It is a noun, so it does not form a past. . The related verb is "err".
He erred when he said that.

We never said that when I worked in IT, but i guess I'm not up-to-date. We said 'The program bombed (out)'.
I cpould imagine a sports commentator saying a player 'errored out'.Those guys invent their own grammar.
