RMS duplicate key detected error? (DUP)

» close window

The Question is:

 
We are getting error:
 
 
RUN-S-PROC_ID, identification of created process is 000013C7
%RMS-F-DUP, duplicate key detected (DUP not set)
 
 
could you suggest some solution
 
thanks
 
 


The Answer is :

 
  With the DCL command:
 
    HELP/MESSAGE/FACILITY=RMS DUP
 
  HELP/MESSAGE is vailable on OpenVMS releases more recent than what you
  are running -- you would see the attached information.  This information
  is also available in the error messages and recovery documentation in
  the OpenVMS manual set.
 
  You will want to contact the vendor of the package, and you will likely
  be asked to provide details of the command(s) or operations involved, as
  well as the software package versions, etc.

 DUP,  duplicate key detected (DUP not set)
 
  Facility:     RMS, OpenVMS Record Management Services
 
  Explanation:  An RMS $PUT or $UPDATE operation specified a record that
                contains one or more key values that duplicate key values
                in other records stored in the file, and the key does not have
                the DUPLICATES ALLOWED attribute.
 
  User Action:  Either reorganize the file and specify that duplicate keys are
                allowed, or modify the source program to detect and respond to
                the condition.
