All about exit code

Hi, I am working on Solaris 8 and the "intro" man page says, "Upon termination, each command returns two bytes of status, one supplied by the system and given the cause for termination, and (in the case of 'normal' termination) one supplied by the program. The former byte is 0 for normal...

Where can I find a list of exit codes? (Exit code 64)

I'm receiving an exit code 64 in our batch scheduler (BMC product control-m) executing a PERL script on UX-HP. Can you tell me where I can find a list of exit codes and their meaning. I'm assuming the exit code is from the Unix operating system not PERL.

UNIX exit code 11

We have a batch Unix process that runs during the day and it is getting an exit code 11 from Unix. It finishes a sqlplus step and gets the exit code 11 before it starts the next step. This used to happen once a year and now is happening more often (but not every time the process runs). We have...

wait.h

wait.h(3HEAD)							      Headers							     wait.h(3HEAD)

NAME

       wait.h, wait - wait status

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/wait.h>

DESCRIPTION

       When  a	process waits for status from its children using either the wait(3C) or waitpid(3C) function, the status returned can be evaluated
       with the following macros, defined in <sys/wait.h>. These macros evaluate to integral expressions. The stat argument to these macros is the
       integer value returned from wait() or waitpid().

       WCOREDUMP(stat)		       If the value of WIFSIGNALED (stat) is non-zero, this macro evaluates to a non-zero value if a core image of
				       the terminated child was created.

       WEXITSTATUS(stat)	       If the value of	WIFEXITED(stat) is non-zero, this macro evaluates to the exit code that the child  process
				       passed to  _exit() (see exit(2)) or exit(3C), or the value that the child process returned from main.

       WIFCONTINUED(stat)	       Evaluates to a non-zero value if status was returned for a child process that has continued.

       WIFEXITED(stat)		       Evaluates to a non-zero value if status was returned for a child process that terminated normally.

       WIFSIGNALED(stat)	       Evaluates to a non-zero value if status was returned for a child process that terminated due to the receipt
				       of a signal.

       WIFSTOPPED(stat) 	       Evaluates to a non-zero value if status was returned for a child process that is currently stopped.

       WSTOPSIG(stat)		       If the value of WIFSTOPPED(stat) is non-zero, this macro evaluates to the number of the signal that  caused
				       the child process to stop.

       WTERMSIG(stat)		       If  the	value  of   WIFSIGNALED(stat)  is  non-zero, this macro evaluates to the number of the signal that
				       caused the termination of the child process.

       The <sys/wait.h> header defines the symbolic constants listed below for use with waitpid(3C).

       WNOHANG	       Do not hang if no status is available; return immediately.

       WUNTRACED       Report status of stopped child process.

       The symbolic constants listed below are defined as possible values for the options argument to waitid(2).

       WEXITED	       Wait for processes that have exited.

       WSTOPPED        Status is returned for any child that has stopped upon receipt of a signal.

       WCONTINUED      Status is returned for any child that was stopped and has been continued.

       WNOHANG	       Return immediately if there are no children to wait for.

       WNOWAIT	       Keep the process whose status is returned in infop in a waitable state.

       The type idtype_t is defined as an enumeration type whose possible values include the following:

       P_ALL
       P_PID
       P_PGID

       The id_t and pid_t types are defined as described in <sys/types.h>.

       The siginfo_t type is defined as described in <signal.h>.

       The rusage structure is defined as described in <sys/resource.h>.

       Inclusion of the <sys/wait.h> header can also make visible all symbols from <signal.h> and <sys/resource.h>.
