Messages

Zen can return a variety of messages to users. The messages are documented here in alphabetic order by category. Some of the messages listed may be generated by utilities that are not part of your Zen distribution.

Messages are not the same as status codes (see Status Codes). 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.

Some messages refer to status codes, as in the following example:

Error Accessing INDEX.DDF. Status = nn

The status code is tied to a particular component, and it varies depending on the nature and source of the error. The value for nn or xx refers to a software-supplied number (for example, a status code, operation code, or number of records) and xxxx refers to a software-supplied name (for example, a filename, a data type or key type, or a command).

The messages are arranged according to the originating component. The following table lists the prefixes for each type of message.

Prefix	Type of Code
(none)	Generic Messages
BREQUTIL	Requester Utility Messages
BUTIL	Maintenance Utility Messages
MKDE	MicroKernel Engine Messages
REBUILD	Rebuild Utility Messages
VSS	VSS Writer

(No prefix)

Generic Messages

The following messages may be returned by more than one utility or component. These messages are not preceded by a component prefix or number.

Bfloat and Float Fields Must Be 4 or 8 Bytes

You have defined a FLOAT or BFLOAT column with a size other than 4 or 8 bytes. Change the column size to 4 or 8 bytes.

Column level permissions not allowed on views

Permissions for individual columns of a view are not supported. You can GRANT or REVOKE permissions for the entire view.

First and Second Password Entries Do Not Match, Please Retype

The password you entered the second time is not the same as the first one you specified. Specify and verify your password again.

Incorrect Parameter

The Client Requester returns this message if it encounters an error while loading at a DOS client machine. You specified an invalid configuration option. For information about configuration properties and specifying the configuration options, see Advanced Operations Guide.

Insufficient Memory

The Client Requester returns this message if it encounters an error while loading at a DOS client machine. The Requester cannot allocate enough memory for the configuration options specified. Ensure that the client machine has enough memory to load all the programs you want to run.

Invalid Load File Format. End of Record Marker Not Found

The Maintenance utility (BUTIL) encountered an invalid record terminator in the sequential load file. The Maintenance utility expects a carriage return/line feed at the end of each record in a load file. This error usually occurs because the length specified at the beginning of the sequential record is incorrect.

Local Engine Is Already Loaded

The Client Requester returns this message if it encounters an error while loading at a DOS client machine. A local engine (XQL v2.11 or earlier) is loaded at the machine. You cannot load the older local engine and the newer Requester at the same time.

Must Have DOS 3.1 or Greater

The Client Requester returns this message if it encounters an error while loading at a DOS client machine. The Requesters require DOS v3.1 or later.

Only Master user name can be specified in Execute As clause

The clause “WITH EXECUTE AS ‘Master’,” which can be used in the creation of a trusted view or stored procedure, can contain only “Master” as the user name. No other user name is permissible.

Redirection List Not Large Enough

The SQL Requester returns this message if it encounters an error while loading at a DOS client machine, and it cannot store all the redirected devices in its internal redirection list. Increase the value for the /R configuration option.

Specifying EXECUTE privilege for a Table is illegal

Table permissions do not include EXECUTE.

Specifying REFERENCES or EXECUTE privilege for a view is illegal

View permissions do not include REFERENCES or EXECUTE.

Specifying SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE or REFERENCES privilege for a Procedure is illegal

Stored procedures permissions do not include SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE or REFERENCES.

SQL Requester Is Already Loaded

The SQL Requester returns this message if you try to load the Requester when it is already loaded at the DOS client machine.

BREQUTIL

Requester Utility Messages

This section lists the messages that the Client Requester utilities generate.

BREQUTIL-8: MicroKernel or MKDE Requester is not loaded

You must load the MicroKernel or a MKDE Requester before you can perform a MKDE operation.

BREQUTIL-9: MKDE operation nn was unsuccessful. The number of the applicable MKDE status code is nn

See Status Codes for a description of status code nn, where nn is the number of the status code.

BREQUTIL-16: MicroKernel or MKDE Requester cannot be removed from memory while the MKDE is loaded

If you want to unload the MicroKernel or MKDE Requester, unload the MKDE first.

BUTIL

Maintenance Utility Messages

The following messages are specific to the Maintenance utility.

