VTS/IS Error Messages

The HTML server embedded within VTS/IS can generate error messages under certain conditions. All error messages are generated using the standard HTML error reporting method, giving an error number and explanatory text.

Note: The explanatory text messages are defined in Setup.ini, and so may be customized if required. Information on customization of the text messages can be found in "VTS Programmer's Guide: Customization of HTML Error Responses".

An example of an error response is shown below:

The table shown below identifies the possible error codes and messages that VIC users may encounter.
