Appendix B. FileMaker Error Codes

The following table lists the error codes that may pop up when FileMaker detects something out of whack in your database, especially when you’re writing or running a script. Like any things written by and for computer programmers, these official descriptions may not make much sense in English, but they may provide a little more guidance than the error number alone.

Error codes marked with an asterisk (*) pertain only to web-published databases.
