ESF Manager Messages and Logging

ESF Manager generates various log messages regarding errors, warnings, and successful completion of infrequent activities (such as loading and initializing an ESM Module). These messages are sent to an enviroment-specific logging facility, such as the CAS Console Log and the MFDS Journal. (See saf-env.c for more information on ESF Manager environments.)

Each ESF log message has:

ESF API Processing Messages

103W Admin "type" request failed: "value"
An ESF Admin request of the given type failed, returning error code value.
104W Update ("type") request failed: "value"
An ESF Update request of the given type failed, returning error code value.
105W ESM Module number ("name") returned error code value ("description") from Update (type)
The ESM Module name (at position number in the stack, if multiple modules are configured) returned error code value from an Update operation for a cached update. The type is either "single update" or "refresh all", indicating whether the ESM Module was asked to refresh its private data associated with one update, or clear all of its privately cached security information. See External Administrative Update Notification for more information.
110E ESM Module number ("name") returned error code value ("description") from Verify
The ESM Module name (at position number in the stack, if multiple modules are configured) returned error code value from a Verify (authenticate user) operation. This constitutes a Fail result for the Verify request.
111E ESM Module number ("name") returned error code value ("description") from Auth
The ESM Module name (at position number in the stack, if multiple modules are configured) returned error code value from an Auth (authorize resource access) operation.
112E ESM Module number ("name") returned error code value ("description") from XAuth
The ESM Module name (at position number in the stack, if multiple modules are configured) returned error code value from an Xauth (authorize resource access) operation.
113E ESM Module number ("name") returned error code value ("description") from Admin
The ESM Module name (at position number in the stack, if multiple modules are configured) returned error code value from an Admin (administrative action) operation.
114E ESM Module number ("name") returned error code value ("description") from Update
The ESM Module name (at position number in the stack, if multiple modules are configured) returned error code value from an Update (update notification) operation.

ESM Module Interface Messages

200I Loaded ESM Module "name"
The binary file name has been loaded as an ESM Module and initialized.
201C Unable to load ESM Module "name": reason
The ESM Module in the binary file name could not be loaded; reason is a numeric reason code.
202C ESM Module "name" returned invalid procedure table
The ESM module name returned an invalid result when its initial entry point was called.
203C ESM Module "name" initialization failed
The ESM Module name returned an error from its initialization procedure.
204W ESM Module index returned error code value from Exit
The ESM Module (indicated by its position in the ESM Module list, index) returned a non-zero value from its Exit procedure.

Processing Environment Messages

301W Unable to open log file "name": ("value") description
ESF was unable to open the log file "name". The value is the error code and description is a short description. (The file is specified by the MF_SAFLOG environment variable. This function only applies to standalone utilities that use ESF, and not to main ES components.)
320C CAS support function "name" is not available
The required CAS support function name is not available to ESF Manager, possibly due to a version mismatch between modules or a resource constraint. This is a fatal error.
321E Unable to allocate ACEE (error code)
ESF Manager was unable to allocate an ACEE structure, which is required for user verification. code is the error returned by the environment's ACEE allocation function.
322E Unable to allocate named shared memory (error code)
ESF Manager was unable to allocate a named shared memory area, either for its own use or to satisfy a request from an ESM Module. code is the error returned by the environment's shared-memory allocation function.

Auditing Messages

601C Auditing subsystem startup failed: ("value") description
ESF was unable to connect to the auditing subsystem. This is a critical failure (if auditing is enabled). value is the return code from auditing startup and description is a short description of the problem.
602C Auditing: cobaudit_event failed: ("value") description
The auditing subsystem failed to audit a security event. This is a critical failure (if auditing is enabled). value is the return code from auditing startup and description is a short description of the problem.

ESM Module Messages

See the documentation for your ESM Module for information on its log messages. (Documentation for the MLDAP ESM Module can be found here.)

Temporary Messages

These messages will not normally be logged by released products. They may appear in Early-Adopter releases. If you receive a message in this range, contact Micro Focus Technical Support for more information.
