Overview of Error Messages
MSC Nastran is improving its messages, and for these improved messages, XMSG will have no effect. For example:
User messages typically indicate problems with the input file. Corrective action is often indicated in the message text.
Refer to the MSC Nastran Quick Reference Guide for proper input file formats.
Warning and information messages appear at various places in the output.
Fatal messages will cause the program to terminate. These messages will appear at the end of the output and will often give
corrective action.
Operating system specific messages can appear in the MSC Nastran output. The format of these messages will vary with
the operating system. You should refer to your operating system manuals for interpretation of these messages.

1.0 *** USER FATAL MESSAGE %1 (%2)
User information: In DMAP, the "N" in V,N %1 or in TYPE PARM,A,B,N means user cannot set the
value of the parameter with name %1 on a PARAM entry. In DMAP, when defining a parameter, the "N"
in V,N %1 means user cannot set the value of the parameter with name %1 on a PARAM entry in Bulk
Data.

User information: The constant needs value in a DMAP instruction or on a PARAM entry. Here is a
parameter in the referenced DMAP instruction which must have a value assigned before the execution of
the module.
User information: Too many or too few inputs are specified in the input for the referenced module.
User information: The name of a module must be alpha-numeric characters, the first character being
alphabetic. Special characters are not allowed.
For example DMAP names like "8MOD" or "SETI=2" are not allowed.

User action:
Check the following items:
1. Check the spelling of the module's name.
2. If the module's name is valid and a DMAP alter is present then ensure that an ENDALTER (or the
CEND) statement appears immediately after the final DMAP statement of the DMAP alter.
System information: See XGPI module description in MFD section of MSC NASTRAN Programmer's
Manual. The usual cause is insufficient open core. In other cases, it may be necessary to divide the DMAP
sequence into subDMAPs.
User action: Remove unnecessary datablocks/views from SUBDMAP or restructure into multiple
SUBDMAPS.

User information: This parameter was used in a previous DMAP instruction which gave it a different type.
See the MSC NASTRAN DMAP Programmers Guide.
User information: Usually caused by early termination such as a LABEL statement without a NAME.
User information: Usually caused by early termination such as a LABEL statement without a NAME.

User information: LABEL named appears in more than one place in DMAP program.
User action: CHECK FOR CORRECT SPELLING, OR MISSING TYPE STATEMENT, AND
RERUN.
User information: A common mistake is to forget that DMAP statements DMIIN and DTIIN are required
to read DMI and DTI matrices, respectively. Note that RF24D41 requires a DTIIN command.

System information: The MED Table must have the same number of entries as there are DMAP
instructions in DMAP sequence. Can be caused by having more than one END DMAP statement.
User information: The user should check the ALTER part of the Executive Control Section.
System information: File Name Table and MED Table used by routine XFLDEF are wrong. The user can
compensate by altering OUT and IN module(s) which regenerate the data block.
User information: A DMAP instruction is attempting to assign a default value to a parameter that appears
in a previous instruction which assigned it a value.

User action: CHECK FOR MISSING QUOTES, SLASHES, EXTRA OR MISSING BLANK
FIELDS,ETC.
User information: If the value of a parameter is allowed to change in the called subDMAP, then it must be
specified as S,XXXXX, where XXXXX is the parameter name. If it is specified as S,N,XXXXX, then error
code 2 will occur pointing to a parameter named N. If a parameter field is left blank on a CALL subDMAP
statement, then error code 2 will be improperly issued pointing to the last parameter in the command pre-
ceding the blank field. The correction for this is to place either a parameter name or value in the blank field.
User information: THIS LIMIT DEPENDS ON THE TOTAL NUMBER OF ARGUMENTS SPECI-
FIED ON ALL THE CALL STATEMENTS BEEN COMPILED IN THIS RUN.
User action: REDUCE THE NUMBER OF CALL STATEMENTS OR THE NUMBER OF ARGU-
MENTS ON THE CALL STATEMENTS.
Programmer action: INCREASE THE SIZE OF VARIABLE MAXCAL AND ARRAY CALLS OF
COMMON BLOCK CCALL1.