BUTIL-1: Message file initialization failed

Only BUTIL.EXE in DOS returns this message. The utility could not find the BUTILDOS.MSG file, which contains messages that the utility uses.

BUTIL-2: Message file initialization failed. BUTIL was unable to access BTIUTILD.MSG

Only BUTIL.EXE in DOS returns this message. The utility could not find the BTIUTILD.MSG file, which contains messages that the utility uses. Ensure that you installed the Transactional engine for DOS correctly.

BUTIL-6: The BUTIL command is invalid

The syntax of the command you entered is incorrect. Verify the syntax before reentering the command.

BUTIL-8: The command completed, but one or more errors occurred

An error occurred when you executed a command that performed a number of MicroKernel operations. These commands include COPY, LOAD, or CLONE. This message is accompanied by additional messages that can help you identify the problem.

BUTIL-9: The command did not complete due to an unrecoverable error

Verify that the syntax you entered is correct before reentering the command. This message is accompanied by additional messages that can help you identify the problem.

BUTIL-10: The command line contains a syntax error

The syntax of the command you entered is incorrect. Verify the syntax before reentering the command.

BUTIL-11: The command line requires the index file

If you specify the BUTIL -INDEX or -SAVE command (modified by the Y parameter) to the Maintenance utility, you must specify the full pathname of an external index file.

BUTIL-12: The command line requires the key number

If you specify the DROP command or the SAVE command (modified by the N parameter) to the Maintenance utility, you must specify the key number of the key you want to drop or by which you want to save the data file.

BUTIL-13: The key size for key of type xxxx is invalid

In a description file, the specified value of the Key Length element for a particular key is incorrect. Ensure that the value of each Key Length element is appropriate for the matching Key Type element.

BUTIL-14: The file that caused the error was <filename>

This is an informative message that identifies the file that caused the error.

BUTIL-15: Error occurred on key segment descriptor xxx of description file

An error occurred when the Maintenance utility attempted to read the key segment descriptor portion of the description file. Ensure that the elements that describe the specified key segment are valid.

BUTIL-16: BUTIL could not open the description file

Before attempting to reenter the CREATE, INDEX, or SINDEX commands, ensure that the file exists and that you specify the correct full pathname.

BUTIL-18: An error occurred during access of the sequential file

Ensure that the source file is valid.

BUTIL-19: BUTIL could not open the alternate collating sequence file

Ensure that you assigned a valid pathname to the Alternate Collating Sequence filename element in the description file.

BUTIL-20: An error occurred during access of the alternate collating sequence file

Ensure that the information in the alternate collating sequence file is formatted correctly.

BUTIL-21: The file version is earlier than 6.0

The RECOVER command cannot recover data from a Btrieve v5.x file.

BUTIL-23: The /D parameter specified to the Requester was too small for BUTIL to receive the entire record. BUTIL is writing only nn bytes

The Maintenance utility is writing only as many bytes as the value of the /D option allows. If you want the utility to write all the bytes in the record, specify a value for the /D option that is at least as large as the affected record.

BUTIL-25: The /D parameter specified to BUTIL was too small for BUTIL to receive any part of the record

You specified an invalid value for the Requester /D option. Go to the configuration properties to increase the value specified.

BUTIL-26: The data buffer is too small to hold any part of the record

The MicroKernel cannot return any data in the data buffer because the data buffer is too small to hold it. Go to the configuration properties to increase the value specified for the Largest Record Size configuration option.

BUTIL-27: An error occurred during the access of the variable page. BUTIL is writing the obtainable portion of the variable page.

An error occurred during the recovery of a file with variable-length records. The file is corrupt.

BUTIL-30: The key position cannot exceed the record length

The range of the specified key position is invalid. The key position you specify on a MicroKernel Engine call must be within the range of the record’s length. For example, for a record that is 100 bytes long, a key position of 50 is within the correct range. However, a key position of 150 is not.

BUTIL-31: The key position plus key length cannot exceed the record length

The range of the key position you specified is invalid. The key position of a key plus its length cannot be larger than the record length. Verify that the key is defined so that its position plus its length does not exceed the record length.

BUTIL-32: The key length must be an even number for key type xxxx

You specified an invalid key length for the key type. Some key types must contain an even number of bytes. Specify a valid Key Length element.

