864.0. "X.25 data read failed: Operation failed - call cleared" by IAMOSI::LEUNG () Wed Feb 05 1997 14:09

OSF V3.2C
X.25 V2.0A

Customer has an X.29 application which accepts remote X.29 connections.
Intermittently, the application would fail on a given connection with the above
error message in daemon.log. Then sometimes (NOT always), current X.29 connections
to that application would hang and new connections would fail. Customer has to
stop and restart the application to get things to normal.

That error message "X.25 data read failed: Operation failed - call cleared" is not
listed in the Problem Solving Guide. Can anyone please give more details about it?
What operation has failed?
I have asked the customer to get an X.25 level 3 trace.

Also: in the deamon.log, what is the meaning of "Unexpected message from PAD: type
= 0"? Customer says that this may not be related to the data read failed given
that he has seen the problem even without the unexpected message.


Thanks
Dennis

> Feb  4 12:16:55 apn_alpha_2 x29logind[3080]: X.25 data read failed: Operation
failed - call cleared

means the call unexpectedly cleared from the PAD (or network) end and
consequently the read from the nwetork failed.

> Feb  4 12:06:40 apn_alpha_2 x29logind[3068]: Unexpected message from PAD: type
= 0

means that x29logind received a packet with the Q bit set (indicating X.29
control message rather than data) and the first byte (type code) was 0 (PAD
parameter indication). x29login received an unsolicited PAD parameter 
indication message.
