GlassFish Wiki : ErrorMessageReference

Application Server 9.1 Error Message Reference

This Wiki is intended to be an interactive, editable version of the Error Message Reference that is also available in HTML and PDF formats.

Note

*Sun Java Application Server 9.1*, bundled with the Java EE 5 SDK, is the commercial version of GlassFish v2. The code bases are the same, only the support options differ. For the purposes of this Wiki, all references to "Application Server" refer equally to "GlassFish"; the names are interchangeable. For information about Application Server 9.1 and the Java EE 5 SDK, please go to the Java EE Downloads page.

The most significant shortcoming of the current Error Message Reference is that it does not contain enough information – it pretty much contains just the error message IDs and message strings, with little or no explanatory text. The challenge is that it takes a lot of time to develop meaningful descriptions and solutions/workarounds for the problems indicated by the error messages, more time than either the developers or doc writers can currently afford. Moreover, meaningful solutions are really only available after the product has been "in the wild" for some time.

Finally, there are a lot of error messages here, but some are more significant and/or encountered more often than others. Through the process of natural community selection, those errors that are most important will hopefully rise to the top of the stack. Please get involved!

What follows here is the complete SEVERE error message catalog for Application Server 9.1. Please add your comments, descriptions, solutions and/or workarounds directly to this Error Message wiki. See How do I edit a wiki page? for more information about editing these pages.

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 error messages in this Wiki are categorized according to their message ID prefix. For example, messages with a DPL prefix are in the section titled "DPL Error Messages." In addition, there is a general section at the beginning for "Unexpected Errors."