BUTIL-36: The page size must be a multiple of 512, from 512 to 4,096

The page size you specified is invalid. Specify a page size based on file versions shown in the following table.

Page Size (bytes)	File Version
Page Size (bytes)	Before 9.0	9.0	9.5	13.0
512	X	X
1024	X	X	X
1536	X	X
2048	X	X	X
2560	X	X
3072	X	X
3584	X	X
4096	X	X	X	X
8192		X	X	X
16384			X	X

BUTIL-37: The record length cannot exceed the page size

The record length you specified is invalid. In the description file, the record length you specified for the Record Length element is larger than the page size you specified for the Page Size element. Specify a record length that is smaller than the page size or increase the page size.

BUTIL-38: The record length must be at least 4 and no greater than 4,096

Specify a record length between 4 and the maximum as shown in the following table.

File Version	Maximum Record Length (bytes)
5.x	4096
6.x or 7.x	4088
8.x	4086
9.0	8182
9.5	16372
13.0	16364

Internal overhead for page data is as follows, in bytes:

• Pre-8.x file format = 8

• 8.x file format = 10 (4096 - 10 = 4086)

• 9.0 file format = 10 (8192 - 10 = 8182)

• 9.5 file format = 12 (16384 - 12 = 16372)

• 13.0 file format = 20 (16384 - 20 = 16364)

Note that it is advisable to leave some margin and not to use every available byte, since the amount of overhead may increase in future file formats. For more information, see Record Length in Zen Programmer’s Guide.

BUTIL-41: The alternate collating sequence cannot be found

The Maintenance utility cannot find the alternate collating sequence file you specified in the definition file. Verify that the alternate collating sequence file exists and that the name is correct in the definition file.

BUTIL-43: The file exists, but the Replace option was not specified

The Maintenance utility did not create a file when you specified the BUTIL -CREATE command because the file already exists. To recreate this file, specify the Replace Existing File element in the description file as Y.

BUTIL-44: The file access error nn occurred for file filename

The Maintenance utility returns the appropriate status code and filename for a file on which a file access error occurred during the beginning or end of continuous operation. The corrective measure depends on the status code received. See Status Codes for a description of status code nn.

BUTIL-45: The number of duplicate keys must be between 1 and 119

Check the value specified for the Duplicate Key element in the description file.

BUTIL-47: BUTIL cannot open the command file

Ensure that the command file exists and that you specified the command file location and filename correctly.

BUTIL-48: The command file is empty

Specify the desired commands in the command file before attempting to use the command file again. In addition, ensure you specified the correct command filename.

BUTIL-49: The command file exceeds 1,000 bytes

A command file cannot contain more than 1,000 bytes. Verify that the command file adheres to this requirement.

BUTIL-50: An internal error caused BUTIL to terminate

The Maintenance utility detected an internal diagnostic error that caused it to terminate.

BUTIL-70: The MKDE error nn occurred on closing a file

The Maintenance utility returns this status code while closing a file. The corrective measure depends on the status code received. See Status Codes for a description of status code nn.

BUTIL-74: MKDE error nn was returned for the Stop Command

This message applies only to the DOS environment. The Maintenance utility returns this status code after you issue the BUTIL -STOP command. The corrective measure depends on the status code received. See Status Codes for a description of status code nn.

BUTIL-76: When BUTIL wrote the Page Allocation Table at page #nn, an error occurred

The Maintenance utility returns this message while salvaging a file if the file is corrupt, or when a hardware error occurs.

BUTIL-77: When BUTIL wrote a mirror copy of the Page Allocation Table at page #nn, an error occurred

The Maintenance utility returns this message while salvaging a file if the file is corrupted, or when a hardware error occurs.

BUTIL-101: The list of files that were not processed is: list

The Maintenance utility returns this error during the ROLLFWD operation if the utility encounters a file that cannot be rolled forward. The utility stops rolling forward and lists the remaining files not processed.

If you receive this message in conjunction with the Maintenance utility message number 103, restore the missing log segment and any log segments created after it to the log directory. If you cannot restore all missing log segments, restore as many as possible. Then, perform the ROLLFWD operation and specify the segment_number parameter of the earliest log segment you could restore.

BUTIL-102: A Roll Forward error occurred

An internal error occurred while the MicroKernel was rolling forward files.

