Re: Where can I find error code meanings in AppleFileService logs?



I'm beginning to see that. I have a user (AFP network home) who gets frequent beachballs of death. I was hoping to find a clue about the cause in the AppleFileServiceAccess.log, but while I'm seeing -5006 errors, there's now way to know why. It's difficult to know which app is doing the file operations, but they seem to be Apple Mail and the .Mac syncing stuff. He's the only one using .Mac syncing, so I was going to blame that.

There are logs in /Library/Logs/AppleFileService, and I'm primarily concerned with entries in /L/Logs/AppleFileService/ AppleFileServiceAccess.log. Here's an example entry:

IP 000.000.000.000 - - [04/Jan/2006:10:23:21 -0500] "OpenFork 23326.emlx" -5006 0 0

(I changed the IP address to 000.000.000.000 in this email). The numeric codes at the end of the entry seem to mean something, especially the -5006. I was hoping to find out what they mean.

Genreally it's not the meaning of a specific Mac error code that is of primary concern, but that you're getting one at all and what it is you're doing that causes it that is of the greater importance. The codes are designed for use by the programmer, not the user.


As for -5006 means "afpDenyConflict (-5006): Specified open/deny modes conflict with current open modes" which as you see (and I suggested) isn't going to help you very much at all.

You can find the codes in the MacErrors header file.
