Status Codes
A Reference to PSQL Status Codes
This chapter describes the status codes and messages generated by any of the components of PSQL.
Status codes are not the same as numbered messages (see Messages). Messages are returned to end users by utilities or specific components and generally begin with a prefix and a number. For example: MKDE-16: There is insufficient memory to load the MicroKernel Engine.
Status codes are returned to an application making a PSQL interface call. The application determines whether or not to display the status code to the user. Applications will often display status codes in addition to helpful messages about a problem that has occurred, but the application developer determines this. Many utilities provided with PSQL use transactional and relational access interfaces, and they may therefore return status codes as well as utility-specific messages.
Some messages include references to status codes.
The status codes appear in numeric order. The table below lists the numeric ranges for each type of code.
