Preface

This guide describes error messages you may encounter when using the Sun Java^TM System Application Server 9.1 Enterprise Edition and Platform Edition software. The error messages described here can also be viewed with the Application Server Log Viewer.

Who Should Use This Book

The Sun Java System Application Server 9.1 Error Message Reference is intended for developers and administrators who use the Sun Java System Application Server to assemble and deploy distributed and Web-based applications.

This guide assumes you are familiar with the following topics:

Java APIs as defined in the Java Servlet, JavaServer Pages^TM (JSP^TM), Enterprise JavaBeans^TM (EJB^TM), and Java Database Connectivity (JDBC^TM) specifications
The SQL structured database query languages
Relational database concepts

How This Book Is Organized

This guide is a compilation of messages that you may encounter while running the Application Server. Each message begins with a message ID, which has a format like the following:

<Subsystem\><IntegerId\>:

The subsystem is identified by the initial characters in the message ID. For example, in JMS0001, the subsystem is JMS.

The error messages in this guide are divided into chapters based on the subsystem prefix:

The messages defined in this reference guide also include the following information:

Message — The brief text description accompanying the numeric message ID when viewed in the Application Server Log Viewer.
Cause — Meaning and likely cause of the message.
Solutions/Workarounds — Instructions on how to address the condition that caused the message to be generated.
