Informix Error -1330: A row could not be inserted into a temporary report table.

Cause and resolution

A row could not be inserted into a temporary report table.

Within the report definition, 4GL generated SQL statements that would save rows into a temporary table. However, an error occurred while rows were being inserted. Probably no disk space is left in the database. Look for other error messages that might give more details.

Oninit® Troubleshooting Guidance

Reasons / Common Causes

-1330 fires when 4GL-generated SQL fails to insert a row into a report's already-created temporary table — per the official guidance, insufficient disk space in the database is the primary cause, though other issues may show up via additional accompanying error messages.

  1. Insufficient disk space in the database, per the official guidance — the primary, named cause.
  2. Some other underlying issue, per the official guidance's own hedge, surfaced via an accompanying error message.
Solutions / Resolution
  1. Check available disk space in the database.
  2. Check for additional accompanying error messages, per the official guidance, for a more specific underlying cause.
Examples
N/A

No specific triggering statement is documented beyond the temp-table insert itself failing — check disk space first.

Diagnostic Checks
  1. Check available disk space in the database.
  2. Check for other accompanying error messages for more specific diagnostic detail.

A row insert into the report's temp table failed, most likely from insufficient disk space — check available space and any accompanying error messages.
