System Error : (<Name> Processor) NERROR = N1, N2, N3

During a LUSAS analysis, checks are continually made on the integrity of data. There are two principal types of check…
  • Those resulting in warning and error messages due to a clearly definable problem source in either the data processing or the data itself
  • Those resulting in a System Error. These error types are typically non-specific and may be a result of...
    1. Machine dependent software problems
    2. Database corruption due to software bugs and/or hardware problems

Descriptive warning and/or error messages are not generally possible in this instance because of the non-specific nature of the trapped problem since a theoretically impossible software path has been traversed. On occurrence of such a system error, LUSAS will immediately set internal flags to terminate the solution at the earliest moment.

The system error message parameters are as follows…

Name

Name of the subroutine in which the problem was found
N1 An error number to identify which system error reported the problem (there may be a number of these in any subroutine)
N2 Value of an important parameter at the moment of termination
N3 Value of an important parameter at the moment of termination

If such a system error is experienced, customer support should be contacted and informed of the system error parameters. Having access to the source software code, they will be able to ascertain the general problem area and suggest remedial action.
