Qp0lGetPathFromFileID how to check errors in AS400

Hi 

I'm reading a line from an IBM created journal and I want to display the name of the file that was accessed. 
I'm using this API, and getting the results I want when everything is ok. 

D GetPathFID      PR              *   ExtProc('Qp0lGetPathFromFileID') 
D buf                             *   Value                            
D size                          10U 0 Value                            
D fileid                        16A     
                               
D rc              s               *                                          

c                   clear                   buffer          512

c                   eval      rc = GetPathFID(%ADDR(Buffer)
c                                  : %SIZE(Buffer)         
c                                  : obj_fid  )            

        
Sometimes I get no result with this API, and the Buffer is empty, and rc gets SPP:*NULL. 
After doing some reading on the IBM site, I understand that this means there is an error, but how do I retrieve the error? 

Thank you 
Steff