BUTIL-103: Log segment number nn is missing

The Maintenance utility returns this error during ROLLFWD operation if you do not specify a segment_number parameter and one of the files to be rolled forward has a Restore Segment Number that indicates a log segment number that the MicroKernel cannot find.

BUTIL-131: BUTIL was unable to create or open the sequential file

The Maintenance utility returns this message when it is unable to create or open the specified file. Check the sequential file to make sure it exists and has the read-only attribute set.

BUTIL-132: The disk volume is full

You must have more disk space to create or enlarge any data files.

BUTIL-134: BUTIL was unable to create or open the new file

MKDE

MicroKernel Engine Messages

This following list of messages are generated by the MicroKernel. They use the prefix MKDE for MicroKernel Database Engine.

MKDE-12: The value specified for the –option is invalid

In Zen Control Center, enter the correct value for the configuration properties setting. For versions before PSQL 9, enter the correct value in the bstart.ncf, bti.ini, or bti.cfg file. Note that engine configuration settings reside in the Microsoft registry on Windows platforms and in the Zen registry for Linux platforms.

MKDE-13: The option specified is not a valid option

Remove the invalid option from the bstart.ncf, bti.ini, or bti.cfg file. Note that MicroKernel Engine configuration settings reside in the registry on Windows platforms and in the Zen registry for Linux platforms.

MKDE-16: There is insufficient memory to load the MicroKernel Engine

The system has insufficient memory to allow the MicroKernel to load as it is configured. Use the configuration properties to reconfigure the MicroKernel to use less memory, or unload any unnecessary applications.

MKDE-20: The log file filename cannot be written. Check disk space

If the disk is full, free some space by deleting any unnecessary files. When an error occurs while writing to the transaction log file, the MicroKernel attempts to resume transaction logging after every update to a data file containing system data. Therefore, when the condition causing the error is corrected (for example, when more disk space is made available), the MicroKernel automatically resumes transaction logging.

MKDE-25: The file filename is rolling back

Rolling back is the procedure the MicroKernel uses to restore a file to a consistent state after a system crash. This procedure undoes the most recent changes to the file (changes in the most recent system transaction).

MKDE-51: Program initialization failed; the program was not loaded

This is an informative message that the MicroKernel returns when an error prevents the MicroKernel from loading. Another message accompanies this one and provides more specific information about the nature of the error.

MKDE-57: The file filename cannot be created in the log segment directory xxxx

While initializing, the MicroKernel could not find the specified transaction log segment directory, so it did not load. Ensure that the directory exists and that the MicroKernel has rights to it. Use the configuration properties to specify the transaction log directory.

MKDE-58: The file filename cannot be opened in the log segment directory xxxx

While initializing, the MicroKernel could not open the specified file in the transaction log segment directory, so it did not load. Ensure that the directory and file exist and that the MicroKernel has rights to it. Another possibility is that someone has opened the file with an exclusive lock. Use the Monitor utility to see if another user has locked the file.

MKDE-59: The log segment file filename cannot be created

The MicroKernel could not create the specified transaction log segment file. Ensure that you have enough disk space and that the MicroKernel has rights to the file. Another possibility is that someone has opened the file with an exclusive lock. Use the Monitor utility to see if another user has locked the file.

This error can occur while the MicroKernel is loading, or later, during normal operations. If it occurs while the MicroKernel is loading, the loading fails and no operations are possible until the problem is corrected. If the error occurs later, during normal operations, there are some additional issues to consider.

If the MicroKernel is already loaded when an error occurs creating the transaction log file, it ceases transaction logging; however, the MicroKernel attempts to resume transaction logging after every update to a data file containing system data. Therefore, when the condition causing the error is corrected (for example, when more disk space is made available), the MicroKernel automatically resumes transaction logging.

MKDE-75: The log file format is invalid

The MicroKernel returns this message when the log segment file format is incompatible. Ensure that the version of the MicroKernel doing the roll forward is the same as the version of the MicroKernel that created the log file.

MKDE-76: An Open operation failed on “xxxx” with MKDE error nn

The MicroKernel returns this message during roll forward operations when an engine error occurs. The MicroKernel returns the specified status code for the specified file. See Status Codes for a description of status code nn.

