This topic describes the error messages for MySQL tenants in OceanBase Database.

Format of error messages

OceanBase Database is highly compatible with MySQL. Specifically, OceanBase Database is compatible with general MySQL features, foreground and background MySQL protocols, as well as some native error codes of MySQL. Therefore, the error message format for MySQL tenants in OceanBase Database is the same as that in MySQL databases.

Format of error messages:

ERROR <err_num> (<sql_stat>) : err_msg

Parameters

  • err_num: the error code.

  • sql_stat: the SQL state.

  • err_msg: the error message.

Variables in error messages

In OceanBase Database, variables are embedded in error messages to help you troubleshoot issues. In this topic, these variables are represented by percent signs (%).

Examples:

ERROR 4626 (HY000) : resource pool '%s' has already been granted to a tenant

The preceding error message may appear as the following message:

ERROR 4626 (HY000) : resource pool 'pool1' has already been granted to a tenant

Error code description

The following table describes the system error codes by range.

Error code range Description
0001 ~ 3999 Error codes compatible with MySQL.
  • For more information about the error codes on MySQL servers, see https://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-errors/8.0/en/server-error-reference.html.
  • For more information about the error codes on MySQL clients, see https://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-errors/8.0/en/client-error-reference.html.
4000 ~ 4499 Common error codes.
4500 ~ 4999 RootService error codes.
5000 ~ 5999 SQL, WITH clause, and Factoring error codes.
6000 ~ 6999 Transaction, multi-version concurrency control (MVCC), and clog error codes.
7000 ~ 7999 Election module error codes.
8000 ~ 8999 Fatal error codes. If a client receives an error message with an error code within this range, the client must close the SQL connection.
9000 ~ 9499 Backup, recovery, and STORAGE 3.0 error codes.
9500 ~ 9999 Procedural language (PL) error codes.
22998, 30926, 38104, and 38105 BLOB and CLOB error codes.
