Cause: an informational message which appears during server startup, and notes the name of the administrative region for future diagnostic use by administrators. The message is part of normal server startup.

Cause: The server encountered an error while trying to get the configuration database's serial number. The error occurs almost always because time the server is unable to access the configuration database. If the error occurs during server startup, the server will shut down. If the error occurs during server operation (the server checks the serial number periodically to see if it should reload itself), then the server assumes a transient failure has occurred and repeats the operation a short while later. If the repetitions continue to fail for three days, the server will log another error and stop issuing the serial number load operation.

Cause: An error was encountered while trying to load the server's configuration from the configuration database. If more information is available, it will appear under this error. This error will cause the server to shut down.

Cause: The server received a corrupted request. The request is ignored.

Cause: the server's configuration contains a forwarder address whose length exceeds an internal limit.

Cause: the server detected an alias loop involving the specified name. An alias loop occurs when an alias "X" points to another alias "Y", which points back to "X" rather than to an address or other name server data. The loop can contain more hops but the basic idea remains the same. Loops occur when administrators mis-enter network data, particularly when an alias in one administrative region points to data in another administrative region.

Cause: An informational message written to the log file when the server disables request forwarding in response to a request from the Oracle Names control program.

Cause: An informational message written to the log file when the server enables request forwarding in response to a request from the Oracle Names control program.

Cause: The server's configuration contains a forwarder description with an invalid server name.

Cause: The server's configuration contains a forwarder description with a missing address.

Cause: the server detected a fatal delegation loop while forwarding a request. A loop occurs when the server's topology data indicates that it should forward a request to itself. The server immediately shuts down in response to this error.

Cause: a server "X" received authoritative data from another server "Y" when server "X" is also authoritative for the data. Such situations should never arise because if server "X" is authoritative for the requested data, it should never forward the request to another server.

Cause: The server's default forwarder list contains a duplicate server. The duplicate is ignored and the server continues running.

Cause: The server was unable to perform its normal periodic cache checkpointing, typically because the cache checkpoint file could not be written. The cache checkpoint file name appears as an informational message during server startup.

Cause: the server could not construct a system-dependent file name.

Cause: An informational message written to the log file when the server disables cache checkpointing in response to a request from the Oracle Names control program.

Cause: An informational message written to the log file when the server changes its cache checkpoint interval in response to a request from the Oracle Names control program.

Cause: the server was unable to open the named checkpoint file for writing. This problem is typically due to the file system's protection settings. The error is not fatal; it simply means the server will not checkpoint its cache.
