ERRORS.DOC April 1993
The following error messages may appear when using ARJ. A brief
explanation of each message follows:
<filename> does not exist
The file <filename> could not be found on the disk. This error
may occur in a multiple volume extraction if ARJ is trying to
extract a split file. If this split file is not the beginning of
the file, ARJ will look for the beginning of the file on the disk.
If this file is missing, ARJ will report this error.
<filename> exists
The file <filename> already exists on the disk.
<filename> is not an ARJ archive
The file <filename> does not have a valid ARJ archive header in
the initial portion of the file. This file may not be an ARJ
archive or it may be damaged.
<filename> is not the same date/time
The file <filename> that is being appended to does not have the
correct file date-time stamp. This message occurs during multiple
volume extraction when the portion of the file on disk does not
match the portion in the archive. This can happen if a multiple
volume extraction was interrupted by a "quit" response.
<filename> is same or newer
The file <filename> has the same or newer file date-time stamp
than the matching file in the archive.
Archive name argument missing
The ARJ command is missing the name of the ARJ archive filename.
Arg table overflow
There are more than 64 arguments on the ARJ command line.
*** Valid ARJ-SECURITY envelope signature:
This message is displayed when ARJ has verified that the archive
has a valid ARJ-SECURITY envelope. This indicates that the archive
contents are intact and unmodified as originally distributed by the
individual identified in the text that follows this message.
Bad command syntax
The ARJ command line is not correct syntactically.
Bad file data
The file in the ARJ archive is damaged and has invalid data in it.
It is not possible to recover this file in an undamaged format.
Bad file data or bad password
The file in the ARJ archive is damaged or you may have supplied
the wrong password to the "-g" option. Check the password that
you specified.
Bad header
The ARJ archive file description information record is damaged.
Bad or missing SECURITY key
An invalid or missing security key was provided to ARJ. Check
to see if the security key is correct.
Break signaled
The user pressed Control C or Control BREAK.
Can't copy temp <filename> to archive <filename>
This error usually means that there is not enough disk space to
copy the intermediate archive file to its destination drive. ARJ
does not purge the intermediate archive file in this situation so
that the file can be copied manually to a drive with enough disk
space.
Can't delete <filename>
ARJ cannot delete the file <filename>. Most likely, the file is
in use or is set as readonly.
Can't find <filename>
The file <filename> does not exist.
Can't find restart file: <filename>
The file <filename> does not exist.
Can't find restart information
During the scan of the specified index file, ARJ could not find
a line of text similar to the following:
Next volume - 001 1 19931 C:\ARC\VGA640.DRV
This can happened if the index file is damaged or was created by
a version of ARJ prior to 2.39.
Can't get volume label
ARJ could not read the volume label of the drive specified.
Can't handle ARJ-SECURITY version <number>
This version of ARJ encountered an ARJ-SECURITY envelope version
of which it does not know how to verify the integrity.
Can't make directory <directoryname>
ARJ could not create the directory <directoryname>. The name
<directoryname> may already exist.
Can't open <filename>
ARJ cannot open the file <filename>. The file may be set to
readonly or it may already be in use.
Can't order a multiple volume archive
Re-ordering a multiple volume archive is NOT allowed.
Can't read file or unexpected end of file
This error message usually occurs if the end of the file has been
reached when ARJ is expecting more data.
Can't rename <filename> to <filename>
ARJ could not rename <filename>. The target filename may already
exist.
Can't reset <filename>
ARJ could not reset the archive bit attribute of <filename>.
Can't seek to position <number> in file
ARJ could not seek to the position in the file. This file may not
be as large as the position specified.
Can't update an ARJ-SECURED archive!
Modification of an ARJ-SECURED archive is NOT allowed.
Can't use -jt1 or -jt2 with -e or -e1
ARJ always uses the filename stored in the archive to access the
file during the compare operation. The -e and -e1 options strip
significant information from the filename.
Can't use -v with self-extraction
The ARJ self-extraction modules do not support multiple volume
archives.
Can't write file. Disk full?
Self-explanatory.
CRC error
The file in the ARJ archive is damaged and has invalid data in it.
It is not possible to recover this file in an undamaged format.
If this error is encountered when ARJ initially starts up, this
indicates that the ARJ runfile is probably damaged.
Critical device error
A DOS critical error has occurred. ARJ has trapped this error
condition and returned a error.
*** Damaged ARJ-SECURED archive!
This ARJ archive has been damaged or corrupted. The contents of
the archive are not in the same condition as when it was created.
Delete argument missing
The ARJ delete command requires that a filename or wildspec be
specified on the command line. It does not assume "*.*".
*** Detected an OBSOLETE ARJ-SECURITY envelope. NOT verified!
ARJ has detected a version 1 ARJ-SECURITY envelope. ARJ has not
verified the validity of the ARJ-SECURITY envelope because of
the obsolescence of version 1 envelopes.
