Basically, it means that you've hit a SIGILL, an illegal instruction signal, during the execution of the BASIC program, at address 5004.
If that part of the error message is consistent (the address 5004), you can determine WHERE in the program it is failing by looking at the VLIST listing.
I'd suggest contacting IBM support, as this represents some internal failure that you need to have assessed and corrected. It may be a known issue that already has a fix.

We have a problem with a piece of code that we have been debugging all day so far with no progress.
A transaction process runs through the same bit of code several times without a problem, then for no 'apparent' reason (I guess there is one there some-where) the programme kicks up with:
Abnormal Termination of UniVerse.
Fault type is 4. Layer type is BASIC run machine
Fault occurred in BASIC program <prog name> at address 5004.
Can anyone tell me what this fault means - if anything?
We have re-compiled the code, checked all the data files for corruptions and thrown it into debug - unfortunately because we cannot re-create the problem consistently, it may take hours still to find the exact place where it crashes.
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks in advance,
Mike
