PRB: Using OSR2 of Windows 95 Yields HTTP Error 500 (165891)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual InterDev 1.0
This article was previously published under Q165891 SYMPTOMS
Using Microsoft Windows 95 release OSR2 as a server with Personal Web
Server that ships with OSR2, files larger than approximately 4K cannot be
added or saved to a project. The error message encountered is:
HTTP Error 500, cannot connect to server
Examination of the PWS log SENDRECV.OUT shows an error code of 87, which
means "invalid parameter."
CAUSE
The version of Personal Web Server installed with the Windows 95 OEM
Service Release (build 1111) does not support the addition of files
exceeding 4K in size to Visual InterDev projects.
RESOLUTION
Visual InterDev includes a more recent release of Personal Web Server that
has no such limitation. Remove PWS from the Control Panel's Network
Properties, restart the system as prompted, and install the version of PWS
included with Visual InterDev.
