The Demo Link Services script paths are not updated in the registry after you upgrade to Host Integration Server 2004 (884376)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Host Integration Server 2004

INTRODUCTION

After you upgrade to Microsoft Host Integration Server 2004, if the Demo Link Services was configured in the earlier version of Host Integration Server before the upgrade, the Demo Link Services do not start because the paths to the script files were not updated in the registry. For example, the previous path of the Demo Link Services in the registry was the following:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SnaDemo1\Parameters\ExtraParameters ScriptFile=C:\Program Files\Host Integration Server\system\3270 Continuous Demo.dem

After you upgrade to Host Integration Server 2004, the new location of the Demo Link Services in Host Integration Server 2004 is the following:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SnaDemo1\Parameters\ExtraParameters ScriptFile=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Host Integration Server\system\hwsetup\Demo\3270 Continuous Demo.dem

MORE INFORMATION

The Demo Link Services provide demo scripts that you can use to demonstrate host connectivity without an actual live connection to a host.

WORKAROUND

To work around this issue, configure the Demo Link Services in SNA Manager, and then select the appropriate demo script. The registry entry will be updated automatically.
