NMERR 200    MESSAGE      Unable to access !  subsystem message catalog !.
                          (NMERR 200)

             CAUSE        The first parameter is the subsystem name or
                          subsysid.  The second parameter is the message
                          catalog file name.  This is returned by a
                          datacomm subsystem message-generating routine.
                          The specified subsystem encountered an error
                          trying to access an error message in the
                          specified message catalog file.

             ACTION       Something is wrong with the specified message
                          catalog file.  Either it does not exist, or is
                          the wrong version, or is inaccessible due to
                          someone else either storing it or accessing it
                          exclusively, or some other I/O error has
                          occurred.  Correct the problem with the message
                          catalog and retry.

                          (NMERR 201)

             CAUSE        Returned by NMPRINTERRMSG and usually followed
                          by one or more of messages 202 through 205
                          below, which further clarifies the error.  NOTE:
                          This message is actually hard-coded in
                          NMPRINTERRMSG and is included here only for
                          documentation purposes.

             ACTION       Look for one or more of NMERR 202 through 205
                          following this message, and take the remedial
                          action suggested below.  Read the text and
                          comments for the original message specified in
                          the message, and take the suggested actions.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

NMERR 202    MESSAGE      FOPEN FSERR ! on NMCAT.PUB.SYS. (NMERR 202)

             CAUSE        Returned by NMPRINTERRMSG and usually followed
                          by the text of the FSError message.

             ACTION       Correct the FOPEN problem and retry.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

NMERR 203    MESSAGE      Encountered GENMESSAGE error !.  (NMERR 203)

             CAUSE        Returned by NMPRINTERRMSG. If error number is 1
                          or 2, NMERR 204 follows with a further
                          description.  Otherwise the error is described
                          in the MPE Intrinsics Manual under GENMESSAGE.

             ACTION       If the error number is 1 or 2, see the NMERR 204
                          message and comments.  If the error number is
                          not 1 or 2, look up the error number in the MPE
                          Intrinsics Manual under GENMESSAGE. It is likely
                          the problem is due to a bad software
                          installation.  If this is consistent with the
                          GENMESSAGE error, see "Getting Help" at the
                          beginning of this appendix.  Otherwise, correct
                          the problem causing the GENMESSAGE error and try
                          again.

                          !.  (NMERR 206)

             CAUSE        Returned by a subsystem message-generating
                          routine when it was unable to access the
                          specified message catalog.  The first parameter
                          is the Subsys (module) name.  The second
                          parameter is the Subsys message catalog name.
                          The third parameter is the message number.  The
                          fourth parameter is the set number.  Note that
                          this message is usually followed by one or more
                          of messages NMERR 207 through 210.

             ACTION       Check to see that the names entered actually
                          exist and are spelled correctly.  Read any other
                          error messages which are also displayed, and
                          take the action(s) recommended to correct the
                          problem(s) described by those messages.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

NMERR 207    MESSAGE      Encountered FOPEN FSERR ! on !.  (NMERR 207)

             CAUSE        Returned by a subsystem message-generating
                          routine when it was unable to FOPEN the
                          specified message catalog.  The first parameter
                          is the FSERR number.  The second parameter is
                          the message catalog name.  This message is
                          usually preceded by message NMERR 206.

             ACTION       Correct the FOPEN error and retry.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

NMERR 208    MESSAGE      Encountered GENMESSAGE error !.  (NMERR 208)

             CAUSE        Returned by a subsystem message-generating
                          routine, usually following NMERR 206.  The
                          parameter is the GENMESSAGE errnum.  If the
                          error number is 1 or 2, NMERR 209 follows with a
                          further description.  Otherwise, the error is
                          described in the MPE Intrinsics Manual under
                          GENMESSAGE.

             ACTION       If the error number is 1 or 2, see the NMERR
                          message # 209.  If the error number is not 1 or
                          2, look up the error number in the MPE
                          Intrinsics Manual under GENMESSAGE. It is likely
                          the problem is due to a bad software
                          installation.  If this is consistent with the
                          GENMESSAGE error, the configuration file may be
                          corrupted.  Run NMMGR and verify that the
                          configuration file is okay.  Otherwise, correct
                          the problem causing the GENMESSAGE error and try
                          again.

                          that there is another openlog outstanding for
                          the same subsystem id, so the configuration
                          information already in use will continue to be
                          used.  This result code is returned as a
                          negative number (-301) to indicate it is not an
                          error and that the openlog was in fact
                          successful.

             ACTION       None.
