>>SUMMARY:
List of problems that may occur when loading BTRIEVE.EXE. This is
extracted from Btrieve operations manual and may not be complete.
>>MORE INFORMATION:
INSUFFICIENT MEMORY FOR PARAMETERS SPECIFIED
Btrieve cannot
allocate the minimum number of buffers required within the
specified amount of memory. Either reduce the Page Size
option (/P) or increase the Memory Size option (/M). Another
possibility is that your system does not have enough available
memory to load Btrieve at the requested size. Either reduce the
value for the /M or /B options, eliminate other memory resident
programs, or add more memory to your system.
INVALID COMPRESSION PARAMETER
The value specified for the Compression Buffer Size
start-up option is invalid. Valid values are from I to 64.
INVALID FILE PARAMETER
The value specified for the Open Files
start-up option is invalid. Valid values are from 1 to 255.
INVALID LOCK PARAMETER
The value specified for the Number of
Locks start-up option is invalid. Valid values are from 1 to 255.
INVALID MEMORY PARAMETER
An invalid size was specified for the
/M start-up option. The memory size must be a number between 9
and 64 inclusive. Depending on the other options you specify,
the minimum memory size you can specify may be greater than nine.
INVALID PAGE SIZE PARAMETER
An invalid page size was specified
for the /P start-up option. The page size must be a multiple of
512 bytes, but no greater than 4096 bytes.
INVALID PRE-IMAGE DEVICE PARAMETER
The drive letter specified
for the /I option does not refer to a valid drive.
INVALID PREIMAGE MEMORY PARAMETER
Only values between 1 and 64
are valid for the /B start-up option.
INVALID TRANSACTION FOR PARAMETER
Btrieve cannot create, read,
or write the transaction file at the location specified by the /T
start-up option. Verify that a valid path name was specified for
the /T option, that the disk contains available space and is not
write protected, and that you have access rights to the specified
location. If the correct location was specified and your system
failed during a transaction, Btrieve cannot recover. You will
have to replace all files within the transaction with their most
recent backup.
PROGRAM ALREADY LOADED

been loaded --, --
UNABLE TO ACCESS BTRIEVE FOR TRANSACTION RECOVERY
