FIX: Problem with Remote Builds on Novell Netware Servers (123951)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q123951 SYMPTOMS
Visual C++ projects that are located on Netware servers under Windows
NT version 3.5 may not build. Two possible errors are:
fatal error C2308: program database file, 'filename.pdb', has an
obsolete format, delete it and recompile.
fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR
(compiler file 'msc1.cpp', line 1056)
Please choose the Technical Support command on the Visual C++
Help menu, or open the Technical Support help file for more
information.
The errors do not occur if the project is local or is located on Windows NT
Advanced Server machines.
CAUSE
The problem relates to the memory mapped file I/O and the Novell Netware
redirector (NWRDR.SYS).
RESOLUTION
These problems can be fixed by installing Service Pack 2 for Microsoft
Windows NT, version 3.5.
You can work around Error C2308 by using the /Z7 compiler switch.
This will force the compiler to keep the debugging information in the
.OBJ files and not write it to .PDB files.
You can work around Error C1001 by turning off the compiler option for
the Pre-compiled headers in the Project|Settings|C/C++|Pre-compiled
headers dialog box.
Building the .PDB file or the .PCH file on a local drive also works around
the problem.
STATUS
This problem is fixed by applying Service Pack 2 for Windows NT version
3.5. Please see Knowledge Base article 121693 for more information.