Exceeded maximum path size of <number> at <filename>
The maximum pathname length is limited in size to <number>
characters.
Exceeded name limit of <number> at <filename>
The number of filenames encountered by ARJ has exceeded the
documented limited of <number> filenames.
File is password encrypted
ARJ is skipping the current file because it is password encrypted
(garbled) and no password has been specified on the command line
with the "-g" option.
Found <number> error(s)
ARJ has encountered <number> of non-fatal errors.
Garbled files are not allowed for SFXJR
The small self-extractor module does not support the extraction of
garbled files.
Header CRC error
The file description header record in the archive is damaged.
This cannot be fixed. The use of the "-jr" option will allow the
recovery of files after the damaged section.
Invalid command: <command>
The specified <command> is not a valid ARJ command.
Invalid comment header
This error should never happen.
Invalid date string: <date>
The date <date> contains an invalid date. It should be specified
in YYMMDDHHMMSS format where YY represents the two digit year, MM
represents the month, DD represents the day, HH represents the
hour, MM represents the minutes, and SS represents the seconds.
Invalid multiple volume file sequence
ARJ has detected a sequence error in a series of multiple volume
archives. This error should never occur.
Invalid parameter string: <parameter>
The parameter string <parameter> is not correct syntactically.
Invalid switch: <option>
The switch option <option> is not a valid option.
Invalid use of self-extraction switch
The -je or -je1 switch was used with a non-modification command.
Invalid volume size
The specified volume size was too small. Only 360, 720, 1200, and
1440 are acceptable abbreviations.
Missing filename argument for <command>
A filename must be specified for <command>.
Multiple volume updates are NOT supported
The modification of ARJ multiple volume archives is not supported
or recommended. You can use the "-vu" option to override this
prohibition. Do so at your own risk.
Must specify only non-wildnames for order command
The ARJ order command does not accept wildcards.
NOT found
This message is displayed when the filename in the archive is not
found on disk.
NOT matched
This message is displayed when the contents of the filename in the
archive does not match the contents of the same filename on disk.
No available memory to store <filename>
ARJ has run out of memory and cannot store the name <filename>.
Specifying fewer filenames or using a listfile are two ways to
work around the lack of memory.
Nothing to do
This message is displayed if you try to restart a multiple volume
archival process that did not abort but actually completed.
No strings were entered
At least one search string must be specified for the ARJ "w"
command.
Not a valid method for SFX
The ARJ self-extraction modules do not support extraction of files
compressed with the "-m4" option.
Not enough disk space for extraction. Overflow by over <number> bytes.
Self-explanatory.
Not enough disk space
Self-explanatory.
Not enough free disk space
Self-explanatory.
Order command file count mismatch
This error should not happen. Please report this problem.
Out of memory
There is not enough memory for ARJ to complete its operation.
Out of near memory
There is not enough small model memory for ARJ to complete its
operation. It can occur if there is a large amount of environment
space allocated to environment variables. The use of "COMMAND /C
/E:200 ARJ <command> ... " can work around this problem.
Password option missing
The "-g" option requires the specification of a password.
Passwords did not match
The two passwords entered did not match exactly.
Read/Write error <message> on drive <letter>
Set label error
ARJ could not set the volume label to the volume label stored in
the archive. This can happen if the volume label in the archive
is not a standard DOS volume label.
Signal failed
This error should not happen. Please report this problem.
Skipping a possible ARJ-SECURED archive
This message is displayed when the option (-he1) has been specified
and ARJ has just accessed an ARJ archive that has an ARJ-SECURITY
envelope on it. This does NOT indicate the validity or integrity
of the ARJ-SECURITY envelope.
Text mode (-t1) files are not allowed for SFXJR
The ARJ small self-extraction module (-je1) does not support
extraction of files compressed in text mode (-t1).
The ARJ-SECURITY envelope on this archive has been violated
This ARJ archive has been damaged or corrupted. The contents of
the archive are not in the same condition as when it was created.
This archive HAS a valid ARJ-SECURITY envelope
This ARJ archive has been ARJ-SECURED and most probably is in the
same condition as when it was created.
Unknown file type: <number>
ARJ has encountered an unknown file type in the archive.
You may need a newer version of ARJ to process this archive.
Unknown method: <number>
ARJ has encountered an unknown compression method in the archive.
You may need a newer version of ARJ to process this archive.
Unknown version: <number>
ARJ has encountered an unknown extraction version in the archive.
You may need a newer version of ARJ to process this archive.
*** Verifying ARJ SECURITY envelope ...
ARJ is testing the integrity of the ARJ-SECURITY envelope on the
archive. If the envelope has been corrupted or damaged, ARJ will
display a message to that effect.
Volume labels are not allowed for SFX
The ARJ self-extraction modules do not support the extraction of
volume labels.
Warning! Only <number> bytes of free disk space. Continue?
Self-explanatory.
