1.6.2 i/o Errors
These error messages are prefaced with the name of the
application. A further explanation as to the
reason, obtained from the standard strerror() utility, is
appended to the messages below if possible.
- application-name
: can't read filename - A file was not able to be opened for reading, typically because it was
not found or because the user does not have permission. The file name is
displayed with special characters expanded but without any default
extensions or search paths that may have been tried. If you think a file
exists and should have been found, there may be a problem with your
AVMINPUTS environment variable (Environment).
- application-name
: can't write filename - A file was not able to be opened for writing.
- application-name
: can't write to filename - A file was successfully opened for writing but became impossible to
write thereafter.
- application-name
: can't spawn command - An attempt to execute a shell command on behalf of an interactive
application failed during the
exp_popen() call to the
libexpect library.
- application-name
: can't close filename - A call to the standard C procedure
fclose() failed due to
unforeseen circumstances. The error is non-fatal but the file should be
checked for missing data.
