Description of Common Windows Error Codes
Occurs when a basic operation under Windows fails, e.g. file access. Can also occur as a cause of a database error. Often they appear as the last digit of a longer error code, e.g. c000005 corresponds to Error 5. Below is a selection of Win32 errors.
| Error No. | description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Invalid function. Occurs infrequently. |
| 2 | File not found. File does not exist. |
| 3 | Path not found. Path (directory) does not exist. |
| 4 | Too many open files. Too many files are open at the same time. |
| 5 | Access denied. Access to file is denied (permission issue). |
| 8 | Not enough memory. Not enough disk space. |
| 14 | Out of memory. Not enough disk space |
These error codes occur in connection with TCP/IP network connections. Specifically, they usually appear in connection with Firebird because the connection to the database server is via TCP/IP by default.