MKDE-77: An unexpected MKDE error nn occurred on INSERT to “xxxx”

The MicroKernel returns this message during roll forward operations when an Insert error occurs. The MicroKernel returns the specified status code for the specified file. See Status Codes for a description of status code nn.

MKDE-78: An unexpected MKDE error nn occurred on UPDATE in “xxxx”

The MicroKernel returns this message during roll forward operations when an Update error occurs. The MicroKernel returns the specified status code for the specified file. See Status Codes for a description of status code nn.

MKDE-79: An unexpected MKDE error nn occurred on DELETE from “xxxx”

The MicroKernel returns this message during roll forward operations when a Delete error occurs. The MicroKernel returns the specified status code for the specified file. See Status Codes for a description of status code nn.

MKDE-80: The system is out of memory

The MicroKernel returns this message when the server has insufficient memory to allow the program to operate. Unload any unnecessary applications and retry the roll forward operation.

MKDE-81: An internal error nn occurred

The MicroKernel returns this message when an internal error occurs. Try to perform the operation again.

MKDE-82: An unexpected MKDE error nn occurred on GET EQUAL in “xxxx”

The MicroKernel returns this message during roll forward operations when a Get Equal error occurs. The MicroKernel returns the specified status code for the specified file. See Status Codes for a description of status code nn.

MKDE-83: The log file is corrupt

The MicroKernel returns this message when the log segment file is damaged and unreadable. The Log Segment Manager cannot perform roll forward operations using this log segment.

MKDE-84: An error occurred while reading the log file

The MicroKernel returns this message when an error prevents the program from reading the log segment file. The MicroKernel cannot perform roll forward operations using this log segment.

MKDE-85: An unexpected MKDE error nn occurred on CREATE INDEX to filename

The MicroKernel returns this message during roll forward operations when an error occurs on a CREATE INDEX operation for the specified file. You may have a corrupted file, or your log file may be corrupt. See Status Codes for a description of status code nn.

MKDE-86: An unexpected MKDE error nn occurred on DROP INDEX to filename

The MicroKernel returns this message during roll forward operations when an error occurs on a DROP INDEX operation for the specified file. You may have a corrupted file, or your log file may be corrupt. See Status Codes for a description of status code nn.

The MicroKernel returns this message when it cannot create the Zen event log, the file named zen.log. Make sure that the home directory exists and that the disk on your computer is not full. Also, ensure that the MicroKernel has rights to the home directory and event log file.

MKDE-2039: System Error: nn.nn.nn

The MicroKernel returns this message when a system error occurs.

The MicroKernel Engine uses the System Error messages to record unexpected errors resulting from an operating system call made by the engine. For example, if an error is returned when the engine makes a file I/O call to the operating system, that error is recorded in the zen.log file as a system error.

The format of a system error is id.op.rc where:

id	Unique System Error identifier
op	Btrieve operation being performed at the time
rc	any unexpected return code from the operating system.

The id corresponds to a section of code in the MKDE where the operating system call took place. There are different ID ranges depending on which engine is being used:

100-299	Common source base
600-699	Windows 32-bit platforms

The common code base contains all the file I/O requests, variable allocations, caching, and so on. The platform specific ranges cover other file open, close, read, and lock requests. These codes can guide us to the portion of the engine code that was executing when the System Error occurred. For example, IDs ranging from 110 to 124 correspond to the I/O Subsystem of the MicroKernel where disk I/O calls are made, and system errors with these ids usually correspond to file corruption problems. A list of IDs is not available publicly because a list without the specific engine and knowledge of the code would not have much value.

The second piece of the system error is the operation code. This corresponds to the Btrieve request that was being processed when the error occurred. For example, a 5 is a GetEqual operation. See Btrieve API Guide for more information about Btrieve operation codes. If the system error occurs while the MicroKernel Engine is performing some task that is not specifically associated with a Btrieve operation, the op will be set to -1.

The third piece of the system error is the OS return code. The meaning of the values reported here varies depending on the OS call made and the type of failure that occurred. A return code value of 0 for different IDs is likely to have different meanings, but in each case the OS did not return an actual error code. An example of a System Error where the OS return code is zero is when the OS call returns successfully, but the data returned by the call is not what was expected. In many cases, the appearance of an occasional System Error does not indicate a problem. It is likely that the operation being performed was retried without an error and processing continued normally.