THIS ERROR MAY BE ISSUED IN THE FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCES:
1. THE TYPE STATEMENT REFERENCES AN ITEM WHICH HAS NOT BEEN DEFINED IN
THE NDDL.
2. THE NDDL STORED IN THE USER'S MASTER DBSET IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE
NDDL AND DMAP STORED IN THE DELIVERY DATABASE; FOR EXAMPLE, A
DATABASE CREATED IN VERSION 66 OR 66A IS BEING USED IN A VERSION 67 RUN.
ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF WHEN THIS ERROR WILL OCCUR IS WHEN A USER IS
ACCIDENTALLY ATTACHING TO AN OLD DATABASE, BECAUSE HE HAS RUN
MULTIPLE JOBS WITH THE SAME INPUT FILENAME, AND HE HAS ALSO CHANGED
FROM A USS TO SSS SOLUTION SEQUENCE OR VICE-VERSA. (E.G., SOL 24 TO SOL
101).

THIS ERROR MAY BE ISSUED IN THE FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCES:
1. The TYPE statement references an item which has not been defined in the NDDL.
2. The NDDL stored in the user's MASTER dbset is inconsistent with the NDDL and DMAP stored
in the delivery database; for example, a database created in Version 66 or 66A is being used in a
Version 67 run. Another example of when this error will occur is when a user is accidentally attaching
to an old database, because he has run multiple jobs with the same input filename, and he has also
changed from a USS to SSS solution sequence or vice-versa. (e.g., SOL 24 to SOL 101).

User Action: REMOVE THE REFERENCE FROM THE SUBDMAP STATEMENT OR THE TYPE

User Information: If a datablock is on the SUBDMAP statement, the calling subDMAP will define
whether it is a TYPE DB or not. Therefore, having a "TYPE DB" statement in the called subDMAP is a
conflict.

User action: CHECK THE AVAILABLE/ALLOCATED SPACE AND THE PRIVILEGES GRANTED

User information: This may occur if BUFFSIZE is too large. See the MSC NASTRAN Installation and
Operations Instructions for maximum allowable value. This error may occur if the corresponding ASSIGN
statement references an incorrect physical file specification. Another possible cause is two restart jobs trying
to access (read/write) the same database simultaneously. DBLOCATing (read only) the same database by
two jobs is acceptable. Another cause is if a restart is attempted from a database in which the MASTER is
split into multiple physical files. An avoidance is to explicitly point to the physical name associated with the
MASTER DBsets on ASSIGN statements. See Error Report 2953 in section 17.4 of MSC NASTRAN

User information: This message appears when the SDR3 module encounters trouble. he exact nature of the
problem can be detected from the "code" number. The file type causing the problem can be determined
from its name (for example, OESi is the stress output file, and OUGVi the displacement, velocity, and
acceleration output file). The function of this module is to convert SORT1 output tables to SORT2 tables.
It operates on one output type per pass (for example, displacements, then velocities, then stresses in BAR
elements, then ROD elements, etc.). Since the user controls the content and size of the output tables with
case control and plot requests, it is often possible to avoid these errors, as described below.
User information: Probably DMAP calling sequence error. Needed output is purged.

User information: The above grid point and component are defined in each of the above dependent sub-

as belonging to two mutually exclusive sets. A common example of this occurs when a DOF is defined as
dependent an MPC (M-set) as well as being constrained (s-set) on an SPC entry. The message for this states
that the component is illegally defined in the um (user-defined m-set) and us (user-defined s-set) sets. These
two sets are mutually exclusive because all MPC equations are processed before the SPCs are applied
(exception is SOL 24) and the m-set DOFs are removed from the matrix. When the program attempts pply
the SPC, the DOF is no longer available, and the FATAL message is issued. The normal correction for this
is to modify the MPC so that the DOF in question is independent (N-set). Then there is no conflict.

User information: The matrix to be solved has a matrix trailer that indicates that it is symmetric
("FORM=6"). The DMAP call requests that the unsymmetric decomposition algorithm be used. The
symmetric algorithm is more economical that the unsymmetric algorithm, and unconditionally stable for
positive-definite matrices.
Change the DMAP call to request symmetric decomposition, unless it is known that the unsymmetric
algorithm is required.
User information: The module has been instructed to perform the symmetric decomposition algorithm in
the DMAP call, but the trailer of the input matrix indicates that it is not of Form 6. If the matrix should be
symmetric, a MODTRL module call can be scheduled before the module to convert the matrix trailer to
Form 6. If this message is encountered in a solution sequence,it is a signal that a solution is being requested
for a system (unsymmetric matrices) for which it was not designed. Wrong answers may result if the
solution is forced through with the MODTRL technique.
Programmer information: The trailer of the matrix indicates that it is not Form=6 and the READ module
is not intended to process unsymmetric matrices.
Programmer action: If the matrix is intended to be symmetric, then the MODTRL module may be used to
convert the matrix trailer to Form 6 but wrong answers may result. Alternatively, the CEAD module may
be used for perform an eigenvalue analysis with unsymmetric matrices.

