Informix Error -29015: Non-bind related DDM command (codepoint=codepoint) attempted during bind.

Cause and resolution

Non-bind related DDM command (codepoint=codepoint) attempted during bind.

A remote execution of SQL statement or a remote command was attempted while a remote bind was in progress. During bind, only Bind, End Bind, ROLLBACK, or COMMIT are allowed.

This message indicates a Gateway internal logic error. The DDM command in question is returned as a token in SQLERRM.

Applications from end users should not go into bind mode. The only time a package bind should occur is the package-bind process in the gwdba utility. Rerun the application. If the error recurs, note all circumstances and contact IBM Informix Technical Support.

Oninit® Troubleshooting Guidance

Reasons / Common Causes

-29015 fires when a remote SQL statement execution or command is attempted while a remote bind is in progress — per the official guidance, only Bind, End Bind, ROLLBACK, or COMMIT are allowed during bind; this indicates a Gateway internal logic error. The DDM command codepoint is returned as a token in SQLERRM.

  1. A non-bind DDM command attempted during an active bind, per the official guidance — a Gateway internal logic error; end-user applications shouldn't enter bind mode at all.
Solutions / Resolution
  1. Rerun the application, per the official guidance — bind mode is only expected during the gwdba utility's package-bind process, not in end-user applications.
  2. If the error recurs, note all circumstances and contact IBM Informix Technical Support, per the official guidance.
Examples
N/A

No specific triggering statement is documented beyond a non-bind command during bind.

Diagnostic Checks
  1. Confirm the application isn't entering bind mode itself — only gwdba's package-bind process should trigger it.
