AR System diagnostic
messages
Diagnostic error and warning messages are included with AR System. Because
error checking is built into how AR System clients (for example, BMC Remedy
Administrator) interact with AR System server, you might see some of these
messages only with client applications that you create using the AR System API.
When problems occur, the system usually reports one or more error or warning
messages. These messages often provide you with information to determine the
cause of a problem. This guide lists and describes these messages.
NOTE
An online version of all messages and descriptions is available in the Error
Messages form.
Occasionally, it might not be clear from the diagnostic messages what you need to
do to correct a problem. This chapter describes common problems and outlines the
process you must follow to resolve each of these problems. If you are still unable
to resolve a problem or if you encounter a problem that is not covered in this
chapter, contact your Customer Support Services representative.
The following topics are provided:
11
Message reporting
All interactive AR System tools (BMC Remedy User, BMC Remedy Administrator,
BMC Remedy Alert, and BMC Remedy Import) report errors directly to the
terminal. If a tool fails during startup, the error messages are reported at the
command line from which the program was started.
AR System daemons send messages about all fatal system and database errors
to syslog as type user.err. To receive these messages, configure your syslog
instance (using syslog.conf) to direct all messages of type user.err to one or
more locations that you define (for example, to direct all messages to the
console, specify the console device as /dev/console, or direct all messages to a
file by specifying a complete path name).

For example, this is the syntax for specifying AR System message catalog location
(assuming the default language environment) on Solaris:
/usr/lib/locale/C/LC_MESSAGES/arsystem.cat
13
Use the NLSPATH environment variable to place the catalogs in a directory other
than in the default directory. For example, on Solaris, if the default catalog
directory is read-only, you can link to the catalogs by setting the NLSPATH
environment variable as follows:
setenv NLSPATH /usr/ar/locale/%N:/usr/lib/locale/%L/LC_MESSAGES/%N
NOTE
Include the default directory in the NLSPATH environment variable to make sure
that catalogs for other products are still accessible.
For more information about internationalizing message catalogs, see the
documentation supplied with your operating system.
Messages are returned by the server or the client. In general, messages with
numbers below 1000 are from the server, while messages 1000 or higher are from
the client. Errors above 10000 are defined by workflow (active links, filters, and
escalations) and might come from either the server or the client.
Make sure that the message catalogs exist, that they are in the appropriate
directory, and that the NLSPATH environment variable is set correctly on both the
server and the client.
Make sure that the setting of your LANG environment variable is set to the correct
language on both the server and the client. You can unset this variable, or you
can set it to the default value of C to cause the system to default to using the
English language catalog.
Make sure that the arsystem.cat file is readable by all. If you set up symbolic
links, each end of the link must be readable by all.

Error 59 cannot be localized because the user is not logged in when this message
would occur. As a result, AR System cannot apply the user's locale preference at
that point, so AR System does not have a way to obtain the locale to obtain the

AR System server terminated when a signal or exception was received by the server.
The server for AR System (arserverd) was terminated by a signal. The number following this
error is the signal that was received.
If the signal is 15, you can probably restart the server and continue to work. The process was killed
either accidently or intentionally by a user in your environment.

Error
Fields in set fields action incompatible with form for filter or escalation.
A fatal error occurred in the arserverd process. Details about the error are in an associated
message. A generic message indicates that the error was fatal, and the process is shutting down.
A file system error occurred while AR System was running a filter or escalation that logs
information to a file (using the Log to File action). An associated message detailing the reason for
the failure appears with this message. Processing continues, but logging to the log file is
suspended until the problem is corrected (see Error 23).
A failure was reported on an open or write action to the log file identified by Error 22. Additional
actions occurred to access this file, and the file is now accessible and can be written to. Any
operations between the message indicating a write failure (Error 22) and this message are not
included in the log file.
An error occurred while AR System was executing a filter or escalation that runs a process. An
associated message provides details. Verify that the process definition is correct. If necessary,
correct the process definition in the filter or escalation.
The filter or escalation being executed is trying to set values in fields that do not exist in the target
form. Fix the definition. Specify values only for fields that exist in the target form.
A common cause for this error is a filter or escalation that tries to assign a value to a field that
formerly existed on the form but was deleted after the definition was created.