If there is a problem that would cause an interruption in normal operation, the System Error would correspond to a Zen status code returned to the application. For example, attempting to access a physically corrupt file will produce a system error such as 116.5.0 and the application will receive a status code 2.

If you experience repeated occurrences of a specific system error, along with abnormal behavior of your application, and you do not find any documentation in our knowledge base about the error, you should contact Zen with a description of the system error and the symptoms of failure in the application, and we will provide more details about the system error in question.

In addition, you can check the Microsoft website for a list of Win32 error codes.

The rebuild process outputs the following information to provide a status of its operation.

REBUILD is reading the first record from the old file.

REBUILD is inserting records into the new file.

REBUILD is reading records from the old file.

REBUILD is putting back indexes on the new file.

REBUILD-27: The utility could not create the temporary file in the output directory during conversion

Verify the directory and that the person running the rebuild utility has read/write permissions to the directory.

REBUILD-31: The utility could not create file_name. The MicroKernel Database Engine status code was code_number.

The rebuild utility also outputs the following information to help you troubleshoot the operation:

REBUILD copied a total of number records.

The rebuild operation start time is time.

REBUILD-34: Key number code_number is invalid

Verify that the keys in the file to be rebuilt are valid.

REBUILD-35: Page size page_size is invalid. The page size will be changed to page_size. The rebuild process has ended.

The rebuild utility detected an invalid page size for the desired format and changed the page to a valid one.

REBUILD-38: The utility was terminated by the user

The rebuild utility was stopped.

REBUILD-39: The utility may not be unloaded. Use Control-C to stop the utility.

An attempt to stop the rebuild utility could not be honored by the utility. Use Control-C to stop the utility.

REBUILD-44: The utility could not clone file_name. The MicroKernel Database Engine status code was code_number.

Check the meaning of the status code to help determine the result of the rebuild operation.

REBUILD-45: The command file file_name does not have an <end> or [end] delimiter.

Each entry in the command file must contain the utility parameters (if any) and the set of files to convert followed by <end> or [end].

REBUILD-48: The utility could not initialize the user interface library

Close other applications to free up memory.

REBUILD-63: The utility could not initialize the localized message table

Close other applications to free up memory.

REBUILD-65: The utility could not open file file_name for the following reason:

Take corrective action based on the reason provided and try the rebuild operation again.

REBUILD-66: Operation(s) complete. See file_name for results.

Review the item specified for the results.

REBUILD-67: Errors occurred. See file_name for results.

Review the results for the errors. The rebuild operation also provides the following information to help with troubleshooting:

File: file_name Records Processed: number_processed

REBUILD-68: Status code code_number was returned while copying records from the following file: file_name.

Check the meaning of the status code to help determine the result of the rebuild operation.

REBUILD-69: Internal status internal_code was returned while copying records from the following file: file_name

Check the meaning of the status code to help determine the result of the rebuild operation. If the internal status code is not listed in the Zen documentation, contact Actian Technical Support.

REBUILD-71: The file file_name is already in a later format than the current MicroKernel Database Engine setting

Configure the MicroKernel to create files using the file format version to which you want the specified file to be converted. See Create File Version in Advanced Operations Guide.

REBUILD-72: The utility only converts files to file_format or later

Verify the file format to which you want to convert the file.

REBUILD-73: The MicroKernel Database Engine is configured to create files in the same format as the source file. This is allowed only for file_format or later files.

Configure the MicroKernel to create files using the file format version to which you want the specified file to be converted. See Create File Version in Advanced Operations Guide.

REBUILD-74: The source file file_name does not contain system key. The utility could not rebuild the file as specified by user. The MicroKernel Database Engine returned status code_number.

Check the meaning of the status code to help determine the result of the rebuild operation.

REBUILD-75: File_format is not a valid file format value. Valid inputs for file format parameter are 6, 7, 8, 9, 95 and 13.

Specify a valid file format value and try the rebuild operation again.

REBUILD-78: The logfile specified, file_name, is not valid. It is longer than maximum path length allowed.

Specify a shorter full path name for the log file.

REBUILD-79: Invalid database name specified. Database name cannot be longer than length bytes.

Verify the database name and try the rebuild operation again.

REBUILD-80: Password specified is longer than the maximum limit of length bytes
