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
Note that 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.
