| Error |
Probable Cause |
Recovery Suggestion |
|
| 101: Invalid message in dos packet |
|
|
|
| 102: Wrong dos packet returned |
|
|
|
| 103: Not enough memory available |
Not enough memory in your Amiga to carry out the operation. |
Close an unnecessary windows and aplications, then re-issue the command. If it still doesn't work, reboot. Memory may be sufficient, but fragmented. It is possible that you may need to add more RAM to your system. |
|
| 105: Process table full |
There is a limit to the number of possible processes. |
Stop one or more tasks. |
|
| 114: Bad template |
Incorrect command line. |
Verify the correct command format. |
|
| 115: Bad number |
The program was expecting a numerical argument. |
Verify the correct command format. |
|
| 116: Required argument missing |
Incorrect command line. |
Verify the correct command format. |
|
| 117: Value after keyword missing |
Incorrect command line. |
Verify the correct command format. |
|
| 118: Wrong number of arguments |
Incorrect command line. |
Verify the correct command format. |
|
| 119: Unmatched quotes |
Incorrect command line. |
Verify the correct command format. |
|
| 120: Argument line invalid or too long |
Your command line is incorrect or contains too many arguments. |
Verify the correct command format. |
|
| 121: File is not executable |
You misspelled the command name, or the file may not be a loadable (program or script) file.
|
Retype the filename and make sure that the file is a program file. In order to execute a script, either the s bit must
be set or the EXECUTE command must be used.
|
|
| 122: Invalid resident library |
You are trying to use commands with a previous version. |
Reboot with the current version of AmigaDOS. |
|
| 202: Object is in use |
The specified file or directory is already being used by another application. If an application is reading a file, no
other program can write to it, and vice versa.
|
Stop the other application that is using the file or directory, and re-issue the command.
|
|
| 203: Object already exists |
The name that you specified already belongs to another file or directory.
|
Use another name, or delete the existing file or directory, and replace it.
|
|
| 204: Directory not found |
AmigaDOS cannot find the directory you specified. You have made a typing or spelling error.
|
Check the directory name (use DIR if necessary). Re-issue the command.
|
|
| 205: Object not found |
AmigaDOS cannot find the file or device you specified. You may have made a typing or spelling error.
|
Check the filename (use DIR) or the device name (use INFO). Re-issue the command.
|
|
| 206: Invalid window description |
This occurs when specifying a window size for a Shell, ED, or ICONX window. You may have made the window too big or too
small, or may have omitted an argument. This error also occurs with the NEWSHELL command if you supply a device name
that is not a window.
|
Re-issue the window specification. |
|
| 207: Object too large |
|
|
|
| 209: Packet request type unknown |
You have asked a device handler to attempt an operation it cannot do. For example, the console handler cannot rename
anything.
|
Check the request code passed to device handlers for the appropriate request.
|
|
| 210: Object name invalid |
There is an invalid character in the filename or the filneame is too long.
|
Re-type the name, taking care not to use any invalid characters or exceed the maximum length.
|
|
| 211: Invalid object lock |
You have used something that is not a valid lock. |
Check that your code only passes valid locks to AmigaDOS calls that expect locks.
|
|
| 212: Object is not of required type |
You may have specified a filename for an operation that requires a directory name, or vice versa.
|
Verify the correct command format. |
|
| 213: Disk not validated |
If you have just inserted a disk, the disk validation process may be in progress. It is also possible that the disk is
corrupt.
|
If you have just inserted the disk, wait for the validation process to finish. This may take less than a minute for a
floppy disk, or up to several minutes for a hard disk. If the disk is corrupt, it cannot be validated. In this case
retrieve the disk's files and copy them to another disk.
|
|
| 214: Disk is write protected |
The plastic tab is in the write-protect position. |
Remove the disk, move the tab to the writeable position, and re-insert the disk, or use a different disk.
|
|
| 215: Rename across devices attempted |
RENAME only changes a filename on the same volume. You can use RENAME to move a file from one directory to another, but
you cannot move files from one volume to another.
|
Use COPY to copy the file to the destination volume. Delete it from the source volum, if desired. Then use RENAME.
|
|
| 216: Directory not empty |
This error occurs if you attempt to delete a directory that contains files or sub-directories.
|
If you are sure that you want to delete the complete directory, and all of the file and sub-directories within it, use
the ALL option of DELETE.
|
|
| 217: Too many levels |
You have exceeded the limit of 15 soft links. |
Reduce the number of soft links. |
|
| 218: Device (or volume) is not mounted |
If the device is a floppy disk, it has not been inserted in a drive, If it is another type of device, it has not been
mounted with MOUNT, or the name is mispelled.
|
Insert the correct floppy disk, mount the device, check the spelling of the device name, or revise your Mountlist file.
|
|
| 219: Seek failure |
You have attempted to call SEEK with invalid arguments. |
Make sure that you only SEEK within the file. You cannot SEEK outside the bounds of the file.
|
|
| 220: Comment is too long |
Your filenote has exceeded the maximum number of characters (79).
|
Use a shorter filenote. |
|
| 221: Disk is full |
There is not enough room on the disk to perform the requested operation.
|
Delete some unnecessary files or directories, or use a different disk.
|
|
| 222: Object is protected from deletion |
The d (deleteable) protection bit of the file or directory is clear.
|
If you are certain that you want to delete the file or directory, use PROTECT to set the d protection bit or use the FORCE
option of DELETE.
|
|
| 223: File is write protected |
The w (writeable) protection bit of the file is clear. |
If you are certain that you want to overwrite the file, use PROTECT to set the w protection bit of the file.
|
|
| 224: File is read protected |
The r (readable) protection bit of the file is clear. |
Use PROTECT to set the r protection bit of the file. |
|
| 225: Not a valid DOS disk |
The disk in the drive is not an AmigaDOS disk, it has not been formatted, or it is corrupt.
|
Check to make sure you are using the correct disk. If you know the disk worked before, use a disk recovery program such as
??????? to salvage its files. If the disk has not been formatted, use FORMAT to do so.
|
|
| 226: No disk in drive |
The disk is not properly inserted in the specified drive. |
Insert the appropriate disk in the specified drive. |
|
| 232: No more entries in directory |
This indicates that the AmigaDOS call EXNEXT has no more entries in the directory you are examining.
|
Stop calling EXNEXT. |
|
| 233: Object is soft link |
You tried to perform an operation on a soft link that should only be performed on a file or directory.
|
AmigaDOS uses Action/Read/Link to resolve the soft link and retries the operation.
|
|
| 234: Object is linked |
|
|
|
| 235: Bad loadfile hunk |
The loaded program is corrupted |
Load a new or original copy of the program. |
|
| 236: Function not implemented |
You have attempted to execute a function that is not yet active. |
Wait until the next release of the software. |
|
| 240: Record not locked |
|
|
|
| 241: Record lock collision |
Another application is accessing the database |
Try accessing the database again. |
|
| 242: Record lock timeout |
Another application has the database entry locked. |
Try again or quit the other application and retry. |
|
| 243: Record unlock error |
|
|
|
| 303: Buffer overflow |
Ocurs if pattern matching string is too long. |
Make pattern matching string shorter. |
|
| 304: ***Break |
Occurs if program stopped via Ctrl+C. |
No recovery |
|
| 305: File not executable |
The e (executable) protection bit of the file is clear. |
Use PROTECT to set the e protection bit of the file. |
|
| 306: Operation not permitted on a pipe |
|
|
|
| 307: Pipe connection is broken |
|
|
|
| 308: Requested operation would block |
|
|
|
| 309: Supplied signal bit number was invalid |
|
|
|
