perror(1)

NAME

       perror - explain error codes

SYNOPSIS

       perror [options] errorcode ...

DESCRIPTION

       For most system errors, MySQL displays, in addition to an
       internal text message, the system error code in one of the
       following styles:

       message ... (errno: #)
       message ... (Errcode: #)

       You can find out what the error code means by examining
       the documentation for your system or by using the perror
       utility.

       perror prints a description for a system error code or for
       a storage engine (table handler) error code.

       Invoke perror like this:

       shell> perror [options] errorcode ...

       Example:

       shell> perror 13 64
       Error code  13:  Permission denied
       Error code  64:  Machine is not on the network

       To obtain the error message for a MySQL Cluster error
       code, invoke perror with the --ndb option:

       shell> perror --ndb errorcode

       Note that the meaning of system error messages may be
       dependent on your operating system. A given error code may
       mean different things on different operating systems.

       perror supports the following options:

       o  --help, --info, -I, -?

          Display a help message and exit.

       o  --ndb

          Print the error message for a MySQL Cluster error code.

       o  --silent, -s

          Silent mode. Print only the error message.

       o  --verbose, -v

          Verbose mode. Print error code and message. This is the
          default behavior.

       o  --version, -V

          Display version information and exit.