System information:
Subroutine %1 has encountered data which it cannot process. This error should not be caused by user
input data, except as described in the next paragraphs. A system or programming error is indicated. Go
directly to the subroutine listing or description to determine the exact cause of the problems.
This message occurs in superelement or module analysis when restarting improperly. The illegal input
message is usually caused by a purged input file.
One example is if the subroutine is CALCV. A common cause of this error is when attempting to perform
a PARTN (or MERGE) on matrices with null partitioning vectors, or attempting to perform UPARTN (or
UMERGE) on a matrix for which the original set is the same size as the final set. In this case, the
partitioning vector generated by the program is null and this error is generated. In CALCV, if the DMAP
partition "hard-coded" and the set does not exist, you'll get this error. For example, if a UPARTN module
is using the Q-set, but the user hasn't used any Q set entries, this error will be issued. One remedy is to
conditionally jump over the problem DMAP based on parameters such as NOQSET, NORSET, etc.

System information:
This message implies that the particular subroutine does not have sufficient memory to meet its demands.
The subroutine or module description should be consulted to determine the memory requirements.
If an increase in memory is desired for only the module producing the error, an alter must be included in
the Executive section of the input file. An example of the alter is included below.
COMPILE DMAP=dmap,SOUIN=source $ source=MSCSOU or USRSOU ALTER #
$ before module TYPE PARM,,I,N,MVAL $
MVAL = GETSYS(MVAL,57) PUTSYS(value1,57) $
value1=increased memory value
ALTER #
$ after module PUTSYS(MVAL,57) $
ENDALTER $
One cause observed for this in the Bulk Data SORT module is too many continuation entries. An
avoidance is to have the Bulk Data already sorted and to increase available memory. Also, large THRU
ranges can cause excessive memory to be used.

System information: Fatal error in subroutine IOVAX while processing I/O request. I/O ERROR is either
program logic or possible machine error condition. If run is a restart and data block is from previous run,
END-OF-DATA may be caused by improper job setup. Otherwise, END-OF-DATA is probably caused
by a program logic error. If error is in job setup, correct DCL and resubmit. Otherwise, examine the RMS

hardware problems, forward the run to the Hexagon programming staff. Another possible cause is that the
disk is full. See Error Report 3161 in section 17.4 of MSC NASTRAN Reference Manual. Another possi-

THE SHIFTED STIFFNESS MATRIX IS NOT POSITIVE DEFINITE IN MHOUSEHOLDER
METHOD.
User information: The matrix sum K + LAMBDA * M is decomposed by the Cholesky method at the start
of the MGIV method of eigensolution. This decomposition requires that the matrix be positive-definite. A
condition that prevents this is a massless mechanism (for example, a point mass on an offset with no rota-
tional stiffness).
User information: The reduced mass matrix has columns that are not linearly independent. Common
causes are rotation degrees of freedom whose only inertia terms result from point masses on offsets. Use the

User information: The modal mass matrix cannot be decomposed by the Cholesky algorithm after merging
elastic and free-body modes. (Cholesky decomposition is used to orthogonalize the eigenvectors with
respect to the mass matrix.) Causes include the input of negative masses and the calculation of eigenvectors
for eigenvalues approaching machine infinity. Inspect the model or ask for fewer eigenvectors using of the
F2 option. When this condition occurs, the eigenvectors are not orthogonalized r normalized. The second
parameter of the READ or REIGL module is given a negative sign. This parameter is used in the solution
sequences to branch to an error exit after printing the real eigenvalue table. You may use a DMAP Alter to
print these eigenvectors if the cause of the problem is not apparent in the eigenvalues. The solution can be
forced to completion by changing the sign of this parameter. You should be aware that a poor quality of
solution is provided for this case. This poor solution may be useful for diagnosing the problem but
should not be used for other purposes. The error can occur when large offsets (large relative to the element
length) are used for the BEAM element and coupled mass is selected.