Another copy of the server is already running on the same RPC socket.
Only one instance of AR System server can be run (on a specific RPC socket) on a computer at a
time. If a server is already running in this RPC socket, no action is required.
If the server is not running, you probably encountered a known problem with the NFS lock
manager on Sun workstations. At times, the lock manager keeps a lock active even when the
process holding the lock is no longer running. If no arserverd process is running, free the lock
by deleting the lock file. Start the arserverd process after this file is removed.

Error
A character field with a $MENU$ pattern is failing due to errors retrieving the character menu to
validate against.
A $MENU$ pattern is specified for a field with a character menu, and the server is encountering an
error while building the menu to verify the value against. The error can be due to one of the
following reasons:
The menu is built from a search against a form on a different server. The server restricts access
locally to the same server process for performance and consistency reasons. You cannot use a
$MENU$ pattern verification for a remote search.
The menu is built from a search against a local form, but the search is encountering an error
during retrieval.
The menu is built from a file, and the file cannot be found.
The menu is built using a direct SQL command against another server. The server restricts
access locally to the same server process for performance and consistency reasons. You cannot
use a $MENU$ pattern verification for a remote SQL command.
The menu is built using direct SQL against a local database, but the command is encountering

You tried to modify the contents of a core system field (Request ID, Create Date, Last Modified
By, Last Modified Date, or Status History). These fields are managed by AR System and cannot be
changed.
You requested permission information about a field. Only a user with administrator access can
retrieve permission information. No permission information is returned, but all other requested
information is retrieved.
You specified a Modify operation to the system, but there were no modifications specified. If the
command is being executed programmatically and there is potential for set operations with no
changes to be specified, this warning can be trapped and ignored in your program.
You tried to import one or more items (forms, filters, active links, escalations, or character menus)
to the current server. The listed item was not successfully imported. An associated message
indicates why the item was not imported. Fix the problem, and try to reimport the item.
You tried to retrieve a request that does not exist. If this message is received when retrieving an
item that was reported in a preceding retrieval, the item might have been deleted by another user.
The requested statistical operation found one or more NULL values in the fields that were being
used for the calculation. Because NULL fields contain no meaningful data for the calculation being
performed, only those fields that contain non-NULL values are included in the computation.

The filter definition contains multiple form links. This is an older definition, and the filter is linked
only to the first form in the list.
The filter definition uses an older syntax in which filters could be linked to multiple forms. The
new definition allows only a single form link. The filter is loaded, but only with access to the first
form in the list of forms. Ask the administrator to restructure the filter definition to see a single
form. If you need filters with the same actions, create multiple filters.

The server is inaccessible due to one of the following reasons:
There is a connectivity problem with the network. Issue a ping command to the server. If the
problem is with the network connection, you must solve all network connectivity problems
before you can use the AR System server. When the network connection problem is corrected,
you can successfully connect to the server.
If there is no network connectivity problem, make sure that the server process (arserverd) is
running. If it is not running, ask your AR System administrator to start it.
If the server is running, review the /etc/ar file (UNIX) or Login Information window
(Windows) on your computer to verify that the server is registered as one of the servers you can
access. If no entry is present in the file or window, add the entry.
If the connection is still unsuccessful after you eliminated these potential causes, shut down and
restart BMC Remedy User. The server might have been temporarily inaccessible.

The system was translating the contents of a group (for example, from the Group List [field ID
104], Assignee Group [field ID 112], or a dynamic field) from a text string into the internal format
of a sequence of IDs. The operation was occurring during the processing of a filter or escalation.
During the conversion, an error occurred. The likely cause of the failure is that the system
encounters a name that is not a defined group.
During import, a form defined itself as a join form. However, one or more key pieces of
information (such as the type of join or the primary or secondary form) are missing. The join form
definition is dependent upon complete information about the join, so it cannot be created.
During import, a form defined itself as a view form. However, one or more key pieces of
information (such as the table being referenced) are missing. The view form definition is
dependent upon complete information about the view, so it cannot be created.
With a join or view form, the field type specified in the field definition for a data field is not
appropriate for that form type. For example, if the form is a join form, all data fields must be
defined with a field type indicating that they are a join field, because there are no base data fields
when you are working with a join form.

