PERROR(1) MySQL Database System PERROR(1)

NAME

perror - explain error codes

SYNOPSIS

perror [ options] errorcode ...

DESCRIPTION

For most system errors, MySQL displays, in addition to an internal text message, the system error code in one of the following styles:
 
message ... (errno: #)
message ... (Errcode: #)
You can find out what the error code means by examining the documentation for your system or by using the perror utility.
perror prints a description for a system error code or for a storage engine (table handler) error code.
Invoke perror like this:
 
shell>  perror [options] errorcode ...
Example:
 
shell>  perror 13 64
OS error code  13:  Permission denied
OS error code  64:  Machine is not on the network
To obtain the error message for a MySQL Cluster error code, invoke perror with the --ndb option:
 
shell>  perror --ndb errorcode
The meaning of system error messages may be dependent on your operating system. A given error code may mean different things on different operating systems.
perror supports the following options.
 
•--help, --info, -I, -?
 
Display a help message and exit.
 
•--ndb
 
Print the error message for a MySQL Cluster error code.
 
•--silent, -s
 
Silent mode. Print only the error message.
 
•--verbose, -v
 
Verbose mode. Print error code and message. This is the default behavior.
 
•--version, -V
 
Display version information and exit.
