Does anyone know the meaning of an error 1242, or 204. More importantly, is there a command ( either sqlplus or cmd line ) to describe an error based on it's number. |

I know how to do it in 8.1.7. See if 9i has an oerr binary.
AIX6/home/oracle8i>oerr ora 1242 01242, 00000, "data file suffered media failure: database in NOARCHIVELOG mode" // *Cause: The database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode and a database file was // detected as inaccessible due to media failure. // *Action: Restore accessibility to the file mentioned in the error stack // and restart the instance. |

You may read Oracle manuals or use sqlerrm() function (don't forget about set serverout on):
exec dbms_output.put_line(sqlerrm(-1242)) |