The system encountered an error during a call to allocate memory. In general, this error occurs
when too many processes are running or when some processes grow to occupy most or all
available memory on your server. Recover the memory by shutting down unneeded processes or
by restarting processes that have been running for a while.
The -e or the -i option was specified as the last option on the command line. Both of these
command line options require the name of the macro to be run at start-up. Remove the option, or
specify a macro to go with the option.
The -p option was specified as the last option on the command line. This command line option
requires that the name of a parameter and the value for that parameter be supplied. Remove the
option, or specify a parameter and value to go with the option.
The -p option requires the name of a parameter followed by an equal sign followed by a value.
One or more parts of the definition are missing. If either the name or value contains spaces or
special characters, the value must be quoted to be treated as a single value on the command line.
The specified command line option is not recognized. See the Integrating with Plug-ins and ThirdParty Products guide for information about command line options.
Parameters can be specified only if you specify a macro first.
You specified a -p command line option that specifies values for parameters in a macro to be run
at startup. However, no macro is defined (by using the -e or -i options). If you specify parameters
to be used in a macro, specify the macro that uses them.
You cannot read the configuration fileARHOME variable may be set incorrectly.
Configuration information for your session is stored in a configuration file named config in the
directory indicated by the ARHOME environment variable. If no ARHOME environment variable is set,
it is in a directory named arHome under your UNIX login directory.
The program cannot read the contents of that file. Verify the setting of the ARHOME environment
variable if you defined an alternate directory. View the permissions on the file to make sure that
you have read access (and write access if you intend to update the configuration file).

larger than the maximum size allowed.
All statistics operations (except COUNT) require a field name. This name specifies the field the
operation is performed on. You must specify the field name (or arithmetic operation) on which
the operation is performed.
The value specified for the field name must be a field defined for the form, a numeric value, or
one of the numeric or date keywords. These are the only types of definitions allowed in the field
name for a statistical operation. Make sure that the spelling is correct, and update the field name
request to be a legal operation.
The indicated value was entered as a value for a field with a data type of real. The value is not a
legal real value. Change the value to a legal real value, and retry the operation.
A numeric field contains a nondigit value. You can specify digits only for integer (numeric) fields.
Change the value to a legal integer value, and retry the operation.
The value you specified for the numeric field is either smaller than the minimum size or larger
than the maximum size. Use BMC Remedy Administrator to confirm the size limits of the field
properties.

The following errors frequently occur when macros are converted to active links:
An error indicating that the qualifier could not be loaded might indicate (1) that specified fields
are not present or (2) that the field labels are referred to in the macro query but the conversion
process expects the field database names. Verify that the conversion of the query string to a
qualifier is correct.
An error indicating that the QBE cannot be loaded might indicate that the schema is
unavailable. See the following workaround.
The server is referred to by a keyword or field ID, and should be available to process QBE
queries. See the following workaround.
An error indicating that the QBE query could not connect to the server.
Workaround: The schema and server names are not available to queries and can be validated. The
schema and server names are represented by $field-id$. These values can be replaced with
specific values for conversion. After successful conversion, the administrator can see $fieldid$ by directly editing the Open Window action. When editing the Open Window action, the
administrator must choose the Advanced option, allowing the schema and server names to be
edited.
Another error that occurs when macros are converted is that the query is converted but some
field/value pairs that were present in the QBE part of the query are missing.
Workaround: Verify that the fields are display fields. Because your query is on field values in
database and display fields, the database does not contain any associated values. Display fields
should not be in a QBE and are ignored during conversion.

createdbecause the request against which the distributed process is run no longer exists.
Remove or disable the filter attempting the distributed operation, or reset the filter so it does not
execute on a delete operation.
