DIAGNOSTICS

Error: $object is not a collection.

Error: Cannot create a $type to add this to my collection.

    Some options are specified to create a $type object, which is native to this collection. However, for some reason this failed.

Error: Cannot load collection module for $type ($class).

    Either the specified $type does not exist, or that module named $class returns compilation errors. If the type as specified in the warning is not the name of a package, you specified a nickname which was not defined. Maybe you forgot the 'require' the package which defines the nickname.

Error: Cannot rename $name into $newname: already exists

Error: Cannot rename $name into $newname: doesn't exist

Error: Creation of a collection via $class failed.

    The $class did compile, but it was not possible to create an object of that class using the options you specified.

Error: Don't know what type of collection you want to add.

    If you add a collection, it must either by a collection object or a list of options which can be used to create a collection object. In the latter case, the type of collection must be specified.

Warning: No collection $name

    The collection with $name does not exist and can not be created.

Error: Wrong type of role for $collection: requires a $expect but got a $type

    Each $collection groups sets of roles of one specific type ($expect). You cannot add objects of a different $type.
