HPFOPEN

A pathname component is not a directory.

The pathname could not be traversed because at least one of its name components does not refer to a directory.

Inspect the pathname for name components which are not directories. Correct the pathname and retry the operation.

User lacks traverse directory entry (TD) access for a directory.

A directory ACD or an alternate directory access control mechanism has not granted the user TD access to a directory.

Determine why the user has not been granted TD access. Grant TD access if granting TD access is appropriate.

User lacks create directory entry (CD) access for a directory.

A directory ACD or an alternate directory access control mechanism has not granted the user CD access to a directory.

Determine why the user has not been granted CD access. Grant CD access if granting CD access is appropriate.

User lacks delete directory (DD) access for a directory.

A directory ACD or an alternate directory access control mechanism has not granted the user DD access to a directory.

Determine why the user has not been granted DD access. Grant DD access if granting DD access is appropriate.

Name exceeds the parent directory's maximum name length.

The name is too long. The maximum name length for the root directory, MPE groups, and accounts is 16 characters. The maximum name length for hierarchical directories is 255.

Use a name which is short enough to fit in a directory entry in the parent directory.

Invalid name semantics value.

A value other than 0, 1, or 2 was specified for HPFOPEN's name semantics parameter.

Specify a valid value.

Invalid UFID value.

The UFID passed to HPFOPEN references an object whose name is outside the MPE name space or it doesn't reference a valid label table entry.

Use HPFDUPLICATE to reopen an opened object. Open the object by name if it is not already open. Use a name in the MPE name space if opening by UFID is necessary.

Invalid record format value.

The record format value specifies a record format not implemented for the selected file type.

Specify a different record format or file type.

Invalid file type.

KSAM/3000, RIO, CIR, and MSG file types must have names belonging to the MPE name space.

Use names belonging to the MPE name space.

Invalid file code.

Negative file codes may be used only for files in MPE groups.

Either modify the filecode or create the file in an MPE group.

Object cannot be created in the new file domain.

Files with names outside the MPE name space and hierarchical directories must be created in the the permanent file domain.

Create the object using HPFOPEN and specify the permanent file domain (itemnum 3 equal to 4).

File privilege cannot be used outside MPE groups.

A file privilege level other than level three was specified when creating a file with a name outside the MPE name space.

Use a name from the MPE name space if a file privilege level other than level three is needed. If a level three file privilege level can be used, retain the name and permit the file privilege level to default to level three.
