Appendix C
Recovering from Errors

This appendix provides information to help you deal with failures or errors that might occur during product installation or product use.

C.1 Failures During Product Installation

If errors occur during the installation, the system displays failure messages. For example, if the installation fails due to insufficient disk space, the following message appears:


There is not enough space for subset DCABASE280 
Compaq COBOL DCABASE280 will not be loaded. 

Errors can occur during the installation if any of the following conditions exist(s):

For descriptions of error messages generated by these conditions, see the Tru64 UNIX documentation on system messages, recovery procedures, and software installation. For information on system software requirements, see Section 1.4.3.

C.2 Failures During Compaq COBOL Use

If you encounter a problem while using Compaq COBOL, see the section on Troubleshooting Tips in the Release Notes. If the problem is unresolved, report it to Compaq.

If you have a Software Product Services Support Agreement, contact your Compaq Customer Support Center (CSC), either by telephone or using the electronic means provided with your support agreement (such as DSNlink). The CSC provides telephone support for high-level advisory and remedial assistance. When you initially contact the CSC, please indicate the following:

When you submit information electronically or are speaking on the phone to the appropriate Compaq COBOL support specialist, you can provide more detailed information. The information should include the specific commands used to compile and link the program, the error messages displayed, and relevant detailed information (possibly including source program listings). Please attempt to narrow the cause of the problem to a specific module or lines of code.

CSC personnel may ask for additional information, such as listings of any command files, INCLUDE files, relevant data files, and so forth. If the program is longer than 50 lines, submit a copy of it electronically or provide machine-readable media (diskette or magnetic tape).