A negative term in matrix %1 is being raised to an exponent that is not a whole number.
User information: The DIAGONAL module allows raising terms in matrices to non-integer exponents
with the WHOLE option. Whenever the matrix terms are negative, the exponentiation fails if the term is
greater than the 3rd parameter of the DIAGONAL module. The 3rd parameter's default is 0.0.
The PARAMR module performs a similar function with real parameters and the POWER option.

User information: The message is given from the REIGL module which performs a necessary (but not suf-
ficient) check on the positive semi-definiteness of the indicated matrix. Look for evidence of negative mass,
such as minus signs on input. Negative terms on the factor of the indicated matrix
must be removed for correct answers.
Something has caused a negative term on the diagonal of the mass or stiffness matrix. Look for explicitly
defined negative mass and/or stiffness terms. Also, check the continuation entries on the PBEAM entry. An
incorrect entry for the SO field may lead to improper mass definition. For example, if SO is set to NO at a
particular X/XB location, the continuation entry for defining four stress locations on the cross section (C,
D, E, F) is not used. If SO is NO but the C, D, E, and F points are entered in error, negative mass terms
can result if either E1 or E2 entries are entered. The offending DOF can be traced using the USET tables.
The Lanczos method gives wrong answers for indefinite matrices. The existence of negative diagonal terms
indicates a subclass of indefinite matrix.
See the MSC NASTRAN Numerical Methods User's Guide for more information.
User information: If the product of the stress and the strain is negative, this fatal message will result.

User action: THE TOLERANCE MAY BE ADJUSTED WITH Q4TAPER KEYWORD ON THE
NASTRAN STATEMENT.
User information: Bad geometry can cause incorrect answers for CQUAD4 elements. The bad geometry
warning may be neglected if the element is in a non- critical part of the model, or if the element stress is
constant. If the element is in a critical part of the model, you are advised to refine your model so these bad
geometries do not occur. Skew and taper are representative of the amount that a CQUAD4 deviates
from being rectangular. Skew is the angle between the lines that join opposite midsides. When this angle is
less than 30 degrees the message is issued. For no skew this angle is 90 degrees. Taper is computed as fol-
lows: Connect opposite grid points and compute the area of the enclosed triangles. Ji is 1/2 of the area asso-
ciated with grid i and the adjacent grids of the enclosed triangle. Ja is 1/4 of J1+J2+J3+J4. If ABS((Ji-Ja)/Ja)
exceeds 0.5 then the message is issued. (The equation equals 0.0 if there is no taper.) Another way to think
of taper is the ratio of the areas on the two sides of a diagonal; if the ratio is greater than 3, then the taper
test fails. Note that these tests concern only geometry, and are made prior to the analysis. Another useful
test, made after the analysis, is the stress discontinuity calculation.

Warning: THE ABOVE NUMBER IS ONLY AN ESTIMATE, THE ACTUAL CORE SIZE NEEDED

User information:
If this message is issued in the symbolic phase, the memory estimate is not necessarily conservative and even
more memory may be required (although this estimate is fairly accurate for Version 68). Also, the memory
increase required is only for the symbolic phase. It is not unusual for the decomposition phase to require
more memory than the symbolic phase. To increase the chances for a successful run, increase the memory
even more than the amount indicated in this message. After the run is complete, determine the amount of
memory actually used and use this as a guideline for similar runs in the future. The user information mes-
sage is written if SYSTEM(166) = 1 (that is, if there is not enough memory for sparse decomposition, then

RANK DEFICIENCY HAS BEEN DETECTED. RANK =%1. FULL RANK =%2
User information:
This message is issued by the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) method which is used by the curve-fit-
ting algorithm for the hyperelastic material constants. The message occurs when the least squares problem
for estimation of the material parameters is rank deficient, i.e., the rank is less than the number of material
parameters (full rank). This message may be issued for either distortional (Aij) or volumetric (Di) parameter
fitting. The program will proceed to find a non-unique solution. However, it is best to try to avoid rank
deficiency by providing more experimental data for curve fitting or lowering the order of the strain energy
polynomial, NA or ND in the MATHP Bulk Data entry.

PLOT SETS ARE IGNORED.
User information: A PSETID has selected a plot set that will be used to reduce the size of the model stored
to the MNF. This feature can only be used if mass invariants are also generated and stored. Since no mass
invariant output was requested, usage of a plot set is not possible and is being ignored. Data for all elements

User action: If a plot set is desired, use the ADAMSMNF Case Control Command MINVAR describer to
select an option other than NONE.
User information: The ADAMSMNF Case Control Command has specified a plot set, but the plot set
