Timestamp too old for forest variable1 (variable2)

Cause

A timestamp less than the oldest timestamp preserved in the database was specified for a point-in-time query or rollback.

Note: If the merge timestamp is set to the default of 0 and the database has completed all merges since the last update or delete, then query statements that specify any timestamp older than the current system timestamp will throw the XDMP-OLDSTAMP exception. The error occurs because a merge timestamp value of 0 specifies that no obsolete fragments are to be retained.

Response

Modify the query or rollback operation timestamp. For example, change the timestamp parameter passed to xdmp:eval, xdmp:invoke, or xdmp:spawn.
