SYMPTOMS

After SNA Server MS-DOS client Setup copies all files to the destination Workgroup Connections client with NetWare installed, Setup displays the following error message:
The following error has occurred: CSU7520: Can't open file %1
This does not happen on a Banyan Vines or Named Pipes client.

CAUSE

Setup is spawning a piece of code that attempts to modify the SYSTEM.INI, even though there is no SYSTEM.INI present on the client.

RESOLUTION

Microsoft has updated the file <sna_cd_root>\CLIENTS\MSDOS\SETUP.EXE to correct this problem.

Setup now tries to modify the Workgroup Connection SYSTEM.INI file only if it is first detected by Setup.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server for Windows NT. This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server for Windows NT, 2.11 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
