    NAME

    sysexits
    
     - preferable exit codes for programs
    
     
    

    SYNOPSIS

       #include <sysexits.h>
     

    DESCRIPTION

    According to style(9), it is not a good practice to call exit(3) with arbitrary values to indicate a failure condition when ending a program. Instead, the pre-defined exit codes from should be used, so the caller of the process can get a rough estimation about the failure class without looking up the source code.

    The successful exit is always indicated by a status of 0, or EX_OK Error numbers begin at EX__BASE to reduce the possibility of clashing with other exit statuses that random programs may already return. The meaning of the codes is approximately as follows:

    EX_USAGE (64)
    The command was used incorrectly, e.g., with the wrong number of arguments, a bad flag, a bad syntax in a parameter, or whatever.
    EX_DATAERR (65)
    The input data was incorrect in some way. This should only be used for user's data and not system files.
    EX_NOINPUT (66)
    An input file (not a system file) did not exist or was not readable. This could also include errors like ``message '' to a mailer (if it cared to catch it).
    EX_NOUSER (67)
    The user specified did not exist. This might be used for mail addresses or remote logins.
    EX_NOHOST (68)
    The host specified did not exist. This is used in mail addresses or network requests.
    EX_UNAVAILABLE (69)
    A service is unavailable. This can occur if a support program or file does not exist. This can also be used as a catchall message when something you wanted to do does not work, but you do not know why.
    EX_SOFTWARE (70)
    An internal software error has been detected. This should be limited to non-operating system related errors as possible.
    EX_OSERR (71)
    An operating system error has been detected. This is intended to be used for such things as ``cannot fork'' ``cannot create pipe'' or the like. It includes things like getuid returning a user that does not exist in the passwd file.
    EX_OSFILE (72)
    Some system file (e.g., /etc/passwd /var/run/utmp etc.) does not exist, cannot be opened, or has some sort of error (e.g., syntax error).
    EX_CANTCREAT (73)
    A (user specified) output file cannot be created.
    EX_IOERR (74)
    An error occurred while doing I/O on some file.
    EX_TEMPFAIL (75)
    Temporary failure, indicating something that is not really an error. In sendmail, this means that a mailer (e.g.) could not create a connection, and the request should be reattempted later.
    EX_PROTOCOL (76)
    The remote system returned something that was ``not possible'' during a protocol exchange.
    EX_NOPERM (77)
    You did not have sufficient permission to perform the operation. This is not intended for file system problems, which should use EX_NOINPUT or EX_CANTCREAT but rather for higher level permissions.
    EX_CONFIG (78)
    Something was found in an unconfigured or misconfigured state.

    The numerical values corresponding to the symbolical ones are given in parenthesis for easy reference.
