View source for MSIR.0682 LONGSTRING error: truncation, no Sirius debug info

A longstring variable, or $function or method result was used in a context that would result in the longstring being implicitly truncated. The most common examples of this are assignment of a longstring to a shorter, non-longstring variable, and the passing of a longstring longer than 255 bytes to a non-longstring capable $function. One somewhat unusual but confusing case that can produce this error is assignment of a longstring with trailing blanks to an image item with STRIP set (the default). Because STRIP results in the trailing blanks effectively disappearing, this is considered a truncation error.

Longstring truncation issues, and methods for avoiding truncation errors, are covered on the [[Longstrings]] page.
 
To get more debugging info such as the procedure and line number in which the error occurred, rerun the request with the DEBUGUL user parameter set or the 1 bit set in the SIRFACT system parameter. The latter can only be done if [http://m204wiki.rocketsoftware.com/images/f/fb/FactrNew.pdf SirFact] is installed.
