bad FP or bad saved FP at pointer-addr in call stack, can't read frame near frame-addr Facility: DEBUG, VMS Debugger Explanation: The debugger is attempting to chain down the call stack, following frame pointers. The FP register (if pointer- addr is "FFFFFFFF") or the saved frame pointer at location pointer-addr points to a frame at least part of which is not read accessible near location frame-addr. User Action: Determine what part of your code is writing into the FP register or overwriting the saved frame pointer on the call stack (or a preceding saved frame pointer) and correct it. Since the debugger looks at the call stack to symbolize addresses, you may suppress some of these messages by typing the command "SET MODE NOSYMBOLIC".
