Error Messages
SOCKERR 143 MESSAGE: PMERR = 14 Intrinsic : IPCCONNECT
CAUSE: INVALID FACILITIES SET OPT RECORD ENTRY — The
facility set passed as a parameter has not been found in the internal
facility set table.
ACTION: Use one of the facility sets defined in the configuration or add
a new one.
SOCKERR 146 MESSAGE: PMERR = 10 Intrinsic : IPCRECV
CAUSE: RESET EVENT OCCURRED ON X.25 CONNECTION. — An
unsolicited reset packet was received.
ACTION: Use IPCCONTROL (request 12) to examine the cause/diagnostic
field. The connection is still up and operational but some data may have
been lost.
SOCKERR 153 MESSAGE: PMERR = 3 Intrinsic : IPCCREATE
CAUSE: SOCKET IS ALREADY IN USE. — A single socket per network
interface can be created with the catch-all capability.
ACTION: Wait for catch-all socket to be released.
SOCKERR 156 MESSAGE: PMERR = 12 Intrinsic : IPCRECV
CAUSE: INTERRUPT EVENT OCCURRED ON X.25 CONNECTION.
— An interrupt packet was received.
ACTION: Use IPCCONTROL (request 12) to get interrupt data. The
connection is still up and operational.
SOCKERR 158 MESSAGE: PMERR = 18 Intrinsic : IPCRECV
CAUSE: CONNECTION REQUEST REJECTED BY REMOTE. — The
outgoing call was rejected either by the local DTC, the network, the
remote DTC or the remote host.
ACTION: Use IPCCONTROL (request 12) to retrieve the cause/diagnostic
field. Take action depending on cause/diagnostic using table given.
SOCKERR 160 MESSAGE: PMERR = 24 Intrinsic : IPCSEND, IPCCONTROL
CAUSE: INCOMPATIBLE WITH PROTOCOL STATE. — This
connection is currently in the reset state. Either a reset was sent and
the protocol is waiting for a reset confirmation, or a reset has been
received.
ACTION: If you issued the reset, then wait and reissue the call later.
Otherwise, issue IPCRECV> to complete an incoming reset.
