an
unexpected error occurred (error number)
FileMaker Pro Server can’t initialize AppleTalk.
AppleTalk network initialization failed;
AppleTalk is not enabled
FileMaker Pro Server detects that AppleTalk isn’t enabled. Be sure that AppleTalk is
enabled in the Chooser.

enough memory
There is insufficient memory to use AppleTalk. See “Mac OS system requirements”
on page 1-1 for RAM requirements.
Closing file filename due to a serious error
(error number)
Written when the specified file is closed by FileMaker Pro Server due to an error
condition. The file may need to be recovered in the FileMaker Pro application. See
FileMaker Pro User’s Guide for more information about recovering damaged files.
Could not pause file filename because of
outstanding database locks from guests.
FileMaker Pro Server is trying to get exclusive use of the file to pause it for a backup
but can’t because a user is changing the file. You can try the backup later, or close the
file to force the guest(s) to disconnect.
File filename compressed, freeing x blocks Written when the specified file has been successfully compressed, leaving
FileMaker Pro Server enough room to continue safely working with the file. (One
block equals 1,024 bytes.)
File filename compressed, but still nearly
full. Only x block(s) free.
Written when the specified file was compressed, but there isn’t enough room for
FileMaker Pro Server to continue safely working with the file. The administrator
should close the file, back it up, and take steps to reduce the size of the file.
File filename full, compression started When a FileMaker Pro file approaches the 2 GB file size limit, FileMaker Pro Server
attempts to compress it by reclaiming unused space in the file. This process is
automatic, and this message is written to the log file when the process begins.
