KB#00280-Possible causes for a BBx error 16

Title:

Possible causes for a BBx error 16

Description:

Error 16 can be caused by config.bbx configuration problems or by operating system configuration problems. Print the TCB(10) value immediately after you receive the ERROR=16 to determine the reason: 

        >PRINT TCB(10) 

 

Resolution:

A TCB(10) of a positive 17 indicates a config.bbx problem--usually FBCS=, CIBS= or STBLEN=. Increase these parameters. 

A TCB(10) of a negative number needs a bit more info: 

Under a Unix operating system, simply look up the absolute value of the TCB(10) result in the file /usr/include/sys/errno.h. 

Under DOS/Windows evironments the values can be found on the Microsoft Development Center found here.
