Compiler Error Messages

Call the Travelport Help Desk immediately.

The script name is incorrect.  Check for too many characters or invalid characters (no special characters allowed except the underscore), and check the format.  The size of the filename is limited to eight characters and must have a file extension of .ASL or .ASC.

The system cannot locate the script.  The script does not exist or the script name is incorrect.  Check for too many or invalid characters (no special characters allowed except the underscore) and check the format. 

This error occurs when the security restrictions are not met.

The system cannot find the Dialog file, or it cannot open the Dialog file.  Re-transfer the dialog box to the script.  If the error appears again, rebuild the dialog box.

Call the Travelport Help Desk.  Report the problem xxx.

The closing double quote (") is missing at the end of the text.

The maximum size of a number is two billion.  The number used has exceeded this maximum.

The date or airdate format is incorrect.  Acceptable date formats are 'MM/DD/YY' (e.g., 01/28/93), or 'DDMMM' (e.g., 15JUN).  Also, check the VARIABLES section of the script.  Date and Airdate fields should show either '00/00/00', '00XXX', or the literal as shown above.  If there are spaces instead of the appropriate characters, return to the dialog box field and remove them with the <Delete> key.  Save the dialog box, re-transfer, then recompile.

Constants, variables, and commands are all considered tokens.  The Compiler is not able to recognize one of the components of the command.  This error displays when previous error messages have not been corrected.

Check the format of the command (spelling, usage, comas, parens, etc.).

Check for a missing special character.  The following is a list of special characters:

Two or more variables with the same name exist in the VARIABLES section of the script

The use of this variable requires a number type.

The use of this variable requires a boolean type, which is a value that may have only one of two conditions (e.g., True/False).

The use of this variable requires an airdate or date type.

This expression requires the variables to be the same type.

The result of the expression is not compatible with the variable receiving the assignment.

The result of this expression must evaluate to True or False.

The expression contains an invalid variable type.

A variable that has been used cannot be found in the VARIABLES section of the script.  If it is declared, be certain the spelling of the variable matches.

The use of this variable requires a text type.

Two or more paragraph names are the same.  Use different paragraph names.

Two or more subroutine names are the same.  Use different subroutine names.

The variables in the dialog box do not match the variables passed from the script in the DIALOG command.  This error is caused when there has been a change in the dialog box and the transfer to the script has not been repeated.

The variables in the dialog box do not match the variables passed from the script in the DIALOG command.  This error is caused when there has been a change in the dialog box and the transfer to the script has not been repeated.

Caused when there has been a change in the dialog box and the transfer has not been repeated, or when the variable has been declared as a different type.

The variables in the expression must both be airdate/date or both be numbers.`

Change the type of variable or literal.

The variable in the expression must be airdate, date, or text type.

Change the type of variable or literal.

The system cannot find the paragraph name used in the GOTO statement.  Check the existence of and/or the spelling of the paragraph name.

Insert colon in correct location.

This error occurs when security restrictions are not met or when disk space is not available.

The script is too complex or uses too many variables.  The recommended maximum number of variables is 64.

The CASE statement contains a duplicate literal in the list of choices.

Each CASE must have a corresponding ENDCASE that marks the logical end of the CASE structure.

Each IF must have a corresponding ENDIF that marks the logical end of the IF structure.

Each WHILE must have a corresponding ENDWHILE that marks the logical end of the WHILE looping structure.

Each FOR must have a corresponding ENDFOR to mark the logical end of the FOR looping structure.

Each REPEAT must have a corresponding UNTIL that marks the logical end of the REPEAT looping structure.

Remove the embedded command from the SEND statement and recompile.

Change the parameter of the INSERT command to a numeric literal.

Use a variable type that supports multiply and divide.

Internal variables are not allowed in the dialog box.

The counter variable in the FOR statement must be an airdate/date or a number.

Check the spelling of the script name and the use of special characters other than the underscore.

The format of the command must contain either all zeros (i.e., "0000"), or all zeros with one decimal (i.e., "00.0" or ".00").  However, the number format may not contain a trailing decimal (i.e., "000.")  or more than one decimal (i.e., "00.00.").

The compiler is looking for an ENDS.  Unexpected EOF encountered.  Check the syntax of statements.

Cannot display all the errors.  One or more previous errors will cause this error.  Fix the previous errors first and recompile.  This error displays after 20 errors have occurred.

An error occurred when trying to read the compiled script file.  Retrieve the dialog box and:

1. Save again and recompile.
2. If that doesn't work, build a new dialog box, save, and compile.
3. If the problem still exists, call the Travelport Support Center.
