Maintenance Mode Windows Client Installs to Wrong Directory

ID: Q182564

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft SNA Server version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

In maintenance mode setup, the Setup program of SNA Server Windows 3.x client always tries to install to the Sna.win directory. This occurs even if you installed the Windows 3.x client to a directory other than Sna.win.

CAUSE

The maintenance mode setup gets the installation directory from the Snasetup.ini file.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem:

1. Copy the SNA Client for Windows 3.x program files from the Clients\win3x

   directory on the SNA Server CD to your hard disk drive.

2. Modify the "Destination Path= " parameter in Snasetup.ini to reflect the

   path where the Windows 3.x client is installed.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 4.0. This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server version 4.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining this Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
