ID: Q91645

1.00 1.10 MS-DOS kbtool kberrmsg kbbuglist kbfixlist

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Trace Utility for MS-DOS, versions 1.0 and 1.1

SYMPTOMS

In the Microsoft Trace Utility, when the user specifies the fully qualified path to a MOVE.TRC file that is not in the current directory, execution halts with the following error message:

   TR1010: cannot find trace file

RESOLUTION

Change the current directory to the directory that contains MOVE.TRC, then run the Trace utility.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft Trace Utility versions 1.0 and 1.1 for MS-DOS. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Trace Utility version 1.2 for MS-DOS.

MORE INFORMATION

The MOVEAPI.TXT file, provided with Microsoft C/C++ version 7.0, includes the following text:

   To run TRACE, use the following syntax

      TRACE [options] [tracefile]

   The <tracefile> is the MOVE.TRC file created during a tracing
   session. You can specify a path with the filename.

As indicated above, if the MOVE.TRC file is in a directory other than the current directory, the Trace Utility does not run.
